About Hobo the Original

Established in Annapolis, Maryland, in 1991, the brand Hobo’s origins lie within the craft of leather. When Toni Ray, creative force behind the legendary ’70’s D.C. leather shop, Georgetown Leather, founded the brand with her daughter, Koren Ray, they wanted to keep the company firmly grounded in the belief that our possessions should reflect our journey. Raised on the road in a VW bus, and spending time under the craft bench as her mother worked in her iconic shop, Koren learned first-hand to create with beauty, soul, and purpose. As Hobo thrives as a second generation, privately-owned and family-operated brand, Koren and her husband, David Brewer, focus on creating beautiful, authentic leather goods that are made to last. They stay true to their passion and enduring design philosophy with hand-picked leathers, timeless designs, flawless functionality, and a nostalgic tribute to the methods and soul of the 70’s, creating bags that only get better with age.

Best Leather Work Tote EVER Just bought my 4th Kingston Tote and love it so much I sought out this review platform to share my love! My favorite thing about this bag is that no matter how much I have to carry the bag always seems to accommodate. It's large enough to carry my laptop and files to work, or I've used it on multiple occasions as an overnight bag. BUT when I only have the essentials with me the soft leather drapes perfectly creating a smaller silhouette. Can't say enough good things - hope everyone checks out this style. Game changer

I purchased a bag I purchased a bag. The next day it went on sale. They refused to honor the sale price. I had to reorder the bag. I received the first bag and it was complete junk to say it nicely. I returned it. The second one I returned as well. They refused to refund me shipping charges. The quality of the bags would be equivalent to something a teenager would purchase at Walmart. These bags probably cost them pennies to make and they're selling them for hundreds of dollars.

Poor customer service. Bought a Sheila bag. Had it for three months and the zipper broke and the stitching coming out. Had to pay to ship it back and they decided to credit my account instead of sending a new one. They didn't have the same color but also didn't offer to send a different color. If I buy a new one, they will no longer honor the 30% off that I had originally received. So now they want me to pay over $100 more. Sorry, to me that is not taking care of your customers.

Check the shipping I have bought several bags from Hobo ad have always been very satisfied with all my orders. The quality is great and they are lovely. But I just bought a little add on in one of the zodiac signs for a gift and almost canceled the ordered because of the shipping price. The item was only $30.00, it was on sale, but the shipping was over $16.00 and it is a very small item. I thought this was ridiculous, I was considering ordering another one but not after I seen what the shipping was, no way. I have never had to pay such a ridiculous shipping price at HOBO for such a very small item or even a large one.

Customer service never returns phone… Customer service never returns phone calls and emails are not promptly responded to either. Ordered 4/27 and very late evening of 4/30 received email that order would be delayed. Called in morning of 5/1 and emailed. Email response was shipping that day or next with tracking info. Never received anything so emailed 5/7 and called & emailed 5/8 to cancel. Disputed charge and at end of business day, HOBO sent email that cannot cancel & shipped order for supposed delivery on 5/12. Now I am supposed to return when received to get refund even though already disputed. Have zero clue if will actually be delivered by 5/12 as I have plans due to holiday. Customer Service is abysmal as phone sends to voice mail automatically with no return calls. Only response is email when they get around to it.
