Why We Designed The Bandolier
A fanny pack was not on the list of products we were going to design until a friend contacted us with a custom order. This was early days of the 2nd wave of fanny packs and we wanted to create something that felt different from your dad's belt bag in the 90's. We posted a story showing the custom bag and were immediately asked to make more - so we made 10 and sold them in 24 hours. They have been one of our favourite products to test new leathers and colour combos on and have remained a staple piece for Thistle for the last 6 years.

More Stories About The Bandolier

Who Named It
We take our naming seriously around here and we knew we didn't want to call it Fanny Pack. We also knew most people weren't going to use it as a belt bag but would likely sling it around their body. We sold the first 10 without a name until my brother called the The Bandolier, and it stuck.

Our First Time Using One
We promised ourselves we would never use a fanny pack again (if you grew up in the 90's you understand) but now this was our most popular product so we decided we had to test it out for ourselves. We must admit that in the summer when days are hot and pockets are limited the Bandolier is incredibly convenient.

What Fits Inside
We recommend our Gambler or Tommy wallet, keys, phone and your lip chap. We have also been told you can fit one diaper, dog bags and treats, a thin long sleeve or a water bottle.
