Booty Wrap - The fanny pack gets a much needed makeover
I'm dying to make a reference to the fanny pack as being the butt of all tourist jokes -- oh wait, I think I just did. But let's be fair, there is something to be said to a hands-free way of carrying a little cash and your keys when you're out for a walk. One that doesn't make you look like a Jay Leno punchline.
Kathy Kramer, inventor of the very cool Invisibelt has done it again with the Booty Wrap - which is so simple, it's brilliant. Think fanny pack-meets-faux-sweatshirt.
The Booty Wrap ties at your waist with a drapey piece of fabric in back to cover your booty, sweatshirt style (admit it - we've all done it), while the front has two unobtrusive lined, zippered pockets for your stuff. The fabric is quite nice without the bulk of an actual sweatshirt. Overall, it's very well made, and four colors and three sizes means if you're between a size 0 and 24, you'll find one that suits you.
You have to appreciate the irony--use this thing enough on your power walks or gym excursions and eventually, you might not need it to hide your butt at all. -Liz

Here's Something Cool
That seems like an awful lot of fabric to carry your keys and cash.
Great idea! Anything that gets us more comfortable with getting out and exercising can only be good.
Couldn't I just use my old sweatshirt with pockets that zipper and safe myself some money?
Yep... I thought so.
Brilliant idea!
this seems like a lame home shopping network thing. what next pajama jeans?!?
I own in slate, white and black. It is super cute, comfortable and well made. It was on The Today Show yesterday as Hoda's favorite thing. They did a great segment which showed it off niecly. Luv mine!
I Like it
What a great product!!! I use it for running errands and going to flea markets. I can through my money in there and not worry about a purse strap around me. Lightweight and not bulky!!! Genius idea!!!!
Terrible idea. I agree - sounds like a QVC thing. I'd rather throw pair of shorts on with pockets. Or as Sarah (above) said - a sweatshirt around your waist does the same thing.
Pet rock, anyone?
I love this! Its great when I am running out the door or even when I'm taking my dogs out- I need a place to put my keys and phone. If I try to hold them in my hands, my dogs pull on the leashes and my fingers get stuck and phone goes flying. Not into bulky sweatshirts that won't stay tied- I have one in black.
