Kooba Rae Hobo

Kooba Rae HoboWith studs on the way out, fashion designers need to be careful when using these metal accents. Too much and the bag can easily appear tired and destined to date. Kooba gets things right though with the Rae hobo.

Kooba hasn’t been too heavy handed here, which is the real key to the bag’s success. The pin-head studs are dainty, and they’re only used to accent the pleats, the top of the bag, and its straps. The sprinkling of metal helps to define the Rae’s unexpectedly structured shape; we see just enough to add interest without overwhelming the design. We’re just as likely to admire those neatly tucked pleats or the cranberry red leather.

The Rae’s smart design ensures this bag is as pleasurable to use as it is to look at. It’s a good size for everyday use; not too big or too small. We still see plenty of features though, including a pair of open pockets, a large zippered pouch, and a convenient key clip. The leather strap is also very user-friendly. It’s flat so it won’t slip from your shoulder, and it’s also long enough for us to simply grab it and go.

I wouldn’t call the Rae a bargain, but at $485 this Kooba hobo is well priced for a bag with such substance and style.
