Best Belt Bags for Travel

Part of turning vacation mode ON is pulling out your vacation wardrobe. From busy travel days to days of exploring, you’ll need to prepare for it all with limited space. Practicality is of utmost importance when traveling, so belt bags are a game changer for traveling and vacations, long or short. Belt bags are stylish and functional, complementing almost any outfit while keeping your belongings close.

Best Belt Bag for Travel: What to Look For

Belt bags are designed to be worn around the waist, hips, crossbody, or over the shoulder to keep your hands free on the go. As with most things, though, not all belt bags are designed the same—if you’ve already been browsing, you might be aware. Some are too small to fit essential travel items like your phone, boarding pass, or passport. Some may not have organized storage, and others are simply not stylish enough to become everyday wardrobe staples.

However, there’s one that takes style, functionality, and convenience to new heights: The Pack. Look it over, and you’ll soon understand why it’s one of the best belt bags for traveling. Consider the following as you compare The Pack to other belt bags for traveling.

What to consider when buying a belt bag for travel

Purpose and use: Traveling might mean you’re carrying things you don’t usually carry, or that you need to keep your essentials organized so you know exactly where they are when you need them. You may need to carry your passport, battery pack, tickets, maps, keys and wallet, and more. At times, you’ll have many of these items out, and you may have to quickly pack them away again to ensure your hands are free to carry other belongings.

There’s also a chance you’re limited on what you can bring, as some airlines and tickets only allow one personal item nowadays. A functional belt bag provides the space you need and organizational features to hold your valuables while keeping your hands free. Wear it while you’re sitting, standing, or even napping. Eliminate shoving your purse under the seat or trying to find a safe place to set it while you grab a bite to eat or wait for your ride. Belt bags can be worn crossbody, around the waist or hips, or over the shoulder so effortlessly that you might even forget you have one.

Material and durability: Material and durability are important to consider for several reasons when choosing the right belt bag. Let’s start with the material. You might wear the belt bag for extended periods while traveling, so you’ll want one that’s comfortable. Try the velvet Sable Pack to elevate the cozy travel vibes, or our polyester Grey or Chambray Pack that’s quick to wipe down and versatile for casualwear and athleisure.

That takes us to the durability component: from having our hands full to being in busy public places, traveling can take a toll on your personal items. You’ll want a high-quality belt bag that’s easy to clean. Think about details like a two-way zipper that easily glides open or a sturdy clip with a locking buckle that keeps the belt bag secure on your body. Your new favorite belt bag will get plenty of use, and you’ll want to get the most out of it. Choose The Pack for a high-quality, durable belt bag that’s ready for any adventure.

Space and size: Functionality is key. The Pack is the perfect size (11.5L x 9H x 4.5D) to carry the essentials and then some, without looking bulky or oversized on your body. With features like an interior zippered pocket, elastic strap to attach keys, spacious pockets on the front and back exterior, and a hideable bottle holder, The Pack outperforms comparable belt bags. While The Pack is well-loved, consider your personal preferences, including space (for the things you need to carry) and size (what is most comfortable to wear), as you narrow down the ideal belt bag for your lifestyle.

Price: Belt bags can vary in cost, and drastically for that matter. Finding a high-quality belt bag that’s functional and stylish with a reasonable price tag is key. A good belt bag should last for years, so investing in one that’s high-quality and durable should be a priority. At $62, The Pack checks off all the boxes.

Comfort: Comfort is key, especially when you’re traveling. You’ll want a belt bag like The Pack that’s comfortable to wear in terms of how it rests on your body, the bag’s size, and the confidence it gives you that your things are safe.

Secure storage: While most of your belongings will be zipped inside the belt bag, secure storage goes beyond one secure pocket. Interior and exterior pockets can make items easier to retrieve and reduce the fumbling around you’ll need to retrieve your items. This can also reduce the likelihood of your valuables falling out when the belt bag is open. The Pack includes features like an interior zippered pocket, an elastic strap to attach keys, and spacious pockets on the front and back exterior to keep items secure and easy to access.
