SInce its inception, the fanny pack has ebbed in and out of fashion. A staple of the1990s, you could strap it around your waist and forget about it, while still being confident that your most-precious items — Discman, Blockbuster Membership Card, and Gameboy were safe.
The look seems to once again be having a moment as evidenced by Chicago-based bag and accessories brand, 1733’s Side Pack — essentially an oversized fanny pack built for daily carry, hiking, and travel. Thanks to adjustable straps, it can be worn cross-body or around the waist, or even be carried like a briefcase, and it’s made from a high performance, water-resistant fabric so your gear won’t get damaged if you gett stuck in the rain. The pack features a main compartment large enough to fit books and a water bottle, while the interior pocket will keep smaller items like pens, knives, and chargers secure. Plus, the addition of a removable shock cord helps stash gloves, hats and other lightweight gear.
