HAND-PICKED LEATHERS | TIMELESS DESIGNS | FLAWLESS FUNCTIONALITY
At HOBO, our unwavering commitment is to create bags that only get better with use & wear...
It all begins at the craft bench with our nostalgic tribute to the methods and soul of the 70’s and our enduring design philosophy that balances beauty & utility - the result, eminently wearable pieces that only get better with age.
Koren’s relationship with leather craft started as a child growing up in her mother’s store watching artisans hand-make leather goods. Truly a child of the 70’s, these influences remain the lens that defines Hobo’s aesthetic...
Handcrafted nuances, respect for the details, vintage touches, celebrating the imperfections of leather and an admiration for timelessly cool shapes to love forever.
Our Design Philosophy
AT HOBO WE BELIEVE IN:
- 1/ Quality over quantity - We only manufacture as many bags as we can do perfectly
- 2/ Handselecting the leathers we use for every bag to achieve the perfect hand & drape
- 3/ How a bag functions is as important as how it looks
- 4/ Having a long-term relationship with your bag expressed through craftmanship & quality
- 5/ Creating beautiful authentic things that are made to last
