hobo

hobo was established in 2004 aiming to create a range of robust, functional bags, designed to satisfy a variety of urban lifestyle needs. Balancing practicality with the ornate, a collection of bracelets, rings and other accessories were also introduced. hobo collections now include headwear, footwear, an expanding range of handcrafted leather goods and assorted lifestyle products. hobo takes its name from the travelling workers of late 19th century USA, honoring the independent and free spirit of the journeymen who wandered the American railways in search of jobs, their lives possessions packed into a small bag on their backs. hobo designs focus on utility, texture, form and original detail, produced with the highest quality materials and sturdiest parts. With almost all manufacturing taking place in Japan, each product draws character from the exceptional quality of Japanese craftsmanship and attention to detail.
