High end fanny packs are increasingly popular. From left-to-right: Gucci leather belt bag, a coral Hershel Supply Co. fanny pack from Urban Outfitters, and a large leather black Rag & Bone fanny pack with zippers.

Love them or hate them, fanny packs are having a moment. High-end designers are putting out their own versions left and right. From miniature quilted versions to giant zippered belt bags, it seems that everywhere we look there's a new one.

If dropping over $1k on a fashionable Gucci fanny pack seems a tad bit outrageous to you (as it does 98% of the population, including us), we scoured the internet and rounded up some fanny packs that look high fashion, without the designer price tag. 

More affordable fanny packs, from left-to-right: a metallic muted silver round fanny pack from Aerie that says "I'm off duty," a small quilted pink belt bag from Forever 21, and a pink soft Shearling fur waist bag from Anthropologie.
