Product Insights
A soft, cozy square hobo bag with water-resistant faux suede and a flush magnetic snap that operates silently one-handed; it offers a modern silhouette and spacious interior but is unstructured, collapses when empty, and too casual for professional use. Buyers report it looks more expensive than its price, though the faux suede develops delamination cracks within 2–4 years, requiring gentle care, resulting in a low cost-per-wear over that lifespan.
Verified claims
- Feel
- Buyers describe the bag as soft and roomy, and one notes the unstructured shape and hopes it will wear well.
- Water resistance
- Water beads and wipes dry, handling light rain better than real suede.
- Shape
- Square silhouette offers a modern alternative to the classic crescent hobo.
- Closure
- Magnetic snap allows one-handed, silent operation.
- Appearance
- The magnetic snap has a flat profile that keeps the bag's front clean, with only a discreet metallic disc as an accent.
- Size perception
- Some buyers found the bag larger than expected, with one noting it was bigger than they thought.
- Fit
- The bag fits a tablet and daily essentials, with a wide opening and a slim 6-inch depth.
- Durability
- Faux suede (70% recycled polyester, 30% polyurethane) develops delamination cracks within 2-4 years.
- Cost-per-wear
- At the $39.95 sale price, the faux suede's expected 2–4 year lifespan makes it an affordable multi-season bag rather than a long-term investment.
- Value
- Buyers are split on value: one calls the bag classy and elegant for the budget price, while another feels it looks overpriced.
- Design
- The 18-inch square hobo design holds daily essentials and offers magnetic snap access.
- Professional compatibility
- The bag's unstructured shape and casual style are best suited to everyday casual wear rather than formal or professional settings.
- Daily usability
- Spacious bag with easy magnetic closure and organized pockets, but faux suede requires gentle care and lasts 2-4 years.
- Care and cleaning
- Spot clean with damp cloth and mild soap, air dry; avoid heat and brush regularly.
- Closure durability
- The magnetic snap is anchored with prongs and a metal backing plate, giving it a more secure grip than sew-in magnets.
- Durability limit
- Once the faux suede's polyurethane backing begins to delaminate and crack, there is no professional restoration.
- Wear pattern
- The faux suede nap flattens and turns greyish first at the strap attachment points and bottom corners.
- Top closure type
- The bag has a magnetic snap top closure and no zipper.

Didn’t like the big size plus the fact that the purse didn’t have a zipper to close the top and keep your stuff safe. Also over priced for what it ended up looking like.
I have been looking for this
I’ve been looking all winter for a suede purse that was contemporary and affordable but well made and elegant. Very glad I found and purchased. I often find that Simon’s has products that look very classy but fall into my budget
Great bag
A bit bigger than a thought, but soft and roomy. A very nice bag.
Parfait!

Great bag
I haven’t used this bag yet as purchased for fall. The price is great and quality is good. It is quite unstructured so I hope will wear well. The strap is long and I’m hoping I’ll be able to use it over the shoulder and crossbody as well. Very nice soft taupe/light brown.
