Thoughts on Bumbag?

I just pre-ordered my bumbag today (the wait is 4 months). My 2 cents: I lived through the last time “fanny packs” were the rage and was not a fan. This time around, I’m older and hopefully a little bit more fashion savvy (ie able to style it a bit better and quite frankly, not care as much). The idea is to use it for long walking days (whether traveling or traversing through the city). I like the vintage look of the bag and feel that it will be a classic...perhaps something I can use when I’m 80 and no longer care about the latest fashion (although I’m not sure that could happen). And for those that say the price is over the top...is a $1000+ bum/waist bag from another brand THAT much of a wiser buy?

I too remember fanny packs and I hated them. Now there are so many varieties and designers, it is hard not to appreciate their style. I pre-ordered the LV bumbag and received it on March 5th. I thought about returning it because it was a little bigger than I expected and I was worried about the vachetta belt getting stained. But like you said, it does have a very vintage look and I like that. I probably will not wear it around my waist, but as a crossbody and shoulder bag. I do think the price is reasonable. I wanted to get the Chanel belt bag, but I refuse to pay $2700.

Congrats on your Bumbag! Can you post mid pics?

I pre ordered my bum bag in the middle of Feb. Not sure if I can pull it off at 50. Anyone have/seen modeling shots? Really curious about pics worn cross body or just over shoulder!
