Studs have never been more sophisticated than the delicate ones covering the Parquet Stud Hobo from Dan W.
Ordinarily metal brings a healthy dose of attitude to the design, but here the accents are much more reserved. The tiny pinheads dot the criss-cross embossed leather, creating a unique kind of plaid. I’ve never seen anything like it; it’s got the sort of sophistication I’d expect to see from Burberry, rather than an affordable fashion house like Dan W. I’m certainly not complaining though!
The zippered pocket running across the front suggests that the Parquet Stud isn’t all about keeping up appearances. It’s a really functional accessory, with an array of zip and patch pockets hidden inside. The zippered one will likely get the biggest workout, so I’m glad it’s trimmed with protective leather. The dimensions are sizable but slender, so you’ll need to pack carefully if you want to carry bulky items. I like the dimensions though, as they make this hobo look more stylish than the average.
Not all Parquet Stud bags are created equally though. The black one has a timeless sophistication which the taupe one doesn’t quite pull off. You’ll pay an affordable $184 for both color options.
