Ralph Lauren Houndstooth Hobo Bag | Camel Colored Fabric Everyday Handbag

54 sec read

Ralph Lauren combines casual cool and British charm to create this chic Houndstooth Hobo.

The fabric finish gives this bag a relaxed style, but it’s a little different to the boho vibe we associate with hobos. The shape’s a lot more structured, and that houndstooth print creates a preppy private school feel. The brown checks are complemented by thin strips of black leather trim.

By keeping the leather to a minimum, Ralph Lauren keeps the price down to an affordable $70. That’s a bargain for the brand’s fans, who will love the embroidered signature which sits near the base. Thankfully for the rest of us, it’s subtle enough not to upset the design.

Of course, to cut costs Ralph Lauren has cut a few corners. If you’re looking for a handbag that will organize itself, this isn’t it. There’s only one zippered pocket inside, which isn’t enough for a space of this size. While it isn’t the largest hobo I’ve seen, those fabric walls do encourage us to overstuff. Be careful though; without slip pockets you may struggle to find your cell phone if you cram too much in.

But all in all, this hobo is very understated, and very Ralph Lauren.
