Fanny pack, hip pack, shoulder bag, sling bag, waist bag or the Czech “ledvinka” - this accessory has so many names. Here since the late 80’s, they reached their peak of popularity in the 90’s, after which they were replaced by other trends - until 2018, when fanny packs saw a huge resurgence in popularity.

When Ehrhardt Koch founded the New Era brand back in 1920, he sought to innovate the hat industry. But I think he didn’t imagine he’d be the start of a global fashion phenomenon and a must-have accessory in every wardrobe - the baseball cap. You don’t have to be a hip-hop fan, play baseball or skate to enjoy it. We all love baseball caps, no cap. It’s the most common type of hat you see on a daily basis. Boys, girls, young and old wear them, and even pets on social media. But choosing one with the right sh
