Just like all things functional, the fanny pack has resurfaced in the fashion world. What caught on like a rage in the 80s and 90s disappeared without giving us closure. Even though athleisure and activewear brands still sold them, fanny packs were restricted to just that. But, some of us knew that it was about time these came back because functionality is subtly competing with style these days. So, yes, fanny packs have come back with a bang and are here to stay.
