Kenneth Cole Shoe

Kenneth Cole is an American fashion house.  Kenneth Cole, the founder, initially named his company Kenneth Cole Incorporated. The name was changed to Kenneth Cole Productions when Cole applied for a permit under the guise of shooting a motion picture called “The Birth of a Shoe Company.” This permit allowed Cole to debut his new clothing line from a borrowed truck instead of a show room. In honor of its crafty start, Kenneth Cole Productions, Inc. remains the company name.
