It will try to make up for that with better spots in department stores and high-touch flagship stores in the 12 major North American markets where it gets half of its sales.

How does the focus on Coach's history help you?

专注于蔻驰的历史能发挥什么作用？

Coach, under pressure from investors to boost revenue, added line after line of merchandise and dozens of factory outlet stores over the past few years, fueling a dramatic run-up in earnings--to the point where Coach isn't really Coach anymore.

投资者急于追求利润的增长，蔻驰因此不得不在过去的几年间不断扩大生产规模并增开几十家工厂直销店，这样做的确使其利润有了飞跃，但这时蔻驰已不再是原来的蔻驰。

Investors proved nervous and sent shares down 9% after the company said returning to growth could take a while.

Even in China, the motor of its sales growth of late, Coach is tweaking its approach, closing stores in locations that have become less attractive and opening new stores in better spots.

即使在中国市场（也是它近期的销售增长引擎），蔻驰也在调整经营策略：关闭客流不理想的门店，另择新址开设新店。

Coach is also at a disadvantage because it's not part of a large umbrella corporation that can compensate for slow growth in one of its portfolio companies with fast growth in another.

蔻驰的另一个劣势在于它不隶属于任何一个大公司，因此也不存在销售业绩较好与较差的投资组合公司之间的互补。

Poor sales prompted a leadership shuffle in July, and after a particularly bad earnings report Tuesday, the stock took its biggest dive in years.

Gucci, Burberry and Louis Vuitton all fit the bill, with slightly less kudos for mid-range names like Coach.

古琦、博柏利和路易威登受到青睐，中等品牌的蔻驰稍逊之。

Coach shares fell a third last year. Its market capitalisation, which stood at over$ 22bn in 2012, is now down to$ 10bn.

去年蔻驰的股价下跌了三分之一。2012年超过220亿美元的市值，如今跌至100亿美元。

The new collection is a nod to Coach classics-and an effort to start to win back shoppers who thought the brand had grown too showy in recent years.

这个系列的产品系意味着对蔻驰经典的回归，标志着这家公司在努力重新赢得一些昔日拥趸的青睐。在这些粉丝的印象中，蔻驰品牌近几年变得太花哨了。
