At first, the return of the fanny pack felt a bit like a gimmick. Street style stars were already tapping right into the comfort of athleisure and nostalgia for the ’90s and ’80s over the past couple years. It seemed to make sense that a bag trend—even one that has the mom-on-vacation vibes (I say this as I equate them to my own mother wearing one on family vacations)—would also find a place among those who wanted to push the needle as far as bold personal style goes. But 2018 has me rethinking everything.
