Here at WIRED, we love fanny packs (or waist belts, bum baggage, no matter you wish to name them). Before the resurgence of all issues the Nineties, this may need been an unpopular confession. But now, we’re simply completely satisfied to share our affection with a wider viewers.
Fanny packs do not make your again sweat or twist your backbone. You can carry the burden in your entrance, swing it round to the again, or sling it over a shoulder. They can go from the mountaineering path to the bar with out skipping a beat, and they’ll maintain your prepare ticket and match right into a backpack whereas touring. Best of all, they’re so way more handy than attempting to suit your monumental cellphone right into a pants pocket. These are our favorites. You’re welcome.
