Actor Michael B. Jordan has been selected as the first-ever global brand ambassador for Coach menswear collection.
The Black Panther star will also appear in advertisements for Coach footwear, accessories, and fragrance.
The first images from the spring 2019 line dropped on Wednesday, Jan. 2, with the main photo showing Michael sitting on a vintage car at a “faded carnival” while posing in leather trousers, a black leather jacket, and a Rivington Backpack In Signature Canvas — all by Coach.
Another PR image shows the 31-year-old sporting a blue leather jacket with color coordinated trousers and boots, while a third photo depicts him leaning on a vehicle in a colorblock shearling jacket and loose-fit black trousers.
The items can be purchased online here.
“I’m proud to be the face of Coach men’s,” Jordan said in a statement. “I’ve been a fan of Coach for a long time and truly respect their inclusive and optimistic values.”
The campaign also features the new season’s hero bags, including the Signature Rivington Backpack, the Rivington Belt Bag, and the Metropolitan Carryall.
The campaign was shot by photographer Craig McDean, while Jane How styled him, according to WENN.com.
Rivington Backpack In Signature Canvas in Khaki/Black Copper ($595).
C143 Runner (Sneaker) with Coach Patch in “Multi-Blue” colorway ($250).
Coach Signature “Couch” Hoodie with leather details. Crafted out of soft Neoprene with the words “Couch” and “Leatherware” embroidered on the hoodie. The hoodie is on sale for $347.50 (originally $695).
Photos by Coach
cute bag and jacket….not really feeling the shoes….but ok.
“I’ve been a fan of Coach for a long time and truly respect their inclusive and optimistic values.”
Good for him. But Coach is a luxury brand and there is nothing “inclusive” about it. I hate that blacks focus on material consumption. Particularly with brands that didn’t want any “urban” association for decades — until realizing that we would spend our last penny and go into debt for a designer bag.
BWAHAHAHAHAHHAA!
Yeah, those sneakers are butt ugly.
nice pieces…. congrats to him.
(I’ve only ever purchase one coach item, and that was on deep discount at the outlet a couple of years ago. before that, i wouldn’t even look at a coach bag because they had taken over the DMV… now we’re overrun with mike cores, smh)
Can we have another black man please? Where is Idris?
I’m not into coach, but Michael B. Jordan… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7764d44a425ae9266890da4b3ac5690125a8a514c8db11ff433a28df5a53f3eb.gif
I always wanted stock in this company and exactly what I brought myself. All about elevation this year. Bring on the new customers Michael ?
I am a fan of Coach bags (NOT THE ONES WITH THE C’s ALL OVER IT! ICK!). Haven’t purchased one in years! I currently don’t own any.
no backwards hustlin’ huh, Shug? LOL!
Nice looking ad but he’s still funny looking and Coach is still the poor man’s Louis Vuitton, LOL
I am not a fan of MK either……..but I did however, get these one pair of MK shoes. They are space age pimpin’, if I do say so myself. LOL But you wouldn’t know they were MK unless you asked. #notalabelinsight
I’ll take a classic bag over a trendy bag any day. LOL
Yeah, I was just about to stop liking Michael Kors cuz every chick in the hood got a bag, UNTIL I saw his new line of shoes and bookbags at Macy’s…then I changed my mind. His line is FIRE…and it’s not really that cheap, either….the bag I wanted was $368. I couldn’t swing that at that particular moment in time. I’ll go back later, LOL
No ma’am ??
Me too. Classic and until I get it like I’m in my own compound I don’t see the need to go higher. And now that I have shares I will buy solely them.
YAAASSSSS!!!!!
See the seed you help planted since old blog Queen?!!! Our time this year.
Seems like just yesterday when I attended MBJ’s breakout private screening of “Fruitville Station” he seemed like a nice young man seeing him there.
He looks great, nice ad! OT: I still have my Coach bags I purchased when I got a “real” job almost 30 years ago, still in good shape. Might have to break them out?
To me a men don’t look right with any brand of backpack on…..Unless and only for traveling, but for a everyday or hanging out…..NAH
He do fine.
Can we get a post on Phedra fine a*s man ?
I’m about sick and tired of monogrammed LV too particularly the neverfulls
Coach did have some well made leather bags.
YASSSSSSS!!!!! I can’t even front, I was hoping he was going to “Shemar Moore” her, but he confirmed and I died a lil’ inside!! LMAO!!
Yaasss! That duffle hobo bag was everything!
THIS!!!!!
