If you are searching for a practical but stylish fashion accessory, you should consider buying a designer belt bag. The belt bag, also commonly known as the fanny pack, bumbag, or waist bag, is a type of bag previously associated with tourists, but is now one of the most fashionable items out there. Belt bags were a hit in the ’90s, and it's taken two decades for the belt bag to make a comeback. 6, record 1, English, - fanny%20pack

A stun belt is a belt that is fastened around the subject's waist, leg, or arm that carries a battery and control pack, and contains features to stop the subject from unfastening or removing it. A remote-control signal is sent to tell the battery pack to give the subject an electric shock. Some models are activated by the subject's movement. 1, record 2, English, - stun%20belt
