Hobo Handbag

Love the design and material. Perfect for traveling, as a diaper bag, going to the gym, etc. Also is spacious. My 13 inch laptop fits perfectly.

Sleeper Favorite!

It was love at first sight...

...until I tried to pack the bag. I bought the large Hobo Handbag thinking it would be perfect for travel and outings with my five year old. The exterior has a lovely weight and feel, and I appreciate the two strap options. And the size would have been perfect IF the main compartment zipper actually spanned the full length of the opening. I tried to put my kiddo's iPad (in a kid-proof case) in the main compartment, which easily should have fit, and it was nearly impossible to get inside. That's when I realized that the internal pockets were also difficult to access - all on the bottom of the bag, making them hard to access (again, because of the limited opening) and resulting in the top half of the bag being basically useless unless filled with something like a sweater. I've thought about trying the large Crescent Convertible instead, but I can't quite tell if I'd experience the same zipper issue, and I don't care for the crescent shape in such a large bag. If Canvelle redesigned the Hobo zipper to open two inches wider at the top, I'd be the first customer in line to buy it! As it stands, I never used this bag and I'll be returning it.