AMEN TO YOUR ENTIRE COMMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awww, glad I can help. But *pssst – lean closer*, when YOU JUST mentioned you purchased stock in Coach…….guess who just bit and said “I’m about to do that too.” LOL
Do you have IG? Follow SupaCent and Realbbjudy (I think that’s her name). I LUH THEM!!!!!!
These prices aren’t as high as I thought they’d be. Nice design
NEVER owned MK and NEVER will! I ALWAYS considered it a “thot brand”
I’m with you. After school…it’s a wrap
This is a nice looking ad ….. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c1425c997ed3319b16098cad0d4bebaabde80cd22860d557863b4ff2c949aed9.gif
they last long and there is one i want to rock but it would look too old school now. i don’t like the newer ones or pebble leather ones.
Those sneakers are hideous! That hoodie too.
i also have backpack and travel bags. last FOREVER.
From what I remember Coach had some high quality leather bags. I like these pieces except for the monogram being all over the place but that’s how I feel about all goods. I don’t want your name all over my stuff. Those that can spot quality will know. All my stuff is low key except the gaudy stuff my exes bought me.
?! I do not see the hype about either (Coach nor Mikey B). You can’t create sexy. Either you’re BORN with it or it GROWS on you. I ? neither.
??? that was the plan. “I love it when a good plan comes together”.
Don’t sleep on MK. They have some well made work attire.
every Macy’s in the DC area is SATURATED w/MK. it’s just too much for me. (and i used to love his clothing collection. but when the bags took off, it just got to be tew murch, Lol)
People still checking for coach? Wakanda forever though. I’ll support.
Yep, my momma loves Coach
I recently got a real nice purse non logo-ed. They stepped their game up but it put me back to broke biatch status.
Wakanda !!!! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1379e738fc4f107dca1c7bffb17e140f7be55646d476974180cf875a2b99385c.gif
AUNTIE GOTTA GET PAID!
I want the bag that’s in the ad, not the one posted on the site…
yeah, i like his clothing and shoes (sans labels). and i actually like the styling of his bags, but they are EVERYWHERE… i’m just more low key by nature, so i don’t like anything that ‘screams’ “trend” or “hot right now” …i’m too old for the constant ‘keeping up’ life, LOL!
indeed they do.
The only person I’m ok with carrying a backpack is @SandraRose
????? Atleast you know it’ll last you awhile
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e86501847072dcba783eea0bbb2c002d3ed3d888581b08556155899f7897582f.gif
chile, no shame!
yeah, their classic leather pieces are the truth. i adore a good leather bag.
I second that emotion…
My boyfriend bought me a coach purse for Xmas. I cringed inside but he really tried. He told me yesterday that I should take it out the box and wear it. I removed things from my favorite purse and put my items in there but when I go out in public I get my wallet and keep the purse in the trunk…is that bad?!?!? Lol
I’m not a coach girl. My mom has Fendi and Chanel bags and my dad always spoiled us with those types of designer bags. My bf is like a coach Michael kors guy and I’m like let’s step up your designer game love. He still won’t do it tho smh.
did you just… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/615d380290005c75f2b73b61063d678adb00cb683258e4273a2f5c12b8d5723d.gif
I really would have dumped your money grubbing ungrateful ass. I warn my son about girls like you, and I do mean girls, not women, GIRLS.
you better ‘free’ that bag… you say “old school” (others say “classic”) Lol
??????
Sure did.
THIS!
Well damn ????
Im gonna post a pic. I really like it. It cost me a day of work!
Exactly! It’s Vintage. Fawk what folks have to say.
Exactly..people need to look for quality not name recognition all the time.
That purse is nice but I don’t need naan nudder coach purse ?
Now some bags you KNOW are old and can’t be “pulled off”, for the most part.
Still get at least one Coach item every year and put it under my tree. To me from me.
Backpacks are handy as diaper bags too though. Just bought one for someone who looked so burdened trying to carry the car seat and a tote bag type diaper bag.
But…that’s all the love I can give a backback. It disturbs me on some level to see people my age (almost 50) with backpacks on. Not only is it NOT good for your back, but it also makes them look like they are trying to hold on to their youth…Put your laptop in a shoulder bag please!
Rock it, he thought you may have enjoyed it; as you should!
Umm yes Blue I do ?. They make good leather. Not the trendy stuff but the classic with no name insight will last years. Plus let me stunt because I’m a shareholder. Get into it ?

I used to be into Coach big time…until a couple of years ago actually. Still have so many from ALL they years past. Now I prefer to carry a wallet and nothing else.
Right! Folks. Better check the label to see what material it is made of instead of the name.
Happy new year l see u securing that bag for 2019.
