For the past handful of months, I’ve been researching hobo bags to add to my closet. Maybe it’s the return of oversized leather totes and slouchy bags. Or the undeniable wave of early aughts fashion trends that seemingly has no end. Regardless, we’ve had more than enough months—nay, years—of the structured, micro bags (well, at least I have). The time has come for the little purse’s complete counterpart to take the spotlight.

Below, you’ll find 15 must-have hobo bags to carry all year long (it is one of the best fall 2023 bag trends, after all). From oversized everyday styles to petite and pretty purses for those nights out—both of which come from affordable brands and luxury designers—these are the ones worth investing in. Scroll on to shop them all.

Willow Shoulder Bag

If you aren’t ready to lose all the structure of your tried-and-true handbags just yet, you’ll love this style from Coach.

Cactus Leather Hobo

Prefer to sport a faux leather option? Enter Everlane’s Cactus Leather Hobo, which is great for running out the door. Not to mention, this green is perfect for summer.

Soft M Leather Hobo Bag

The time has come for your items to be (stylishly) swimming in your bag. Also, this supple hobo is perfect for any trips you might be taking to the farmers market this summer, too.

Aphrodite Medium Shoulder Bag

For those of you who appreciate Gucci’s Jackie bag but want something a little different from the rest, I present to you the Aphrodite.

Paris VII Medium Hobo Bag in Suede

This bag has a flatter design than others on this list, but the adjustable drawstring will give it the shape you want, when you want.

Sydney Hobo Bag

Not all hobo bags need be gigantic. Case in point: Madewell’s sleek shoulder bag.

Crosby Hobo

This bag only weighs 1.5 pounds, which means it won’t feel extra heavy when it’s toting all your things. That’s a win in my book.

Sylvia Hobo

Maybe you want a larger bag to carry things for an overnight or weekend trip. (Or perhaps you, like me, need something to haul everything to and from the office.) I have just the hobo for you.

Lin Leather Hobo Bag

Like some other styles on this list, this bag may cost you a pretty penny. But, between the high-quality leather and the unexpected-but-timeless design, trust me when I tell you: it’s worth it.

Small Solstice Shoulder Bag

Calling all Bottega fans out there who are already coveting the Andiamo bag (as seen on Jacob Elordi!).

The Everyday Crossbody

Sometimes, a simple design is the best design—especially when it’s made with high-quality, vegetable-tanned leather. You’re getting a timeless design without the bells and whistles, and it’ll only get better with wear. (Trust me.)

Mini G-Lock Leather Hobo

I saw someone in Paris carrying the larger version of this and I haven’t stopped thinking about it ever since.

Oversized Vittoria Tote

If you had an idea of what an oversized leather tote bag looks like in your head, you’re gonna want to think bigger. This may take up half the size of your body, but fret not—it’s quite comfortable (and holds everything.). I gave it a spin on a particularly rainy day to the movies and it not only held my usual necessities, but also an umbrella, a book, and a bottle of wine (with room to spare). We all need a Mary Poppins bag—why not this one?

Leather Crescent Bag

Odds are you’ve seen crescent bags popping up everywhere. This is your sign that you need one, stat.

Oversized Double Loop Bag

Everyone could use a little bit of edge, and that’s precisely when this Cuyana bag comes in handy.
