Photographers and fanny packs?

8 years 3 weeks ago #479106 by One Creative Girl
Let's hold the laughs.  But I picked up a fanny pack and I've been using it and have to say, it works great for holding spare batteries, memory cards, a flash and a few other misc. items. 
Just wondering if anyone else is sporting an infamous fanny packs?

It's hard to even pretend to be cool wearing one.  LOL.  Seriously my wife got me one a couple years ago and although it is very functional and convenient.  I couldn't get myself to wear it long term.

I've used a fanny pack for years and years. Of course I'm an old guy and don't care about fashion!

Yeah, are fanny packs an eye sore?  YES!  Do they have function?  YES!  I have one, and will don it from time to time.

My wife bought me one a couple years ago, it's a nice one.  I just haven't gotten around to wearing it much.  Don't know why.  :whistle:

I have no problem wearing one.  I'll certainly be winning no fashion awards any time soon.  But they are functional!  Very.
