We're going to Alaska in June and wanted a large enough fanny pack to hold passports, money, credit cards, 2 cameras, hotel & ship cards keys, gum, event tickets, small gift purchases, chapstick..etc. I wanted my hands free to take photos, and not lug a big purse around every time we went somewhere. This fanny pack is HUGE, and is ABSOLUTELY perfect for my needs. It will EASILY hold my Cannon SI IS, an extra telephoto lense, my smaller Kodak digital camera, extra SD cards and STILL have tons of room left over in the main compartment !!! It has 2 additional zippered areas off the main compartment. One is behind the main zippered area & could be used for passports and trip tickets, and a front zippered area for keys, chapstick, gum, money and other things you want to get to first. Zippers work smoothly and effortlessly.The leather is thick, soft and smooth with quality construction throughout. The waist strap DOES fully extend out fit someone with a 48" girth, but not an inch more. Anyone going on a cruise, shore / land excursions, a sigt seeing vacation, Motorcycle trip or a mom with a few kids will find this fanny pack the PERFECT TRIP COMPANION. It will give you YEARS of use. I'm thrilled with it.
