These days the hip pack – formerly known as a bum bag – is more popular than ever, and it's easy to see why. It frees up your pockets, gives you space to carry a few more essentials without the faff of a backpack, and crucially lets you keep your valuables secure when you're exploring new cities. This one from Cotopaxi boasts loads of useful features, including an interior phone compartment, side compression straps, grab handles, and a variety of zipped and flap pockets. The strap is nice and long so you can style it however you want. Wear it front, back or side – or even across your chest like a sort of micro-sling bag.
Cotopaxi’s tagline is ‘gear for good’, and before you roll your eyes at yet another outdoor brand making lofty claims about their eco credentials, these guys really do walk the walk. They’re certified climate neutral, with rigorous ethical manufacturing standards and even a grants scheme that supports organisations fighting global poverty.
They also prioritise the use of recycled and reclaimed materials, which includes some imaginative upcycling – like their ‘Del Día’ range made from repurposed fabrics. Other product lines make use of leftover fabrics discarded by other manufacturers. As well as reducing landfill waste, this also means that the vibrant patchwork-style colourways of many Cotopaxi garments and packs are totally unique.
And that’s the thing about Cotopaxi. Their kit doesn’t just tick the good-guy boxes, it also looks great too – with a retro-inspired aesthetic that channels the best bits of the 80s. Whether it’s a daypack, a bum bag, a windbreaker or a zip-up fleece, their range is built to last and stacked with well-thought-out features for conscientious adventure travellers.
