The traveling hat HOBO takes its name from the American tradition of boxcar riding during the depression era and its counter culture.
Ten years ago we designed it, today, we’re celebrating its 10th Anniversary.
Ten years of being crushed without ever breaking.
Ten years of accompanying wearers through journeys and everyday adventures.
