A style for everyone
SUMMER 2022 COLLECTION

hobo's summer collection launches on Saturday, June 25th
Introducing the broad range of bags from this lineup

Tokyo-based brand hobo prides itself on using highly-skilled Japanese craftsmen to produce all their bags and accessories.
All materials and processes are thoughtfully considered, using Japanese fabrics and techniques where possible.

This summer, hobo’s bag lineup has something for everyone, from classic rucksack styles and spacious carry-all totes, to elegant cowhide shoulder bags.
Extremely versatile to complement almost any situation and wardrobe, the simplicity and quality of each item ensure continued use through many seasons to come.

We share the hobo collection below.

Artisan shoulder bag with unique handle
 

Large shoulder bag made from a linen and cotton blended fabric produced in small quantities from start to finish by craftsmen in Japan's Enshu region. The fabric's refining, bleaching, and dyeing processes are all carried out by hand and dried naturally in the sun to preserve its texture. The quality and natural appearance are accentuated by its unusual shape and distinctive handle and button and loop closure.

A two-part set to keep your essentials organized
 

Two small pouches crafted from premium leather, which develop a unique patina over time. Ideal for when you need just your essentials, the smaller case can fit your cards and bills, while the bigger of the two has enough space for your cellphone, keys, and a few cosmetics. The leather shoulder strap keeps the two pouches attached, which is also handy when used in conjunction with a bigger bag, to keep your valuables organized.
