Kenneth Cole gives the hobo a little rock and roll flair with this Wash N Fold bag.
Rather than covering the hobo in studs or spikes, Kenneth Cole’s rock and roll vibe is much more subtle. It comes from the casual crinkled leatherette (in black, naturally), which slouches with a devil-may-care attitude. That relaxed crinkled fabric is what gives the Wash N Fold its name; this worn-in fabric seems as if it really has gone a few rounds with a washing machine!
Bag snobs may turn their nose up at the synthetic, but its treatment is really appealing. I don’t miss leather here, especially considering we pay just $79 for this cheaper alternative. The skin is given a little extra edge with white contrast stitching and long zipper pulls.
The bucket shape is a little atypical of a hobo, but the choice works in our favor. It helps the Wash N Fold sit up nicely, which makes for easy packing and daytime use. The dimensions are generous too, although with plenty of pockets inside and out it doesn’t seem too overwhelming.
This Wash N Fold hobo bag is a great option for girls who want an everyday handbag that doesn’t cost the earth.