Pretty ??
Girl! I’m telling you, those shoes are the only things that I (will) have of his. I get the “Those are nice, what are they?” vs. the “Those MK’s. They cute.” It does not have to scream it’s name to say who it is.
Lmaooo
As well. That is what it was this year lol. A wristlet. And actually it wasnt from me to me. My guy got it when we were out for Black Friday. Still put my name on it tho lmaooo
I like
Cute. Simple.
?
?
Tell him to buy you a share. Not much more than that wristlet. We elevating this year.
I’m sorry it’s just a lack of home training to not be able to accept a gift graciously and with appreciation. I’ve gotten gifts from boyfriends I don’t really care for, but still wore it because I cared for THEM. I can’t stand golddigging ungrateful sh*t.
Mine too!
Shoes, boots, wristlets, scarves, etc etc
I’ve gotten gifts from boyfriends I don’t really care for, but still wore it…
_____________________
THIS!!! But now that we’re almost 2-years post breakup, those $hits are getting replaced. LOL Right color. Wrong shoe. LMAOOOO
If we break up it’s getting put away, some sh*t has even been thrown away.
Quality leather and low key classic syles..minus the items with c’s all over them. The leather jackets and shoes real nice as well esp at the Tangier outlet, price is right and that store stay packed with Asian folk. Selling an MCM today myself.
They’ve been put away. I’ve changed whole outfits because I needed THAT boot but didn’t want to wear THAT boot. LOL #petty LOL
Noted. Hit me with that stockholder discount too (black people!)
Well damn!!!
Who pissed in your cornflakes.
I don’t know if I’d say that because I spent 1600.00 on a LV few years ago, 420.00 on a Coach around the same time and guess which bag is showing wear and tear first even though I do not use it nearly as much. The LV. Taught me a valuable lesson about wasting stupid amounts of money on overrated BS. Never again…and I hope somebody else reads this and changes their mind about wasting good money on some of these luxury brands, the sh*t is overrated as hell.
I wont be upset with seeing this phyne sexy man on any ad but it wont make me buy any of there products …
Yeah……this rubbed me the wrong way. I’ll chill.
Can he afford to step it up? Don’t have that man out here drowning in debt. Appreciate the gift. Be the woman that can rock a Target purse and still own the room. Just my opinion.
??????
Thank you
Ya heard.. lol https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e7e5d56c7bea87b60f84ffecaa46577f62e1838a13430bf201eccbd61e172aca.gif
SMH ?
Hello somebody
i wasn’t ready….. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/615d380290005c75f2b73b61063d678adb00cb683258e4273a2f5c12b8d5723d.gif
Never be sorry for your perspective. I get it and was with your stance.
but your screen name is ‘gracious’ tho… LOL!
I loved it ?
You’re damn right…walking around the grocery store, who doesn’t have a monogram LV bag. It’s lost all its luster.
you said something right here, Sis!
of course you did… LOL!
Teach her!
That’s for sure
?????
Lately I been looking at Dooney and Bourke and wondered why I stopped carrying them. The line looks to be revamped and very nice. I’m over spending a entirely too much money on bags, I’m looking for quality and style now not something flashy and recognizable.
It’s the thought that counts most men would buy you a vacuum or blender throw that bag on your shoulders and strutt around town with it thankfully
Are you doing ok?
Yesterday you called those McDonald’s workers c*cksuckers.
Your posts aren’t usually that animated. LOL
Omg, I’m sorry! That pissed me off big time too! I just didn’t like that none of those coworkers showed a sense of urgency when that girl was being assaulted, they were just in the background going about their day!
i used to like D&B. then, of course, there was some scuttlebutt about a blatantly racist ad campaign (something to do with a lawn jockey (yikes!), and i just couldn’t ‘deal’ and i pretty much never looked back. of course if you search long enough, you’ll find something racist or offensive in the history of these fashion/goods producers, so i’m not campaigning against them, just not supporting them with My $$$. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9c5524b933f3a29872256af8b9d30b4c9ec5914b980fdc0a0817cbbe688aa153.gif
I am laughing loud. I feel you though. I had a lady step me up from coach to like getting her Dooney & Bourke. In our defense, us guys aren’t up on all the top of the line purses. You’re sweet for being patient with him though .. but that coach in the trunk though … LMAO ..
exactly hahaha
I haven’t rocked a coach bag since I was 12 y/o ?… but I’m glad to see a black face reppin an affordable designer brand

He is really handsome to me.
Louis Vuitton, especially the canvas pieces are overrated. I own bags from both brands.
