Is the Rayna big enough for everyday essentials?

Yes. It holds a phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses and a small pouch. It is not sized for a laptop or a large water bottle.

Does it close securely?

It uses a concealed magnetic closure, so the top stays open. There is no zip, which matters in crowds or rain.

Can it be worn crossbody?

No. It comes with a fixed shoulder strap with a 10-inch drop and no crossbody strap.

How does it compare with other Hobo shoulder bags?

The Rayna is lighter and less structured than Hobo's lined, multi-pocket styles. You trade organization for a softer, simpler bag.

What is the leather like?

It is double-faced leather, pebbled on the outside and smooth on the inside, so the interior is leather rather than fabric.

How should I care for it?

Wipe with a soft dry cloth and keep it stuffed when stored. Condition smooth leather sparingly and avoid soaking the pebbled side.

Owners rate it highly and describe it as soft, light and easy to carry, with leather that looks better than its simple construction suggests. Complaints center on the open top and the small amount of interior organization.

About the Hobo Rayna Shoulder Bag

The Hobo Rayna Shoulder Bag has an asymmetric silhouette that drapes softly. It has enough structure to stand upright, yet it stays soft enough to move with the wearer.

It is made from double-faced leather that is pebbled on the outside and smooth on the inside. The interior is leather as well, with one slip pocket. The bag is lightweight.

A concealed magnetic closure secures the bag, and the hardware is Old English brass. The shoulder strap has a 10 in drop.
