Hobo International Urban Oxide Nolita Carry All Purse Black

 (4 customer reviews)

I bought this bag after admiring an Urban Oxide bag a friend had had for years that still looked great. The pebbled recycled rubber fabric is easy to keep clean and looking fresh. It doesn't smell like rubber, either. The strap can be adjusted to be worn as a shoulder strap or cross-body strap.

Now for a detailed description of how the bag's storage works:

Take a look at the picture. See that pocket on the outside of the bag? The picture is a little deceptive, because the pocket is actually bigger than the picture makes it look. The part of the pocket covered by the flap (which has a velcro closure) is 11 inches wide.

I wanted a non-leather, durable bag for me to put all my stuff in but wasn't too large.

I like the plasic material and the bubble effect. It feels modern. I can just clean it with a wet cloth. It's a good size and the front pouch is helpful.

I wish that the velcro that holds the front pouch in place were magnets or a latch. Often I end up with the front not being closed.

I was sure from the picture that there were additional side sections for glasses or cell phone. But when I got the bag I saw that it was all part of the one big front section and not 3 -- one front and 2 side -- and that what I thought was a separate side section was just a seam. I was looking forward to having separate side pockets.

It's the right size, right material, looks great but could be designed better.

Love this bag! I will be looking for a smaller version as well. Very durable. My only problem is the bag itself is a little heavy.
