Fanny Packs Are The New Black

Dajo must have just emerged from a 15 year spelunking trip because they’re launching a line of fanny packs. Someone needs to tell these guys that fanny packs immediately qualify anyone who wears them as a grade-A nimrod. It takes a special kind of person to look at a fanny pack and say, “That’ll make me look outdoorsy and not like an anemic, asthmatic 14-year-old boy.”

    Hello Rocky,

    I don’t know if you have ever gone for day hike/walk/trek and thought a backpack was just a bit too much. Dajo Adventure Gears’ “lumbar” packs work great. I have tried all 3, depending on the length of the trail. They sit on the small of your back, you barely feel like you have it on – that’s how comfortable it feels (even with full water bottles). I don’t consider myself a “grade-A-nimrod”. I challenge you to try one of the models out on your next day hiking trip.

    They are not fanny packs, they are “lumbar packs”. They have been a hot seller for Outdoor Wares. People love them. So until you try one…..
