In a special collection, Coach collaborates with Disney and the Keith Haring Studio to celebrate the iconic artist's playfully subversive illustrations of the one and only Mickey Mouse. Inspired by a bustling trail on New York City's West Side, this spacious tote is a go-everywhere design with plenty of room for the essentials. Crafted of crossgrain leather, it features the American artist's original artwork.

About the artist: Artist Keith Haring (1958-1990) was inspired by the art of Walt Disney from an early age, learning to draw Disney's Mickey Mouse from a Disney "how-to-draw" book he found at his grandmother's house. Well into his teenage years Haring wanted to be a cartoonist, thinking he could work for Disney, though he ultimately went on to study fine art. Eventually, Haring's passion for both cartooning and the visual arts combined in what became his unique and widely recognized style. Mickey Mouse is a recurring figure in Haring's art, when asked why, he said Mickey is "ultimately a symbol of America more than anything else."
