I'm not outdoorsy but I do like it! I've decided that I'm not buying any more new 3.1s because they take a ridiculous amount of time to prep. I've washed the couple new ones that I bought for M at least 15 times and they're still not prepped! So it's either dream diapers or used 3.1s I guess.

Why did I also scroll by this Facebook live announcement of smartbottoms fanny packs today? I didn't click to look but it sure looks like a fanny pack.

Yeah, what is that? I realize I'm old and might be off my diaper game, but huh?

OMG yes, I saw part of their demo! I don't know what they're calling it, but she was sticking a wallet, phone, etc into the fanny pack. It has not been long enough for fanny packs to come back in style. The function/convenience factor does not outweigh the ugly

The "modern" fanny pack is called a Bandicoot.
Lol.

I can't even believe someone would think that fanny pack was a good idea and give the go ahead to market and produce it... It's ridiculous.
I do like the new print though! I only use SB covers, though, and I really don't need any new covers.

Now, I do feel compelled to point out that from what I've read about the Bandicoot, it's being marketed as something you use while babywearing. It would look far less ridiculous worn with a tula or something. Although, I would want mine to match my carrier print so it wasn't so obvious that I'm wearing a FANNYPACK.

No but, apparently fanny packs are back in.
Like, for real.
I mean, for fashionable people. I'm sure the rest of the country won't actually use them for another year or two.
Horrifying.

FFFC: I ordered a fanny pack (or hip sack as they call them now) to match my Wonder Woman carrier because I hate carrying a purse while Babywearing.

Now see, she looks cute. That's not like the old school cheapo fancy packs that were so embarrassing.
But she's also just pretty and would probably make a burlap sack look cute.

Students at my school (who have to wear uniforms and are required to leave backpacks in their lockers) have been trying to bring back fannypacks instead of carrying pencil bags. More power to them.
That said, that's a glorified fanny pack. But rock it if you want to.
