Once an “embarrassing” dad trend, belt bags (also known as fanny packs) have found their way back into fashion over the past few years. While they may not be the number one bag trend right now, they’re practical, and it seems like a ton of fashion people are leaning into that regardless of what’s at the top of the trend cycle.
