Uses

Carrying the bag on one shoulder

Wear this scarlet leather hobo bag over one shoulder or carry it by hand, using the single wide strap that flows from the bag's body to form its curved top opening. The strap is made from the same scarlet leather as the body, with visible topstitching along the outer edge.[1,2,3]

Keeping small items separated and secured inside the bag

For shoppers who want everyday items easy to find, the Brooklyn 28 Scarlet Leather Hobo Bag includes an inner pocket with a snap button, so keys, cards or a phone can be kept apart from the main compartment. The interior also features a curved-top slip pocket in the same smooth leather as the exterior, and an interior leather tab with a snap-style closure at the top opening.[1,4]

A scarlet statement hobo for everyday outfits

Style this slouchy scarlet hobo as the finishing piece for everyday looks, from casual to dressed-up. One customer reports reaching for it constantly among a large bag collection, loving the slouch it develops and planning to buy more. Details like pebbled full-grain leather, dark edge trim, gold hardware, and a hanging leather tag give it a polished finish that reads as a fashion accessory in its own right.[1,2,5]

An everyday hobo you can carry for the long haul

Reach for this scarlet leather hobo as a daily bag — one reviewer says it's the one she grabs every time from her collection, and another reports a coworker who has carried hers almost daily for over a year and it still looks gorgeous. The slouch the leather develops over time is part of the appeal, according to a fan of the bag. A signature dust bag is included for storage when you're not carrying it.[1,5,6]

Brooklyn 28 Scarlet Leather Hobo Bag: Choose this if you want a soft, slouchy hobo in scarlet full-grain leather with a single wide shoulder strap, a magnetic snap closure, and an inner snap-pocket — it comes in one size only, measuring about 11 inches wide by 10.25 inches high by 3.5 inches deep, with a signature dust bag included. It suits everyday carry fans: one commenter said they reach for it over other bags and love the slouch it develops, and another reported that a coworker's daily-used bag still looked gorgeous after more than a year.[1,2,3,5,6]Empire Soft Suede Shoulder Bag: Choose this if you want a soft genuine-suede carryall in brown (a warm russet shade) with a slouchy, elongated silhouette that still has a structured flat base, a top zipper, and both rolled grab handles and long suede shoulder straps. It is designed to hold your essentials, with an interior patch pocket, inner key ring clasp, and a signature dust bag included; one fan of the suede version described it as very soft with a notable slouch and amazing-smelling suede, adding it seems softer than the all-leather version. It comes in one size, measuring about 14 inches long, 5.5 inches high, and 4.5 inches wide.[7,8,9,10]Jet Leather Shoulder Bag: Choose this if you want a small, dressy leather bag for going out: it is made of full-grain calf leather in black, measures about 9.75 inches long by 4.5 inches high by 2 inches wide, and has a flap with snap-button pushlock closure, a quick-access back slip pocket, and an interior zip pocket. It suits you if you value flexible carrying, since two detachable straps (an 11-inch drop and a 21.5-inch drop) let you carry it by hand, short on the shoulder, or crossbody, and a signature dust bag is included. One caveat: owners report the shape limits capacity—one fits only a phone, cardholder, keys, and a lipstick, and another struggled with a phone, wallet, and keys—so it is best for essentials only, though one owner found it a nice size for dressier occasions.[11,12,13,14,15,16]
