Are Fanny Packs Still Cool in 2024?

Listen up, girls. For way too long, we’ve been playing the pocketless game, and let's be real, it’s been a total drag. We’ve been lugging around giant handbags when all we really need is a place to stash our phone, keys, and maybe a lip gloss. We know, we know, we could complain about it forever, but what’s that gonna solve??


Well, we decided to do something about it. What if you could have a tiny, trusty sidekick for those times when you just need your phone, keys, and maybe a little lipstick? Wouldn’t that be awesome! Enter the world of the waist pack, or as some call it, the fanny pack. Yep, we're talking about those little bags you wear around your waist. Hold on… aren’t those bags like really boring and dull (like why are they just all black, where’s all the colour gone?) Don't you worry! That’ not the Ecoright way. Not only have we given them a major upgrade and made them  stylish, but also made them optimally designed that they’re an excellent choice as a travel waist bag!

 

But, let's start with the basics first, why are they called Fanny Packs? First made in the year 1962 by Australian Melba Stone and inspired by the kangaroo pouches, Fanny packs were first worn in the west while going to the gym, or going hiking or a run. 

 

Back in the day, when Fanny Packs were all the rage, they were like mini safes for your essentials, keeping your valuables out of the clutches of sneaky souvenir snatchers! These waistbags for men & women are the ultimate travel companions, keeping your essentials close and your style on point. 

 

But let's talk about why you, yes YOU, need one in your life. Picture this: you're crushing a workout, phone and keys safely tucked away. Or you're navigating a music festival with your squad, all your essentials at your fingertips. Maybe you're exploring a new city, hands free to snap that perfect photo. The fanny pack is the ultimate hands-free waist pack bag hero, keeping your stuff organised and secure while letting you conquer your day (or night) in style.
