Description

In town or on trail: you decide. 

Say what you like, Bum Bags are back and this time they are here to stay.

The Roo is our go everywhere bum bag, designed to be used either on its own, or as a compliment to your backpack when out hiking. In town or on trail: you decide. 

The Roo enables you to have everything you need, right there at your fingertips.

We use offcuts of fabric from our backpack production to make these, so each random Roo is completely unique.

Available in two size and colour options, The Roo is ready for action.

Zero Waste
These are hugely popular, and for good reason!

Multicoloured (Random) - exclusively sewn from offcuts and are sold as a lucky dip (no colour requests, please). The panels will likely be made out of multiple fabrics and colours, and our aim is to create a unique piece that minimises waste created from our other products.

Black - The Roo for any occasion - tactical, classy, wears well with a suit.

Made from a mix of fabrics (mostly EPX200 and VX21), with a 20mm soft feel nylon webbing strap, a Lycra powernet stretch pocket and YKK 5mm aquaguard zip.

The Roo's waistband circumference can be adjusted up to 120cm / 48".

Good little bag with one annoyance

I haven't used this yet but the design seems good. It's only marginally bigger than an REI fanny pack I have but the design provides much more usable space. I'm excited to use it on the trail with my ULA pack. The colors are okay. I could think of worse combos but not a fan of the hot pink next to red and then there's a hint of a red, white, blue theme going. But overall the colors are fine, not deal breakers. The annoying thing is that the waist strap has no keeper, or whatever you call the little elastic band most things like this have to contain the extra strap. The strap is so long I have a tail that dangles 18" and nothing to keep it out of the way. I guess I'll trim it but it'll still dangle to some degree. That's an important design feature that's missing.

Great little edc bag

I've got this in Large-size along with the Mo last year. It's a good size as an edc during warmer periods to have my small camera, wallet and accesories needed, usually even a small 100g windjacket in it. Also good when hiking as it can be used in camp and during hiking i sue it for the camera and snacks, phone and those handy to reach stuff. Quality is good and as always Atompacks UK was super helpful and great to do business with.

Delighted!

Received this as a birthday present and I’m so pleased (got lucky with great colourways). Trying it out today as I continue walking the Ulster way and already it’s perfect for my phone, snacks, fits perfectly under the waist belt of my pack. Thank you!

Love my new Roo!

This was a gift and it’s going to be perfect when I hike trails. Amazing colourways and I love how spacious it is. Overjoyed to own one. Thanks for a great product.

Massive and way better than hipbelt pockets

Just got back from a 110 miler and this was my fave bit of kit. The standard size is massive and fits so much in (for me that's 4 different snacks, sunglasses, suncream, lipbalm, pocket knife, wallet, phone, and still with a ton of space for even more junk). When I was hiking around my local area this summer I could get a 500ml water bottle in there. I tend to keep my phone in the outer stretchy pocket for easy access when taking pictures and never felt it was not secure there. I find this way better than hipbelt pockets; it's just so much more convenient. I am on the skinny side, so will have to cut off the long strap at some point
I am a little disappointed in the colours (someone ordered a very ugly brown bag at some point :D ), but that is the gamble with lucky dip. I may gift this one to my dad and spin the wheel again!
