Ulvo Hip Pack Medium

The medium Hip Pack is perfect, I have been looking for some time for a hip pack that would accommodate both my wallet and my sunglasses in their case with room to spare for little extras. It is comfortable to wear around my hip and across my chest, I am pleased with the red color. I see myself using this daily and for travel.

This hip pack is perfect for my daily run. At first, I was concerned it would move around or chafe. A lot of runners online said any kind of fanny pack is uncomfortable when running. But I took a chance for this slightly more stylish bag, and with the hope that it can be used for more than just running. It stayed in place, very comfortably, for a 25 minute run. I didn't have to readjust it at all. However, I'm sure if you packed it full of items, this would be different. I'm using this because my female shorts do not have pockets for my keys. And if I put my keys into say a fleece pull over pocket, they jiggle and I end up taking them out and running with them in my hands. Not anymore! I slip them into the secure back pocket with no jiggle at all. I also like being able to put my phone inside it when I'm walking home after my run. The material is fabulous, as expected. I have two backpacks from Fjallraven. The quality never disappoints, and is worth the cost. I ran water over the bag in the sink, and I was delighted by the water rolling off it. Someone on here complained about the zipper. I'm not sure what there is to complain about- it's just a zipper. It opens very easily while running, and it's not overly loud compared to anything else I own that has a zipper. If I have one complaint, it's the length of the excess band. I'm pretty petite in the waist, so there is definitely extra room, and the excess band kind of awkwardly lays off to the side. I have to tuck it in behind my back to hide it, though this really isn't an issue. I can just let it hang loose and it doesn't affect use. I understand these packs are made for everyone of every size, so I'm okay with it! Thanks for another great pack, Fjallraven! I'm positive I'll have it for a long time.

Especially well designed for men and the outdoors. Of course women would like it too, especially when waterproof is a plus. It's larger than I wanted but quality material and workmanship. Love the muted mustard color! Though the description sites the easy zipper, I find the zipper loud and a bit challenging to use. Great logo and smart to make it reflective. I don't think the non-removable strap would feel good on skin though it is long enough to be a shoulder or crossbody bag as well as a fanny pack.

My new great dog walking pack. It's comfortable around my waist and easily carries everything needed with 2 small bottles of water, bags, cell phone, key - and I still have room for more if needed. Love it

I did a lot of comparing of waist bags (volume, measurements, and weight) before ordering this waist pack. I have been very happy daily using Arc’teryx’s Mantis 1 - one liter in volume. Preparing for a trip, however, realized I needed a larger version that would fit a couple of individually wrapped N95 masks in addition to my cell phone (in a case), passport, and any boarding papers. The next size up in the Mantis is 2.5 liters - a little too big (mostly in the height) for what I wanted. I wanted a wider one but not necessarily higher or deeper (and not too heavy) - so it would easily fit under a zipped jacket and I could wear it without fatigue from its weight. The Ulvö Hip Pack Medium met all my requirements! The fit etc.: exactly as described/advertised. The color (Lava): what I hoped for (sometimes colors on screens can be deceiving). I’ll continue to use my Mantis 1 daily but the Fjallraven is definitely my go to for travel.
