Customer Reviews HOBO Lauren

This wallet is gorgeous in patent leather with red lining, but I find it impractical. It won't stay closed when I load it just with normal wallet items. It won't hold my iPhone. It needs a wrist strap that can be retracted when not needed. A wallet this size needs to double as a clutch and be able to hold bare essentials. I have a Hobo wallet that is smaller and can do all of these things, but this one is so much prettier, so I was hoping it would be as nice. I have a friend who loves this wallet and won't try anything else, but she also has a gigantic purse, which is needed to haul this wallet.

I have had a Hobo purse, this Hobo purse, for over 10 years. It was beginning to look a bit worn, so I ordered that same item, I thought. But the new one is much cheaper made, not the brick color as it was, much too narrow for the exact same items I carry in the original Hobo. Just doesn't make it. Not as soft leather, rather ugly lining, clasps are clumsy, not as useful by half. So sorry. I really wanted this to work for me. But it does not.

I loved my old HOBO clutch. Had it for more than 15 years! Was loathe to buy another but this one filled the bill. Unfortunately it is already falling apart. Where the leather meets up with the hardware is separating. Very disappointed

Everything fell out of it constantly. No matter how empty I kept it it always popped back open and the credit cards were always falling out and were loose in the bottle of my purse. I used it for less than a week and every single day I lost everything inside of it.
