HOBO Kori Hobo review

HOBO is a leather brand built around the slouchy shoulder bag, and the Kori Hobo shows why it leads this list. The pebbled leather body measures 17.5 by 12.5 by 5.5 inches, the largest bag we compared, and hangs from a solid leather single strap with an 11 inch drop. A top zip closes it, and the product page lists six places to sort small items: two slip pockets and a pen pocket on the interior front, a zip pocket and a slip pocket on the interior back, and an exterior zip pocket. The lining is a Sandlewood fabric and the hardware is Old English Brass. On November 13, 2026 the Black colorway sold for $169, down from a regular price of $338, and HOBO ships free on orders over $175. The trade-offs are a single strap with no crossbody option and a price that depends on the sale holding. We compared documented materials, sizes and published US prices; we did not handle the bag.
