NOTE: Even though the fabrics used are water resistant and there are few seams the fanny pack is NOT waterproof. Always protect anything sensitive to moisture (electronics, cash, card) in a drybag/zipploc.
A simple hip bag also called fanny pack was fashionable in the 90s, but why revive it? Just fashion?
Whether you like this kind of bag, they still hold many advantages:
Easy access: on the front, without even lifting your arms
Large volume : bottles+snacks+warm jacket fits inside
Protects from the elements : water resistant fabrics and often under the rain jacket/poncho when you wear it
Carry only what is necessary to climb from a pass to a summit
Move in the city with your means of payment stored elsewhere than in your hands
Can also be used on a bicycle by placing it on the back
A privileged place for your photo/video equipment: no more excuses not to immortalize this meeting with a marmot
Increase your autonomy by one to two days’ worth of food
Relieve your shoulders when discomfort is present
