These ten fanny packs, or bum bags as the British call them, have a long history dating back to medieval times.

The advantage of wearing a belt bag is that it gives you a hands free option for storage. This is ideal at concerts, DJ sets and music festivals when you don’t want to have to keep track of a hand bag, but there is no coat check available. You can put your smartphone in there and forget about it for long enough to dance.
