Plus size fanny packs can be hard to find, but the Ready to Stare team are pros at finding the best belt bags for fat babes. Alysse travels often, and fanny packs are the perfect travel bags. You can fit everything you need inside and have it strapped to your body while you galavant around town on a travel adventure.
These bags are also great for concerts, events, hiking, or anything where having a full size bag seems like an inconvenience. They are also super trendy right now, especially if worn in a crossbody style.

1. Shop Joy Toast Bag Straps
A great way to transform any fanny pack that you love is to buy a new bag strap! These Shop Joy Toast bag straps are 2″ thick and can adjust up to 76.5″ which is so amazing! You can add these to any fanny pack and crossbody bag, but they are also a great addition to laptop bags, duffle bags, or any bag that you love with a removable strap! These come in the “joy” design, a classic black and white checker pattern, and a red and pink wavy checkered pattern.
2. Torrid Plus Size Fanny Pack
Torrid almost always has at least one belt bag in their accessories department. I love this one because it’s classic black and will pair well with anything. No matter your personal style, this bag is sure to be a closet staple!
3. Brown Quilted Plus Size Belt Bag
Here’s a brown option for my warm neutral babes. I love how big this bag is and how skinny the strap is. This faux leather is a more “dressy” option that can be paired with dresses like this look Alysse has on! It’s the perfect mix of casual and dressy and is like strapping a little clutch to your body.
4. Sherpa Plus Size Fanny Pack
This bag is from Lane Bryant, so you know that it is made for plus size babes with an extended strap! This bag is perfect for winter and will look so cool paired with athleisure or streetwear style looks.
5. Rainbow Fanny Pack
This is the perfect festival fanny pack! Picture this with a rainbow or neon festival look. Amazing! It has two pockets and an adjustable strap up to 48″. There is also a strap extender available! We love to see it. If you’re looking for a statement bag, look no further.
6. Black Croc Belt Bag
This bag is for anyone with an edgy style. I love that it’s not just black. The texture really takes it to the next level and makes it a more special accessory. If you’re a silver jewelry lover, the silver metal details on this bag will pair perfectly.
7. Watermelon Fanny Pack
We love a small business option and this Watermelon style is SO cute. The chain allows this to fit from an XS-5X.
8. Rhinestone Fanny Pack
This wouldn’t be a Ready to Stare round up without a rhinestone option now would it?! This diamante option looks like it has plenty of room for even the largest iPhone (looking at you ProMax!)
9. Cheap Plus Size Fanny Pack
We love a budget-friendly option. Don’t miss out on this cheap plus size fanny pack from Rainbow. The strap adjusts up to 48 inches.
10. Black Belt Bag
Mostly, belt bag and fanny pack are used interchangeably but this option really looks exactly how I picture a belt bag would look!
11. Shaggy Fanny Pack
I have a friend with a 50 inch waist who absolutely swears by their Shag Bagg purchased at The Plus Bus in Los Angeles. This plus size fanny pack features waterproof lining so get ready to store your drinks and freezer packs with ease.
12. Basic Black Fanny Pack
Sometimes, you just need the most functional option and that’s this basic black fanny pack. With three total storage pockets and a strap that adjusts up to 60 inches, you’ll be the hottest Dad on the trails in these one.
13. Olive Fanny Pack
If neutrals are more your style, this olive plus size fanny pack won’t break the bank! Plus, that big gold zipper is chic as heck!
14. Herschel Hip Pack
My friend with the 50 inch waist also swears by the Herschel Hip Pack. They come in a variety of sizes and colors depending on just how much you want to fit in your fanny.
15. Convertible Fanny Pack
What I love about this plus size fanny pack is that it can easily convert to a crossbody bag with an adjustable strap up to 54 inches. Plus, this color option is giving total safari vibes.
And when in doubt, add an extender!
Much like a seatbelt extender on a plane, we love anything that makes something fit just a little more roomy. With this fanny pack extender, you can make any buckle closure fit up to an additional 20.75″!
