"Real men don't use a fanny pack."

No, they don't.

They deploy utilizing modern-day possibles bags crafted of leather or nylon.

hey the maxpedition stuff is pretty cool.....im a gear freak and i love my jumbo versipack. I dont wear it all the time, but definitely in any outdoor setting. Usually i just have all my gear in it and carry it to the car and leave it there.....if you love packs and bags and gadgets you need to check out their website.....stuff is bulletproof (not literally) and very well put together

The Maxpedition man bags are the goods. I like their Versipacks.

My rule is simpler.

No belt loops= fanny pack

Belt loops= holster

No way. Not because of "manliness" or anything, though I seriously think I could get away with riding a moped to work (people would just laugh, then shrug) before a F.P. (they'd laugh, then point, then laugh some more)- but I just want it tighter than hanging off me in a bag, feel the orientation. More comforting. But I.D.K. because pocket carry is even pushing it for me in that respect, so Y.M.M.V.

I have to admit those are some cool F.P.'s though.

Patience. He's working on a solid F.P. related one-liner to close with.
