Cole Haan to Replace Johnston & Murphy in Disney Springs Town Center

The shop’s visible window ads and hiring signs point to a fall 2026 opening and reflect Disney Springs’ effort to keep premium retail in high‑traffic spaces.

Overview

  • Reporters from multiple outlets observed Cole Haan window posters and an “Opening Soon” sign on the vacant Johnston & Murphy storefront in Town Center, with on-site hiring notices visible.
  • Cole Haan told WDW News Today it is targeting a fall 2026 opening for the new Disney Springs location while Disney has not issued an official date.
  • The store will occupy the space between Fit2Run and Tommy Bahama, a high-traffic section of Town Center that has seen several recent tenant changes.
  • The move continues Disney Springs’ pattern of quickly refilling closed shops with premium, non-Disney brands after recent exits such as Shore and Francesca’s and during arrivals like Vuori and Level99.
  • The timing could translate into strong initial traffic and local jobs because summer is one of Walt Disney World’s busiest periods and the store is already advertising hires.
