Cole Haan's best shoes, including the Zerogrand, the Originalgrand, and the GrandPro Tennis, have been ripe for the picking over the last month with steep savings on both its own website and on Amazon. But right now, the brand is in the middle of a Fourth of July sale that's offering shoppers up to 50% off its top sellers with an additional 20% off select styles at checkout, including a business casual retro running sneaker that could very well be your next go-to.
The Cole Haan GrandPro Ashland Sneakers are on sale right now for as low as $72—up to 52% off the normal $150 price. These sneakers are one of Cole Haan's newer hits, boasting more than 350 five-star ratings from shoppers who say they're "the perfect combination of style and support." They're now marked down in six colors and come in sizes 7 to 13, and though the price ranges based on the color selected, each is still under $100.
The GrandPro Ashland Sneaker is Cole Haan's take on a retro runner that exudes the brand's proclivities for sharp style. It's made with a mixed media suede and leather upper and often uses contrasting colors to make it pop. It offers a super comfy ride thanks to the bouncy EVA foam midsole and has plenty of grip, as most '70s running shoes did, with a reverse waffle sole.
Although this sneaker is new and competing with a roster of amazing kicks, shoppers have already taken to it. "Perfect work sneaker," as one shopper put it. "These shoes are extremely comfortable, it makes it hard to wear anything else. Very stylish and looks even better in person." Another shopper agreed, noting that they "can be worn as sneakers or as golf shoes."
For others, it comes down to versatility and being able to wear them anywhere. "I love this shoe, it looks great and is versatile," a shopper said. "They are very comfortable, true to size, and I’ve received multiple compliments. I have it in three different colors and recommend it to anyone looking for a pair of shoes they can dress up or wear casually."
If you're looking for your next great summer sneaker and want to nail the midpoint between plain and sporty, Cole Haan's GrandPro Ashland needs to be at the top of the list, especially while it's on sale for as low as $72. Prices go back up when Cole Haan's Fourth of July sale ends on July 5, so make sure to grab yours ASAP.
