I've still got my black leather pack from the 80's. I messaged Spiritous Systems to see about the availability of this pack and unfortunately it was a very small run. Kind of neat though.

What if the real art of the Fanny pack is to have an enticing thing to rob in plain view while your tools are hidden elsewhere on your body?

I’ve ordered and received another Eberlestock bag in blue/gray but haven’t put it into action just yet.
Here’s some shameless mirror selfies that show that with a little attention, even concealment can be kinda-sorta achieved. After many days and years of wearing a duty belt 12-plus hours a day, I’m enjoying the lighter burden when I’m on my time, yet still feeling capable of responding to a situation with appropriate tools when necessary.
I’m carrying in more of a cross-draw position which based on my body shape feels (subjective) best for me. I’ve been practice the draw and it still requires two hands for quickest access and retrieval, but even single handed, it can be accomplished.
A Sig P239 rides securely in the dedicated pistol pocket, decently securely and oriented correctly. I’m not sure how much bigger a pistol could be and still fit, but a 5” Government Model won’t fit, nor will an Glock 17. The Glock 19 is a tight right on this example.
I resemble this remark, sometimes, except, of course, for the “fanny” part. These are waist pouches or belt bags; nothing particularly “fanny” about them.
Not that I want someone to “rob” my expensive prescription Oakley sunglasses, camera flash unit, lens, etc., but, yes, the waist pouch, or visible sling bag, can be used to carry non-weapon-y things, while defensive tools are kept concealed in/under clothing.
Having mentioned a camera flash unit, I will yet again mention that a compact but serious-looking camera, carried in-hand or on a strap, will make it appear quite normal for one to also be wearing a waist pouch/bag or sling bag. (Not that cameras are welcome everywhere, of course; plan accordingly.)

I didn’t have the opportunity to set a holster up in the Kelty but I’ve been using it quite a bit. Comfortable and convenient way to carry phone, wallet, chapstick and gum. Had an unexpected trip to the ER yesterday and slipped a few protein bars into the ccw compartment.
