This is the nicest fanny pack I've owned. There are lots of places to put things, strong zippers that open from either side, and a great sturdy clip on the belt latch that doesn't break even when I brace a bag of groceries on the pack. The burgundy/purple color is not as vibrant as pictured and looks almost black or dark brown until you get it in the bright light and see the purple hue. But if they had it in more colors, I'd have to buy one in each color they made!

This one (catalog # 946424) has 6 pouches, enough to organize nearly all my things so that everything is easily accessible. I have only one complaint about the pack itself: I must put my pens into the main pouch, and it is awkward (for me anyway) to get a pen out while at the same time keep the wallet & checkbook in. I do have another minor complaint, which is in the 2nd paragraph. This pack has small pockets on the edges of the belt, which are 2 inches long, 2 to 3 inches high and flat that are appropriate for coins and other small things such as pills, but too small for much else. It has two medium sized pockets about 5 inches long by 4 inches tall on the very front. The front most one is flat, and I use it for lip balm & breath spray; its zipper is on the front about 1 inch from the top. This makes the top inch almost unusable. The other front pouch I use for grocery store membership cards, coupons and such; it is about ¾ inch deep. Its zipper is at the very top. The main pouch is about 8 inches long, 5.5 inches tall and 3 inches deep. It holds checkbooks, wallets, and such very nicely with ample room to spare. There is another semi-hidden pouch whose zipper would be against the wearer¿s body. It is large enough for emergency items, spare keys, and other flat items. I ordered a different fanny pack (catalog # 11229083) first because this one was out of stock however, once I realized that this one was available, I quickly bought this one. That other pack has only 5 pouches some of which are quite small, and 2 of which are against the wearer¿s body and are flat. Both packs have pouches for cell phones that I excluded from the number of pouches. Hence, that other one has 6 rather than 5 pouches, and the one that is the subject of this review has 7 altogether. I immediately transferred my stuff from that one (catalog # 11229083) to this one (catalog # 946424), only to realize that this one¿s belt was such that it would place the pack on my right hip or the buckle on my back. All the other packs I have ever had had the pack on the left hip. Fortunately, my shoe repair guy was able to exchange the straps; otherwise, I would have had to wear the buckle on my back or the pack on my right hip. The belt is 1.5 inches wide, and the material is quite thick. The buckle also appears quite sturdy. That other pack (catalog # 11229083) had a 1 inch wide belt whose material was notably thinner than this one¿s. These were the 1st packs I had that had cell phone pouches, and I find that as I often lean against things, my phone is better off in the pack. Both packs¿ main pouches have zippered flap openings, while all other pouches have zippers but no flaps except cell phone pouches that have flaps and Velcro closures. Thus, it is easy to access items in the main pouches, but can be a bit awkward to access those in the other pouches depending upon how full they are. Moreover, this pack (catalog # 946424) is noticeably larger than the other one (catalog # 11229083). I suppose it is a matter of how much stuff one carries in the pack, but I prefer to keep all my stuff except my primary keys in the pack. I had been using cargo shorts after my old pack¿s buckle broke, but it was awkward to have so many items to stuff into my pockets, and I often forgot some of them. It would have been nice if there were divisions inside the main pouch as there were in the EMS (Eastern Mountain Sports) packs that I had been using for several years. However, the EMS packs that I used were much smaller than either of these and that style is no longer available anyway. I am very happy with this pack, and expect it will last a good long while, as it appears to be quite sturdy. Even with the belt placing the pack on the right hip (see 2nd paragraph), I rate this pack a solid 5/5. Only time will tell if I have overestimated it.

Its made of good leather and is a great vulue for the money. I would buy another one if I needed to from Overstock

I purchased 2 fanny packs, one for myself and one for my husband. I used it as my purse. There was plenty of room for all my essentials plus the cell phone feature was great! My husband even used his to carry the digital camera in. It has many hidden zippers for money or credit cards. I used one of them for my passport. I would definitely recommend this to anyone going on a trip

I am more than satisfied with my purchase. Quality is excellent and the price was great. It's everything I need.

This is exactly as advertised, roomy and convenient, study well made. Just what I wanted. It is a little tricky to tighten to my waist (the usual slide buckle design). And the price was right.

Seems like a good quality item overall at a reasonable price. Several leather fanny packs that I've purchased locally at Wilson Leather haven't held up -- this one appears to be a higher quality at a similar price. My only negative comment is the small outside zipper compartments on the either side of the belt are a bit too small for convenient use for coin storage. I'd recommend this item.

This is the 2nd time I've bought this product. My previous one lasted 2 years and then the zipper broke which was fine because it withstood a lot of wear and tear. I liked it so much that I bought another one. I just got my new fanny pack and 2 weeks later the waiststrap has frayed and come out of the stitching on the side. I now have to take it to a leather store to have it sewn on. I don't know if this was just a fluke or not....
