In recent years, many people have taken up running in search of maximum well-being. As runners explore roads and trails, one essential need becomes clear: carrying belongings in the greatest comfort, with functional accessories. While the fanny pack was once considered an essential, those days are over! Times have changed, and so have expectations when it comes to ergonomics and practicality; that’s why we’re offering a whole new solution.
Fall for the ergonomics and design of our running pouch!
Why is the running pouch more practical than the 90s fanny pack ?
The fanny pack, a symbol of the 90s, was often worn at the front or back of the waist, but this placement has its limits when it comes to comfort and practicality for athletes. In comparison, modern running pouches are designed with an ergonomic shape, featuring side pockets.
This design makes it easier to access items without hindering movement!
Unlike the fanny pack, which doesn’t quite fit in with sports activities, the pouches we offer at Laboa adapt to many uses: running, hiking, horse riding, daily outings… Their versatile design makes them suitable in various contexts without discomfort; you forget you’re even wearing them, as they discreetly follow your every move.
Another advantage lies in their ability to adapt to the body’s shape. Whether you’re a man or a woman, our running pouch fits snugly against the waist like a second skin. This prevents unnecessary movements and avoids the bouncing effect often associated with fanny packs worn at the front.
Finally, their design makes them compatible with other gear, such as hiking backpacks; their low-profile fit allows you to layer accessories without bulk. On the other hand, fanny packs tend to get in the way more than they help.
What can you carry in our pouch?
Our modern running pouches have wider and deeper pockets than traditional fanny packs, offering optimized storage space for all your essentials!
Unlike fanny packs, our pouches can easily hold a smartphone, ID papers, keys, a wallet, cereal bars, or energy gels. Walkers love this level of practicality too, especially when they’re accompanied by pets eager for treats. And yes, you can also fit handy items like tissues, a small knife, or even a hoof pick.
The pocket organization keeps everything in place, preventing internal movements that could throw you off balance or cause discomfort during effort.
And it’s fair trade, ethical, and sustainable!
If you’re buying a running pouch, why not choose one with a positive impact? Forget fanny packs made under unfair conditions, where workers never see the benefit of their work! At Laboa, we offer a product born of fair trade, ethical, and supportive practices. All our models are made in Vietnam in workshops where artisans receive fair pay and respected labor rights.
We guarantee quality craftsmanship while contributing to local development.
Our commitment to quality products with positive impacts also extends to packaging choices: shipments are made in recycled and recyclable kraft envelopes. The cardboard we use is made of 70–100% recycled materials, or recovered and reused to minimize environmental impact. On top of that, we actively support social projects, for example through our partnership with the ADGESTI association.
Looking for a modern running pouch that won’t get in your way? Comfortable, ergonomic, and practical, ours meets all your needs, whether you’re a runner or a trail runner! Plus, by choosing a model born of ethical and fair trade practices, you combine sports enjoyment with responsible commitment — a choice fully aligned with today’s trends, all with a positive impact in mind.
