it is ridiculous how hard it is to find good reviews on ccw fanny packs. most of them show them being worn on the chest, then only partially show the pockets while sitting at a table and never the gun. you showed how it looks on the waist, how the pockets look, and how the gun fits, then used it. awesome video and lots of fun in the intro.

FLASH FORWARD TO 2023: Most colors are not in stock (in the US). Any retailer stocking it will likely have a higher price with shipping costs additional. I ordered the Bandicoot in GRAY from outside the US (because none of the US retailers that I saw, had the GRAY in stock). As for the next size down the "Possum" (which I was going to buy until I heard that it does not have the velcro along the inside, back of the main compartment. For me that was a deal breaker because I needed the velcro back, to attach various holsters and other CCW gear. I ordered a few Crossbreed KYDEX backed holsters, to attach to the velcro interior panel. Giving the pistol a more secure retention.

I have tried so many carry options and seem to gravitate back to the waist pack. Weapon ( pistol/bear spray/A.S.P. ) Tools ( M.T./Knife/drivers ) Medical ( what you deem as essential ) Phone, Wallet ( I.D. currency ) Keys. That is the minimum for a modern man to carry. Any less and I feel I am failing my family. This changes depending on your job and if you are married with kids. How do you carry it all? For me, It cannot be the pockets it must be in a pouch/bag that can be carried in any uniform ( gym attire to winter wear ) but removed when you are on your couch or your sleeping bag. Win for the fanny pack. Just own it.

So for me, waist pack will actually look funny on me, but if I can fix the way how I wear it. I can look likr the old school film crew. I have been finding other ways to carry most of my essentials with and without an bag. Even the short walks can turn cold in the changing temperature in a day. Sometimes I need a extra insulation or protection if the weather goes bad. Carrying waist pack might be a good choice but it can be the other way around if you think about it. My question is, will a regular hoodie (if improvised) can act like a bag in a pinch?
