The North Face Berkeley Lumbar Black/Mineral Gold

There's a relaxed, nostalgic quality to the Berkeley Lumbar that sets it apart from every sleek, technical fanny pack on the market — and that's entirely the point. The crinkly 400D recycled nylon face fabric gives this lumbar bag a distinctive vintage texture that looks effortlessly considered, whether you're navigating a city market, hiking a trail, or heading to a festival.

At just 180g and 4 litres, this is lightweight carry at its most liberating — enough space for the true essentials without any of the bulk that turns a bag into a burden. The main compartment handles the everyday carry trifecta of a mini water bottle, phone, and keys with room to spare, while the external secure-zip pocket keeps smaller items — cards, lip balm, earbuds — organised and immediately accessible without opening the main compartment.

The adjustable waist strap fits a genuine range of body sizes comfortably, and the back-panel padding ensures it sits against the body softly rather than pressing uncomfortably during longer wear. It's the kind of thoughtful ergonomic detail you notice most when you're wearing a bag all day and realise your back doesn't ache.

The non-PFC DWR finish handles light rain and moisture with ease — because the days you most want to travel light are often the days the weather is least predictable. Made from 400D recycled nylon throughout, the Berkeley Lumbar is as responsible in its construction as it is charming in its aesthetic.
