I just want to weigh in on this bag to dispel the accusation that we love anything python. We hated the B bag so as you can see here the B hobo is doubly bad. The oversize buckle sits stupidly in the middle of this unoriginal hobo. Why does it have to be so big? It’s awkward and unbalanced, like the B belt - who the hell is going to wear that and look proportionate? It’s like 2 feet high so you need at least a 6 foot torso. Seriously, Zena the Warrior Princess would have a hard time pulling that look off and could probably use it to slay dragons or whatever it is that she slays. I just don’t understand the obsession with this big buckle. I expect to receive hate emails tomorrow for talking about this because I know people who love the belt, but hey, that’s the price I pay to be a blabber mouth. So back to the bag, I find it to be an imprudent use of precious exotic. I am going to start a new organization called PAWS, People Against the Wasteful use of Skins. And we will cite bags like this as not deserving of exotic skins. I guess if you love the hobo you can get it in leather and look like a mindless slave to fashion but please save the exotic for better things. At Bergdorf Goodman for $3520.

Pass... the buckle is so not cool looking
Kelly, you are right-there is just too much snake on these bags.
Fendi is hit and miss these days. I'm glad the It Bag bubble is bursting. This bag is just a shame. I actually liked the B bag (even if it looked like it cost fifteen bucks), but this just has too much going on. I love the gold spy bag, but this, well, no.
I would definitely like to put these bags in the boring, unneccessary, and ugly category! ;-)

This is a total mess of a bag.
Well i will buy these bag to use it as a saddle for my horse, And use the belt so that is so that the saddle bag is tightly secure to sit on. I am also a member of PAWS
You're right - it's not gorgeous. It's hideous! I'm right behind you with PAWS! And on that note, from the PETA website: "Snakes and lizards are often skinned alive because of the belief that live flaying imparts suppleness to the finished leather. "
i really like the skin on the yellow and white bag, but i totally agree with you kelly...what a waste!
I hate python handbags!
