<P> A fanny pack ( American English ) or bum bag ( British English ) is a small fabric pouch usually secured with a zipper and worn by use of a strap around the hips or waist . The American and British names derive from the fact that they are often worn with the pouch above the buttocks , for which `` fanny '' and `` bum '' are the slang terms in each country respectively , although they may also be worn with the pouch at the front . The British usage of `` fanny '' is vulgar slang for the vagina , so the name `` fanny pack '' is rarely used in Britain . </P>
