I’m clearly the naysayer here - I am a fan of the fanny pack! Sometimes I just want to be hands-free but don’t have enough pockets and also don’t want to carry a handbag. I don’t think I would pick this version, tho.
Thoughts on Bumbag?

Lol no worries on sounding harsh.
As far as the fanny situation. My bestie and I had differing first impressions:
I thought what you did, “bum” as in fanny.
Her first impression was (besides not liking it) that she associated the word “bum” with an offensive term or slang for a homeless person.
I agree with wanting to be hands free as well, which is why I love cross-bodies. And you can actually wear the Bumbag (the name sounds so funny to me) crossbody too. Not just as the traditional tourist-y “fannypack.”
I'm not a huge fan of it but I know people will buy these like crazy. I might change my mind once I see modeling pics though.
I have the gange from many moons ago
I like the mono outdoor version from ss18 and a good option when riding
Purcharse what you like and will use

Agreed. The SS18 bumbag looks much better to me.
Believe it or not y’all.. when i was a sales associate people would ask us every single week (hardly exaggerating) if we sold fanny packs. So i can assure you guys this will be a HIT. I remember when we had our employee fanny packs people used to gush all over them. LV finally cracked and brought them back!
I think the whole fanny pack thing is coming back from rather more street style than “fashion fashion” (do I make sense?! 
).
The whole “HYPE BEAST” thing.
Fanny packs have always been the go to bag in street style and brands like Supreme (oh wait! Wasn’t there a collab?!?! ;-P) and/or The North Face always released fanny packs and they sell like crazy.
The way to wear it would probably be crossbody and if the fanny pack isn't too big, have the pouch part in front.
All high end designers had fanny packs throughout time and those vintage ones also caught the attention of so called hype beasts. So I guess it’s natural for all the designers to come back with fanny packs. Look at Gucci, they sell really well these days.
I think the LV bum bag will also be a hit.
I’ve seen people already gushing over it on Instagram and read that there are already waiting lists as well!
I personally am 50/50 on this version. I like the fact that it’s shaped like a classic fanny pack and not rectangular. Cause rectangular ones always look like a “pouch on a belt”.

Can’t wait for your reveal! This is definitely an interesting one.....
Nope! I remember people wearing these in the 90´s. I always thought they look awful
