Reviews

I miss the cute interior fabrics

"I have owned Hobo products for 15 years. I have many items. I love this sling. It’s perfect for this phase of my life, but I really, really miss the cute interior fabrics. At this price point, we shouldn’t be skimping on this!"

— Andrea (4/5)

"This is a well crafted sling purse in beautiful soft leather. The surface of the leather has a slight shine and the color is a nice neutral for summer and could be seasonless depending on your preferences. I chose the whiskey color."

— Kathleen (5/5)

Great bag for travel, but small

"Bought this for a descent trip. Always quality leather, durable zippers and finish (has a bit of a sheen to it), withstood wet weather (I did waterproof it), but just a tad too thin. I wish it was an inch thicker or wider to accommodate more. Could fit my small wallet, phone, lipstick, hand sanitizer, but not my sunglasses or keys."

— Angela F. (4/5)

Perfect for hands free errands

"Love the color size and feel of this bag."

— Carrie (5/5)

"I love Hobo , but this bag came shiny and not buff! Really disappointed."

— Leanne (1/5)

"My favorite backpack EVER!!! So easy to use, and with a mini robin wallet, it still has plenty of room for a few on the go essentials. I got the black last year as a gift for my bday, and this one was for myself for the national handbag day sale and it was a STEAL! I hope they keep this backpack forever cuz it is awesome!"

How do I make the strap longer: Hi Aileen, You would pull the strap on the gold buckle!
For the whiskey colored fern sling, it’s a preorder and says it will ship on 8/15, does that mean it will ship out to me on the 15th or it’s shipped to you on the 15th? I’m trying to figure out if I would receive it in time for a trip I’m leaving for on the 24th.: Hi Laura! We would ship the item out on the 8/15 to you! That is the estimated ship out date from our warehouse to you!
Does it work for a lefty.: Hi Michele! Yes, it does!
