Jalda reminds us that fabric can be every bit as beautiful as its favorite leathers with the Masha.
Honestly I thought this hobo was made entirely from leather at first. However it’s actually crafted from superior Italian fabric. The softer material creates a more natural hobo slouch, while its subtle metallic sheen helps it turn heads without overwhelming an outfit. It wouldn’t be a Jalda bag with a bit of leather, and we get this in the handle and trim. It’s just enough to take the Masha from casual accessory to everyday classic.
Jalda has added brushed antique rings to the handle and a smattering of studs, but in my opinion it’s not enough to make the Masha really interesting. A few more color options might have piqued my interest, but this basic black hobo feels very ho-hum.
The Masha is enormous, and I’m not sure Jalda does quite enough to make all that space feel manageable. The trio of pockets is what we’d expect to see in so many other hobos. It works for most bags, but for one this big we really need something more.
At $498 the Masha isn’t as expensive as many designer bags, but it also lacks the wow factor I need to spend that sort of money. Has Jalda impressed you?