That’s a cute bag
and that store stay packed with Asian folk.
________________
SHOLE DAMN DO! They be buying UP the whole store. I done seen it with my own two (carry the 1), fo’ eyes. LOL
no ma’am
My favorite brand since teen years. Classic like Judy Blume.
Ok we all have our days.
BTW Happy New Year!!!
I don’t understand the hype about this dude, he’s just average looking.?????
Good shoes too! I bought a pill case to carry my vitamins.
I want a red MCM tote. The Anya doesn’t come in red anymore and the other tote doesn’t zip
You can upgrade his style over time
I sport the Dooney NFL and MLB during their season. Waiting on an HBCU collection since they have NCAA.

I got bags I may carry once a year now. At the time they were gifted, I was appreciative since it was less money out of my pocket.

Ross carries MK bags and shoes. People hide the shoes when they come in and they have to be marked down by the time an employee finds them. Thanks!

From what I see
He’s sexy… Bow legged with a nice build (not too much or too little muscle). He has pretty teeth, skin and eyes, a beautiful dimpled smile. And his swag gives off positive energy… Like he’s a respectful man. I bet he’s hung nice too ?
Maybe you need a wealthier man… I hope he doesn’t see how his gift was unappreciated.
Exactly
Or a better paying gig to buy her own sh*t
Me too… I tell my son all tge time don’t be no sucker… Buying these little girls gifts and they got whole boyfriends and my son is the friend.
He’s not too shabby.. but nothing extravagant either. Them sneakers are ?
Nice pic…
Love the bag!
Good Choice!
All I see is the little boy from The Wire. lol
You have class. I can tell.
Some folks don’t know how good that got it. Michelle Obama would always look together even in non designer brands. It’s about the energy you exude not trying to impress people with name brands . I wish had someone to buy me gifts but gay men can be so annoying am doomed to be alone ? ?.
That’s what all black woman saying since they found out he dates Latinas only
Please! He can date a purple person he’s not attractive to me.
Is anyone still checking for Coach? In the 80s, it was a big deal if you had a Coach purse, wallet or belt. I guess I’m going to have to reintroduce myself to that brand.
Happy new year to you too babe!
Some of these girls need to be glad anybody is even thinking enough of them to want to put a smile on their face, by buying a gift. That’s sweet of your son but yeah, he needs to watch out.
I’m sorry I offended you. I really didn’t mean to upset anyone. It’s a powder blue purse I don’t rock blur purses. I’ve been scolded by him for buying him express ties instead of ties from other stores. This is like my 3rd time commenting on this site but I’ll just stay out of here from now on. And again I didn’t mean to offend anyone and i appreciate my boyfriend for th3 gift I truly do but I’m allowed to say I don’t like the gift. I never said it to hos face or tried to hurt his feelings. I haven’t been able to express how i felt about it and thought this would be a cool platform since im anonymous and this is a group of women. I always saw this site as a little girl chat site but maybe this isn’t for me. I hope you have a great new year!
I talked about him sooo bad that he knows better now. I’m the only female he spends him money on now ?
I first saw him on Fruitville station… Idris and Jaime were my crushes from The Wire… Ion even remember Michael ?
For the record I have a son as well. I wouldn’t want that for him and I’m definitely not a little girl hence why I don’t like my powder blue coach purse. i honestly wish that I posted a pic of the handbag before everyone came for my neck. I’m sure most of you LADIES would probably agree with me. Have a great new year!
I’m only one person on here, don’t worry about me for real. My single opinion shouldn’t matter much. There’s some pretty intelligent folks on here, stick around.
Please continue to check in the garden. Sometimes it rocky but most days are fun. Shake it off and come back, okay?
Handsome man. Not a fan tho.
Macy’s Backstage sells MCM, at least the one at St.Charles towne center in Md for like $300 less than a Nordstrom etc.
Liked Coach back then, still do.
He is such a handsome young man! I wish he nothing but the best in his career and future
YES I DO!!!!!
Thanks fir the tip!
Lol, boughettto.
Hahaha
you really think he’s handsome O_o Nice body tho
Not a fan, not attractive, but that body is the truth…when is he going to come out the closet tho
same here, but his body is nice
I always thought Michael B. was cute and sexy but am starting to wonder what his sexual preference is!… But congrats to him!… I think he’s a great talent regardless…
I have always like Coach. From the late 80’s until now
I like Coach. i don’t go broke trying to buy a bag. That goddam LV and Gucci will break your pockets. I stay in my lane
Yes he has a nice smile and features
yeah but it all doesn’t go together…looks good individually
