Some days you want the whole backpack. Some days you want your phone, your wallet, your keys, and nothing weighing you down. The Kangaroo Backpack & Detachable Baby covers both. Buy the Baby hip bag on its own, or get the Combo: the full Kangaroo Backpack with the Baby attached.

The Baby hip bag. Handcrafted from waxed canvas, a renewable, water-resistant material that wears in beautifully. Four pockets in four layers, plus elastic loops, keep your essentials organized. Wear it as a hip bag or a crossbody shoulder bag, or attach it to the Kangaroo Backpack. It comes in Extra-Compact and Compact, in Black, Dark Blue, and Dark Green.

The Kangaroo Backpack. Made from water-resistant 1080D nylon, it wears as a backpack or a sling. The main pocket fits a 16-inch laptop. A rear secure pocket, lined with Velcro for an optional holster, opens from either side for right- or left-hand reach, with zippers outside and magnetic closures inside. The Combo comes in Black on Black, Black on Black with Red Trim, and Grey on Grey.

The same weight-distribution engineering as every Ukoala carries over to both pieces, so each sits close to your body and won't bounce or shift while you move. Perfect for travel, concerts, sporting events, festivals, and any day you want your essentials close and your hands free.

8 Ways to Wear

One bag. Endless versatility, all from the original U-shaped strap.

Drop Leg

Secure thigh carry for hands-free movement on the trail, motorcycle, or convention floor.

  1. 01Run the U-strap around your waist and clip the belt buckle snug at the hip.
  2. 02Drop the lower strap down the outside of your thigh and wrap the leg strap around it.
  3. 03Cinch the leg strap so the bag rides flat against your thigh and stays put when you move.

Best of both worlds: hands-free, yet still so accessible and on my body at all times.

The ‘We Love It’ column should be renamed ‘Obsessed With It.’

So comfortable and unobtrusive that I almost forgot it was there.
