HOBO Sales FAQ
When is the best time to buy HOBO bags on sale?
The absolute best time is the Summer Warehouse Sale in mid-July, which offers up to 75% off hundreds of styles. This is HOBO's biggest sale of the year.
Other great times include National Handbag Day around October 10 (25% off sitewide plus free shipping), Black Friday and Cyber Monday in late November (up to 50% off), and the Pre-Christmas and Boxing Day sales in December (up to 40% off).
What is the Last Chance section and how much can I save?
The Last Chance section is HOBO's deepest clearance area featuring discontinued styles and seasonal items at 55-75% off original prices. This is much steeper than the regular sale section, which typically offers 25-40% off.
Does HOBO offer free shipping?
Yes, HOBO offers free shipping on orders over $175 to US destinations where UPS Ground service is available. This discount is automatically applied at checkout with no code needed.
During major sales like National Handbag Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday, free shipping is often included with promotions regardless of purchase amount.
What is HOBO's return and exchange policy?
HOBO accepts returns and exchanges for new, unworn merchandise with original packaging and tags within 30 days from the purchase date. Exchanges are free, but returns have a $7 handling fee deducted from your refund.
Items marked FINAL SALE at the time of purchase cannot be returned or exchanged. Use the HOBO Returns Portal with your order number and shipping zip code to start a return or exchange.
What is The Common Thread Club rewards program?
The Common Thread Club is HOBO's free rewards program. You earn points with every dollar spent and can use those points for discounts on future purchases.
Creating an account is free and gives you access to exclusive member perks and early notifications about upcoming sales.
Are HOBO bags worth the price?
HOBO bags are known for their high-quality leather, skilled craftsmanship, and timeless designs. The brand has built a reputation for durable, versatile bags that last for years.
If you use your bag daily, the cost per wear becomes very reasonable. Many owners report their HOBO bags lasting for many years with proper care, which justifies the investment.
What is HOBO Vintage and how does it work?
HOBO Vintage is the brand's official resale platform where you can buy and sell pre-owned HOBO bags. It's a great way to find discontinued styles or snag deals on gently used bags at lower prices.
This sustainability initiative extends the life of HOBO products and gives shoppers access to styles that may no longer be available on the main site.
How often does HOBO have sales?
HOBO runs several major sales throughout the year, including the Summer Warehouse Sale (July), National Handbag Day (October), Better Than Black Friday, Black Friday, Cyber Monday (November), and Pre-Christmas and Boxing Day sales (December).
Beyond these events, the Sale and Last Chance sections offer year-round discounts on select styles, so there's almost always an opportunity to save.
Can I shop HOBO sales if I live outside the US?
Yes, most HOBO sales are accessible globally through hobobags.com, though international shipping policies and costs apply. The free shipping threshold of $175 is primarily for US orders.
Major events like the Summer Warehouse Sale, National Handbag Day, and Black Friday/Cyber Monday promotions are available to international shoppers, but check shipping times and costs before ordering.
What's the difference between HOBO's Sale and Last Chance sections?
The Sale section offers 25-40% off on regular discounted items, while the Last Chance section features 55-75% off discontinued colors, styles, and seasonal items that are being cleared out.
Last Chance offers the deepest savings but with limited quantities and selection. Once these items sell out, they're usually gone for good, so if you see something you like, grab it quickly.
