Prof. Scott Galloway on Coach's acquisition of Stuart Weitzman

—
Excerpt from Bloomberg -- "I think Coach is a fantastic brand, and it's been counted out and rumors of its death have been greatly exaggerated... Michael Kors and Kate Spade have sucked all the oxygen out of the room because they've done a great job, but look for Coach to come back. I like this acquisition... A lot of great specialty retail brands were built on the back of shoes. Jimmy Choo, Christian Louboutin. Kenneth Cole originally started out as a shoe guy. So they get great domain expertise here. It says it's an accretive acquisition. It sounds like a win."
