Customer Reviews HOBO Lauren

Nice looking, roomy wallet - I ordered this hoping I could use it as a wallet when I was also using a handbag or diaper bag and as a clutch when I wanted to travel light. It is a great wallet - plenty of room for lots of cards, bills, coins, receipts, coupons, etc. Love the driver's license window and the inside pocket. Also fits a chapstick, but my phone and keys don't fit. Maybe it would if the leather stretched, but I don't want to stretch it. Nonetheless I love it because it holds all of my other stuff and looks great. I would have given it 5 stars if it had a wrist strap.

This was an adorable purse. However, it was way too small to fit anything! More of an oversized wallet. I wanted to carry t for an event, the color was perfect (lilac) but I couldn't even put my keyes/glasses in it. Sadly, sending back.

Retro chic! It's easy to see why there's a lot of buzz about this bag. It's unique. You won't find anything else quite like this hybrid purse-wallet. But in trying to be both, it has made a couple of compromises. It's rather flat and sleek. As a purse, it's hard to fit even your most basic stuff inside without spoiling the look. A cell phone and/or keys, for instance, will cause visible bulges, though after the bag stretches out, they become less obvious. As a wallet, it's very large and heavy to carry around inside another purse, though the organizational components are well thought-out. The bag feels very comfortable in the hand and the look is just gorgeous. I have it in Pearl, a color that's now unfortunately hard to find. Pictures never do this stunning color justice. It's not white, but a warm, creamy ivory with a subtle iridescence. I love it with jeans, with black, you name it. I recommend the Lauren as a purse or an evening clutch only if you can pare your junk down to the barest essentials -- or just get some really flat stuff! As a wallet, I prefer the Diane. It has a similar look but won't take up as much space inside another bag. Hobo quality is excellent. I have been buying their bags since they have been making them, and I still own a Hobo double-zip wallet that I got as a gift in 1994. Though the Vintage Collection bags (like this one) don't hold up as nicely as the Milanos, any leather wear adds to the character.

This has been the perfect wallet. I like how stylish the patterns and fabric are and I can easily access my ID and credit cards. I have a side for cash and cards, and a side for a few checks and receipts. I like this wallet much better for functionality than a zip around wallet. Nothing gets caught in a zipper.

I’ve wanted this wallet for a long time finally found it at an affordable price on Zappos. Thank you I love it!

I love the material my wallet clutch is made from! It’s so stylish!!!

Gorgeous wallet. Even prettier in person. The scales glisten in light making it very eye catching. I love it.

Love this wallet/clutch. Lava is a fun combination of red and orange. I have several Lauren’s. Love them all

This wallet/clutch is beautiful. been using it for a while now. I love that it’s different than everything else out there. It holds cards, cash, lip gloss, papers, cell phone and anything else you feel like throwing in it. I can throw it in my handbag or just use this when I don’t want to carry too much. I love this thing!

The Rio color is more coral than red, but it is very pretty. I purchased it as a gift. Hobo makes very fine leather goods.

Love it! I was apprehensive about spending this much on a wallet/clutch but it's lovely. It can be used as both a clutch or wallet and does have enough room for my goodies. This will be a fav for years to come.

This is one of my most FAVORITE wallets I've ever purchased. Lots of compartments, etc. It is very durable as well. Perfect Hobo "Lauren". Great customer service.

Love this!! Great size. Nice compartments. Lots of space. Cute as a wallet and a clutch, no need to switch back and forth all of the time.

Overall this is a gorgeous and functional wallet. I got the Burnished Rose color and it’s beautiful. That said, I have purchased these wallets over the years and I have noticed a definite decline in quality. The colors fade and crack around the folded edges, and the hardware gets discolored. I still plan to keep mine though because it’s one of the best wallets out there for providing everything you need in one sweet, cute, easy to carry package.

To me, this is the perfect clutch for a night out (or a giant wallet if that's your thing). I'm not of fan of handbags with bling. I love a nice, well-made, simple, supple leather handbag or clutch. The Hobo Lauren is my favorite clutch. I have the Bayou which is a beautiful blue with silver hardware, and the Mink (with the tattoo feather) with brass colored hardware which goes with everything. Plenty of room for cards/cash and a few essentials. If you have a giant phone, bulky keys, etc this might be too thin for you, but it fits my phone, cards, money, a few lipsticks etc. Highly recommend. I wish I had more of them, but I will have to save up! I have had no trouble with the clasps. Very nicely made clutch.

Third Hobo wallet and this one is my favorite! Love the patching. Wish they would make more like this in addition to the solid colors available.

Adorable! These clutches also work as wallets. Totally chic. Wallet by day; toss in the phone and clutch by night!

Hobo Lauren wallets are hands down my absolute favorite wallets ever! I have been using them for years & can't get enough!!! You will not regret ever purchasing one ....I can promise you will keep buying. The Lemongrass is the most gorgeous summer/fall yellow I have ever seen. I love it! I just got the Cameo...and it is beyond beautiful, a gold irridesent color. I am a Mom-on-the-Go & I can't imagine my life without the Hobo Lauren. I usually have my Kavu or Fjällräven back pack with the kids most days & hobo lauren wallet inside ready to pop out and use even as a clutch. So get one...don't second guess it...Do it....you can thank me later!! :)

Received this last week and already love it. My iPhone X max fits inside as well as credit cards and cash. The leather is soft and beautiful . So far it is worth every penny.

I love this new Rachel wallet! The leather is gorgeous and feels amazing and the color is beautiful. I’m on the fence a little on the new coin clasp. I liked the old closure much better. But I will adjust! Love love love the Hobo Rachel!!!

I bought this for my wife to replace a Hobo Lauren wallet that was damaged several years ago. Although I could not find an exact replacement, the color was not available, she really loves these wallets. They are a great size, the feel and look is rich, and it is very functional.

I love the Lauren Hobo wallet! They have tons of space and help keep things organized. Previously I've had a turquoise leather and then a nude patent. They both were great. The leather ones wear very well but if you are like me and always have tons of junk in your purse, I'd go with a darker color to avoid discoloration. I went with the black leather one this time and know it will be a staple for many years!

LOVE this wallet. I waited a long time to order because I had a hard time justifying the cost but it's well worth it. This wallet is going to last forever and holds everything. Great purchase! I bought the black but it would also be great in any color I think.

BEST large wallett ever. I now own this wallet in 6 different colors. Great soft leather. Plenty if roon for cfredit cards. Compatmentscare great with a karge zippered pocket, so nothing is ever falling out. It can hold alot, I fiten just carry it as my purse. It can even hold your phone and lipstick!

Best wallett made. Soft Leather, tons of large compartments, plenty of credit c slots. Cant say enough I have it in blue,red,green and multi. I love wallets and this is by far the best of years of research. They wear great. Quality.
