Handmade Hand-Waxed Bum Bag
Hands free, belongings close, and nothing slowing you down. Wear it on your hips for classic comfort or swing it across your chest for a modern look - this handmade bum bag is hand-waxed after construction for weather resistance, made from one-of-a-kind reclaimed fabrics, and built to go wherever you go.
Why You'll Love It
Hand-waxed after construction for real weather resistance - unlike mass-produced bags made from pre-treated fabric, each bag is waxed by hand once it's finished, so the protection reaches every seam, every edge, and every stitch; proper British-weather ready
Two ways to wear, one adjustable strap - around the hips for classic everyday comfort, or across the chest to keep your things close and in your sightline; perfect for festivals, city days, and anywhere you want hands-free confidence
Made from fabrics with a past life - handcrafted in the UK from reclaimed curtain fabrics and preloved clothing, so it's as kind to the planet as it is distinctive on your hip
Three pockets, all with purpose - two zipped outer pockets for easy-access essentials and an inner zipped pocket for anything you want extra secure
Quick-release strap for all-day ease - adjustable to fit waists from 86–97 cm and effortless to put on, take off, and adjust on the go
Compact but genuinely roomy - at H 17 cm × W 36 cm × D 9 cm it holds far more than a typical bum bag without the bulk
Completely one of a kind - every fabric combination is unique; once it's gone, it won't be repeated

FAQs
What does hand-waxed after construction mean? Most weather-resistant bags are made from pre-waxed fabric - the treatment is applied to the material before the bag is cut and sewn, which means seams and edges are often left unprotected. Claire waxes each bag by hand after it's been fully constructed, so the wax reaches every seam, edge, and stitch. The result is more thorough protection and a finish that no production line can replicate.
Can I wear it across my chest as well as on my hips? Yes - the adjustable strap works for both. Hip wear is the classic, comfortable option for everyday use; chest wear keeps your belongings in your sightline and close to your body, which is particularly useful for travel, busy markets, or festivals where you want extra peace of mind.
Will the strap fit me? The adjustable strap fits waists from 86–97 cm comfortably. If you're outside this range or would like a custom strap length, drop Claire a message before ordering and she'll sort it for you.
How do I care for it? Spot-cleaning is recommended to preserve the wax finish and keep the reclaimed fabrics looking their best. Do not machine wash - this will strip the wax treatment. If the finish dulls over time, the bag can be re-waxed at home with canvas wax.
Is this really one of a kind? Yes, genuinely. Every bum bag is made from a unique combination of reclaimed curtain fabric and preloved clothing - no two are ever the same, and once that combination is used, it's gone for good.
How long will delivery take? Orders placed before 5pm are dispatched the next working day via Royal Mail Tracked 48 (2–3 days) or Tracked 24 (next day). Free standard delivery on orders over £120; £4.95 otherwise.
Can I return it if it's not right? Yes - free UK returns, subject to our Returns Policy. To start a return, get in touch via the website.
