Ever since that '90s staple, the fanny pack, made a comeback on the runways, everyone has changed their minds about them. Especially after Kendall Jenner and Beyoncé began wearing fanny packs of their own, and street style stars continuously rock them in the front row at Fashion Week. The industry has fully re-embraced this beloved throwback accessory, and it's time you do, too.

If you're still skeptical about the trend or haven't yet found the fanny pack you love, I understand. There are plenty of duds out there, which is why I went on a hunt to find the very best ones. These include the most current styles and at every price point. Whether you want a pouch for your trips to the grocery store, a sporty look, or a designer one to replace your crossbody bag with, you'll find the one within the options ahead.

For the classic monogram fanny pack that is simple and feels vintage, like you've had it for years, scoop up this option from Coach. It has a leather trim, an easy zip closure, and comes with interchangeable crossbody/belt straps when you want to wear this as a crossbody bag.
