Fanny packs are a thing of the past with their bulgy exteriors and undesirable waist lines. Cap-Sacs combine the functionality of the fanny pack with the everyday use of a baseball hat.
These brightly coloured head pieces have zippered pockets in the front, which can hold everyday items like keys, money and mobile phones. And they're cheap! Pick up your neon nylon fanny cap for only $13.
Implications - This fanny cap takes a traditional, well-known item and makes slight alterations to create something new. With so many products on the market, this is a great way to invent an item without wasting money on production costs. Customers are likely to take notice because of its familiarity, yet be intrigued due to its odd nature.
