Tapestry, Inc.’s TPR flagship Coach brand continues to deliver exceptional momentum, emerging as the key driver of the company’s strong second-quarter fiscal 2026 performance. Coach’s sustained brand heat, strong customer acquisition and product innovation are reinforcing its position in the accessible luxury market while supporting Tapestry’s long-term growth outlook.
During the quarter, Coach posted 25% year-over-year revenue growth, significantly outpacing expectations and accelerating from the prior quarter. The brand added 2.9 million customers globally, with Gen Z shoppers remaining a major growth engine. Management highlighted that rising relevance among younger consumers is also positively influencing demand across older demographics, broadening the brand’s reach and durability.
A major pillar of this momentum remains Coach’s core leather goods business, where demand stayed broad-based across key franchises such as Tabby, Brooklyn and the New York family. Importantly, both average unit retail and unit volumes grew at mid-teen rates, signaling healthy full-price demand rather than promotion-led sales. This reflects the brand’s strong value proposition, craftsmanship and disciplined pricing strategy.
Geographically, Coach’s momentum was equally compelling, with North America sales up 27%, Greater China rising 37% and Europe increasing 26%. These gains underline the brand’s global resonance and effective regional execution, supported by targeted marketing investments and immersive retail experiences.
Tapestry remains confident in Coach’s long-term trajectory, supported by a strong innovation pipeline, sustained marketing investments and immersive retail experiences. With management targeting Coach to evolve into a $10-billion brand over time, its current momentum reinforces its role as a durable and scalable growth engine within the company’s broader strategy.
