The next generation is built for movement, momentum, and everything that comes next.

NEW YORK, Dec. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Cole Haan introduces GrandPrø Tennis 2.0, the evolution of the court sneaker that launched the brand into the sneakers category a decade ago. Featuring the new FeatherFeel Cushioning Platform™, GrandPrø Tennis 2.0 remains light in form and feeling, designed for the pace of modern life.

When Cole Haan launched the original GrandPrø Tennis in 2016, it reimagined the classic leather court sneaker with a radically lightweight build—reducing bulk while maximizing flexibility, rebound and all-day comfort. Paving the way for what has become the brand's fastest-growing category, GrandPrø Tennis 2.0 carries forward that pared-back design approach: keeping everything you need and nothing you don't.

"GrandPrø Tennis was a breakthrough for us 10 years ago. It proved that a classic court sneaker could be unbelievably light and comfortable without losing its style or substance," said Scott Patt, Chief Creative Officer at Cole Haan. "With GrandPrø Tennis 2.0, we've taken that idea even further. It's more streamlined and engineered to feel unthinkably light and incredibly easy to wear."

At the center of the update is the FeatherFeel Cushioning Platform™, Cole Haan's newest and lightest cushioning platform to date. By rebalancing foam density, refining construction and strategically removing unnecessary elements, the 360˚ design provides a lighter, energetic feel underfoot while providing the durability and dependable traction of a full rubber outsole.

"GrandPrø Tennis 2.0 was shaped by what we've heard from our customers over the years—they want comfort and style without compromise," said Krissie Millan, Chief Marketing Officer at Cole Haan. "GrandPrø Tennis 2.0 delivers on that. As we head into a new year, that's exactly what this sneaker is designed to do: keep up and feel easy, so you're ready for whatever comes next."

To mark the 10-year milestone, the first drop of GrandPrø Tennis 2.0 debuts in classic white leather with green heel-tab detailing and limited-edition anniversary branding, followed by additional colorways in ivory, gold, and black. The global launch campaign "Feel Lighter Than Ever" highlights the sneaker's refined construction and everyday versatility. 

More than an update, GrandPrø Tennis 2.0 signals Cole Haan's continued momentum in the sneaker marketplace. Sneakers now represent over 35% of the brand's global footwear sales with growth across casual, performance and emerging lifestyle categories, and planned expansion in 2026. 

GrandPrø Tennis 2.0 assortment retails from $150-$170 USD and will be available globally beginning December 31, exclusively at colehaan.com and select Cole Haan stores, with expanded distribution to retail partners in February. Additional colorways will drop in March 2026.

DANANG, Vietnam, Dec. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Located at the heart of Central Vietnam's tourism capital, Ariyana Convention Centre Danang (ACC) has solidified its position as an architectural and service icon, setting new benchmarks for the MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) industry. Beyond its prime beachfront location, Ariyana serves as a crossroads of elite service values, proven by prestigious international accolades and a rich history of hosting global summits.

The distinct standing of Ariyana Convention Centre Danang is built on a foundation of recognition from the world's leading organizations. The title "Best Convention Centre in Vietnam" from the World Luxury Travel Awards serves as a testament to its commitment to the highest luxury service standards. Simultaneously, the "Viet Nam Best MICE Venue 2025" award, presented by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, reinforces its leadership in the region. As the only convention center in Central Vietnam to hold this duo of prestigious titles, ACC continues its journey of creating professional and sophisticated event spaces.

The year 2025 marks a booming era for the Furama - Ariyana Danang International Tourism Complex. The resounding success of the Vietnam Logistics Forum (VLF 2025), chaired by the Prime Minister, affirmed ACC's capacity to handle complex logistics and ensure absolute security. This was followed by the Danang Asian Film Festival (DANAFF 2025) – a gathering of international stars and cinematic masterpieces – along with the Danang International Tourism Mart and the Switzerland - Vietnam Economic Forum. These milestones not only enhance the complex's prestige but also create a catalyst for the development of the "Central Heritage Road."

The core strength that allows ACC to satisfy even the most discerning international clients is its flexibility. The convention center boasts a magnificent, pillarless Grand Ballroom with a ceiling height of up to 9 meters, equipped with state-of-the-art audio-visual systems, making it the preferred choice for strategic conferences and large-scale trade exhibitions. Notably, Ariyana Convention Centre Danang also holds a leading position as a premier venue for lavish weddings and Gala events. With a romantic beachfront Mandap space and specialized culinary services – meeting strict standards for Jain, Vegan, and Halal cuisines – it has become a magnet for "mega weddings" from the Indian market and beyond.

The influence of Ariyana Convention Centre Danang is amplified by its direct connection to the Furama Resort & Villas Danang. This synergy creates a perfect "All-in-One" solution, providing world-class meeting facilities alongside 5-star accommodations, luxury spas, golf, and convenient access to UNESCO World Heritage sites. With a strategic vision and meticulous attention to detail, ACC is not just a venue, but a strategic partner dedicated to fostering sustainable success for global clients.

Looking toward 2026 and beyond, Ariyana Convention Centre Danang is committed to walking alongside Danang City on its path to becoming a top event destination on the continent. We promise to continuously innovate, investing in sustainable infrastructure and international-standard services to attract more large-scale events, thereby driving the strong growth of the MICE industry. With the ambition to elevate the Danang brand, Ariyana Convention Centre Danang stands ready as a "pioneer" in raising the city's status on the global event map, delivering world-class experiences and success beyond expectations.
