Definition: Ruggedly handsome hobo
Ruggedly handsome hobo (noun phrase)
An informal English expression that describes a homeless man (hobo) who, despite his unkempt, dirty, or disheveled appearance (messy hair, beard, worn and tattered clothes), possesses a natural, masculine physical attractiveness — sharp facial features, expressive eyes, confident posture — that makes him appear charismatic, cool, or even model-like.
The word “ruggedly” suggests a rough, unpolished kind of handsomeness associated with a tough, outdoor lifestyle. “Handsome” means attractive, and “hobo” is an older American term (somewhat romanticized) for a homeless person, vagabond, or itinerant beggar.
The phrase is often used with a tone of admiration or ironic humor, highlighting the contrast between extreme poverty/neglect and obvious physical appeal.
3 example sentences:
“When photos of that bearded guy sleeping on the subway bench went viral, everyone started calling him the ruggedly handsome hobo of New York – he looked like he could walk straight onto a fashion runway.”
“The internet fell in love with another ruggedly handsome hobo last week: long messy hair, torn jacket, but those piercing blue eyes and sharp jawline made him instantly famous.”
“Brother Sharp from China is the original ruggedly handsome hobo – back in 2010, pictures of him strutting down the street in layered rags turned him into an overnight fashion icon.”
