Reviews
Just Beautiful!!!
"Love my new Alba HOBO bag. The black leather is soft to touch with a rich and elegant look. I love a vintage look and this bag is perfect lots of room inside with a tight clasp which stays shut even when full. Love the side zip pocket for my phone. My new favorite HoBO bag🩷"

Smaller than listed dimensions
"Bag measurements are incorrect. The bottom length is actually only 12”, tapering to a little less than 11” at the top interior space, rendering it too small for most laptops. The models in the listing must be tiny, as the bag looks huge on them. The ink color is so dark it’s actually a blue-black. Returning due to the size being too small."

Great name
"Purse is large —- I probably could have gone with smaller one but reviews said the small is way too small. Great material - feel will last forever."

Beautiful and soft navy blue.
"Beautiful and soft navy blue. I love kiss lock handbags and this one is top notch. Has room for all of your essentials and the outside pocket keeps my cell phone handy."

"Would have been a 5 however I don’t like the connection of the handle to the bag. Makes it difficult to close easily"

Beautiful purse!
"Absolutely love this purse. I love everything about it! My first Hobo bag I purchased was in Des Moines at a Yonkers and have had that bag at least 15 years! Purse is beautifully made and the leather is so soft and I love the color I chose, Whisky. For me, I can’t say enough about it!"

Gorgeous design but …
"Sad to have to return this bag. It pops open every time I sling it over my shoulder. I just can’t have that. Looks aren’t everything. It had a job to do and could not."

Perfection
"I purchased the whiskey leather Alba when it was on back order and was told before it arrived I would be receiving the new, updated version of the bag which featured a printed lining and strap clasps that tucked in when using the bag as a clutch. So I was a bit disappointed when I received my bag and it was the old version. There was nothing really wrong with the bag per se but I was looking forward to the upgrades so I decided to be patient and exchange the bag for the one I was supposed to get and I’m very glad I did! I absolutely adore this bag. It is the perfect size. Compared to my other large purses this bag feels smaller in comparison (in a good way!) but still holds a lot. I love it with the shoulder strap for day to day errands and then being able to remove it and turn it into a clutch for the evening. It looks great with everything and I’ve been carrying it since I got it."

Beautiful bag!
"I loved this bag! Unfortunately, the strap will detatch. I had to return it because of that! I wish Hobo would come up with a strap that stays attached!"
