Hobo is a term that usually refers to homeless folks. However, the Japanese label Hobo is far from that. Hobo has just released pictures of their 2008 Spring/Summer collection which features a multitude of items including shirts, bags, shoes and accessories. One of the items that stands out is the Sierra shoes by the footwear maker Diemme. Unfortunately you can only get the brand from Japan so for those who might not be able to get their hands on any Hobo items, at least you can check out their lookbook here.

Here now is the commercial which accompanies the Blason collection starring no other than Pharrell Williams himself. You can see the commercial on Youtube.
