- Water Resistance:
We use waterproof Xpac and water resistant zipper but we do not seal our seams. Therefore the bag is water resistant, NOT water proof.
Customers have said they hold up well under a light to medium rain. We recommend removing water sensitive items from the fanny pack if you're in a steady, heavy rain or have a ziplock handy inside of the fanny pack.

Since my Backpacking Packs do not have hip belt pockets, I had been looking for a good strap pocket for my trail snacks that was adjustable enough for use with my daypacks.
I also wanted a shoulder strap mounted 700mm water bottle pocket since I can never reach the bottle from the side pockets of the backpack. I bought a set of each from CTUG. They are made well with good materials and are very adjustable. I like them so much I gave one set to my daughter which means I will be ordering another set.

I buy packs (mainly Osprey) without hip belt pockets since my arms hit the pockets when I am on the go. I have been looking for a suitable strap mounted pocket and water bottle holder for several years. I FINALLY found the Chicken Trampers products. I have bought 4 sets of large chest strap pockets and 0.7L water bottle holders to set up my day hiking and backpacks. They are functional, WELL made, using durable materials. The attention to design details is excellent (from a very seasoned engineer).

Love this addition, I chose to get the sealed seams since I’m using it for electronics. My battery back up fits in it as well as 2 phones. I’m under 20lbs with food and water, I can take 2 phones, lol. For me it’s about convenience and the weight is negligible, so worth it!

This is the 4th item I’ve bought from CTUG and all have been superbly designed and manufactured. The chest pocket has a great zipper, quality fabric, ultralight weight, and excellent attachment straps and hardware. The price is very reasonable, too. Can’t wait to use this on the Colorado Trail.

The Zipper Pocket is wonderful to put your phone/satellite messenger/snack bar/sunglasses. In a world where hip pockets aren't big enough to hold a phone, this is very valuable. Because the pouch is actually deep, the pocket can hold my phone that's 6.2". Quality is great. I've snapped it on my Gregory Octal pack and it stays put! I'm probably going to get one for every pack I own.

I have been looking for a water bottle sleeve and a strap pocket to fit my large phone with case (7" x 3.5"). The Chicken Tramper Zipper Pocket seemed to be the only thing that fit, so I ordered both items. I am VERY impressed with not only the quality of the materials but the quality workmanship as well. The finishing on the seams is first rate and the clips and sliders allow a great amount of adjustability. Thank you Chicken Tramper for great products and great customer service. I will be recommending your gear to others.
WANT A DIFFERENT SIZE OR CUSTOM COLOR?
We offer Fanny Packs in 3 sizes and custom colors in the 1 Liter and 2.5 Liter sizes!
The 4 way stretch Lycra Mesh pocket on the inner panel is perfect for organizing your gear in your fanny pack! Keep your phone secure in the pocket or use it to keep the smaller loose items like chapstick, keys and headphones!
We use Water Resistant #5 Uretek Zipper from YKK for the closure of this fanny pack. This zipper is durable and keeps your gear safe from a light rain.
We recommend stowing your Fanny Pack in your backpack if you're hiking in persistent or heavy rain.
We use 3D Spacer Mesh for the back panel and inner strap wings to optimize comfort and breathability of the Fanny Pack.
We install two zipper toggles on the fanny pack to allow you to open the lid from either direction.
We make these Fanny Packs with durable and waterproof VX21 Xpac. This means that the fanny pack will be able to keep the gear inside dry in a light to moderate rain.
We do not seal our seams though, so submerging the fanny pack or hiking in a heavy rain is not recommended.
We include 1/2" elastic loops on the webbing straps to be used to keep the slack webbing from hanging down from the buckle.
Our buckles are both lightweight and durable to ensure a secure fit, light carry and long life to your Fanny Pack.
The buckles can be adjusted on either side by sliding the webbing through the tensioner, this lets you adjust where the buckle sits along the strap.
Our straps are around 55" and can be used as a fanny pack overtop cold weather gear or can be extended to use as a cross body bag as well!
which size fanny pack should i buy?
We offer 3 sizes of Fanny Pack here at CTUG, the 1 Liter, the 2.5 Liter and the 4 Liter. Most long distance hikers are happy with the 1 Liter or the 2.5 Liter, while a few prefer the 4 Liter.
The 1 Liter is great for just the essentials, the 2.5 Liter packs a bit more for those that don't want to stop to snack, and the 4 Liter lets you take just about everything but the kitchen sink.
