Hobo bags are definitely having a moment. In particular, those timeless, extra roomy designs that exude sophistication without boasting. If you’ve been eyeing Bottega Veneta’s Hop bag that ticks all those boxes, you’ll be glad to know that it is now available in a silky calfskin leather to tempt you further.
Previously only available in the brand’s signature intrecciato weave, the chic style now comes in full supple leather. Sans logos, its minimalist and discreet finish delivers a sense of understated elegance. While the carryall still carries its distinctive pyramidal shape when you hold it aloft, its supple leather construction offers a relaxed slouchy nature underarm when you sling it over the shoulder.

Besides being free of any bells or whistles, the Hop doesn’t feature any zips or unnecessary hardware either. Instead, it secures via a flap that hides a magnetic closure, making storing and retrieving your belongings a cinch. All you need is a simple lift to access the interior.
