Whether you’re new to the trend or looking to up your belt bag game, The Pack has the features you never knew you needed and the aesthetic to complete any look.

Different Ways to Style a Belt Bag

How are you supposed to wear belt bags?

When we said belt bags are versatile, we meant it. While you can wear a belt bag however you prefer, here are some popular ways to wear belt bags.

Crossbody/across your chest or back: Belt bags are most commonly worn crossbody in the front with the bag off-center (over the chest or the stomach), but can also be worn with the bag across the back. The term belt bag can be used interchangeably with a fanny pack, although when most think of a fanny pack, they think of the classic 1980s fanny pack style.
Over your shoulder: Belt bags can be worn over the shoulder, similar to a traditional handbag. Some outfits may call for a relaxed vibe, or the situation may call for a quick way to grab your belt bag and go. Luckily, your belt bag is always ready.
Around your waist: Belt bags can also be worn around the hips or waist—think 1980s fanny pack style.

Belt bags should be versatile, functional, and durable. Most importantly, though, they should match your style. The Pack is available in 6 colors and a range of high-quality materials, so you can find the right match for every outfit. It has all the storage and features you need for a quick trip to the store, an active hike, a long day at the zoo, or even an international flight. Pick your outfit, style it with The Pack, and keep everything you need in arm’s reach.

Clothing style options to wear with a belt bag

Belt bags might be notorious in the athleisure space, but there are many more ways to wear them—just look around next time you’re out. If you need some inspo, here are some ideas for styling your belt bag.

Over a maxi dress: Maxi dresses are a go-to for warmer days. From strolling the resort on vacation to hitting brunch and running errands, pair your maxi dress with a stylish belt bag to carry your things and complete the look. Picture the perfect solid-colored or striped maxi dress paired with The Pack in Cognac or Cream vegan leather. Chic and practical!
With a crop top: Crop tops are a wardrobe staple for many. From sophisticated two-piece crop top sets to athleisure crop tops, they can always go well with a belt bag. For a fun crop top look, try a black crop top with jeans or black bottoms paired with the Snow Leopard Pack. Now you’re ready for day or night.
With high-waisted pants: Some of us know nothing but high-waisted pants at this point, and with good reason. Similar to a belt bag, high-waisted pants are stylish and reliable. Slip on your favorite pair with a cozy oversized sweater or fun summer top, and finish the look with a belt bag and some sneakers. Keep it casual with our Chambray Pack, or choose Sable for a more elevated look.
With a skirt set: Two-piece sets turn heads, and when you find sets you love, they can make you feel happy, comfortable, and confident. Two-piece sets can be anything from matching biker shorts and a crop top to lounge pants with a matching top to a sophisticated pantsuit set—all different aesthetics that mesh perfectly with The Pack. Pick the perfect color or fabric to complete your look and bring it all together.
Add a pop of color to a monochromatic outfit: Monochromatic outfits can go perfectly with a simple sneaker and belt bag. The Pack in vegan leather Cream can add an elegant pop of color to any monochrome outfit. If you’re going for a bolder look, try the Snow Leopard Pack.
Pair with athleisure: Athleisure has seemingly taken over. From the office to the park, athleisure offers a casual yet cool and collected vibe, echoing the vibe of the perfect belt bag. Men and women can pair joggers and a T-shirt with a belt bag for a simple athleisure style. The Pack in Grey or Chambray is the perfect touch to tie it together—or elevate the look with The Pack in Cognac vegan leather.

The Pack is more than just stylish; it’s practical, durable, and versatile. With features like an interior zippered pocket, elastic strap to attach keys, outer D-ring attachment, spacious pockets on the front and back exterior, and an adjustable strap (up to 60 inches), The Pack is definitely the leader of the belt bag pack.
