The essentials you take with you every day each serve an important purpose. Whether it’s your keys, cell phone, sunglasses or even an EpiPen, keeping them within easy reach is practical and reassuring, wherever your activities or travels take you. Worn around the waist or over the shoulder, the fanny pack is ideal for carrying your belongings when you’re on the go.

The fanny pack (also waist bag) can be adjusted to fit your waist or lengthened to sling over your shoulder. It’s the perfect companion to keep your essentials close at hand whether you’re heading out to a festival or going for a bike ride.

Besides keeping your most important items safe, like an EpiPen, the fanny pack is also a practical sport accessory and a must-have fashion piece that completes any outfit.

Here are six reasons you need a fanny pack (or two!) in your life: 

1- Insulated pouch for an EpiPen

Anyone with a severe allergy will want to keep an EpiPen close at hand at all times, especially if it’s a matter of life and death. A fanny pack makes it easy for anyone, especially children, to carry the device with them wherever they go. Some bags are even equipped with an insulated pouch designed to keep EpiPens at the right temperature.

2- Hands-free convenience

Nothing beats walking around hands-free, with all your valuables safely tucked away, close to you. Wearing a fanny pack at a festival or concert means being able to wave your hands in the air (like you just don’t care!) or holding your food truck taco in one hand and beverage in the other. Make sure you add ‘waist bag’ to your next event checklist—you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it!

3- Safe and secure
