Bad news from my travels...

Y'all, I hate to break it to you but all the trendy people here in Paris are wearing Fanny Packs again. So, in 3-5 years (depending on your proximity to the coast) y'all are going to start seeing them around the streets on the good ol US of A.

You can also get ahead of the curve and start buying white T-shirt's with "Levis" and the logo on the chest.

You're welcome.

They're not carrying touristy crap, nor do they look as lost here as I am.

Though there have been a couple of small outbreaks.

Luckily, man-pri's seem to have fallen out of fashion.

The white t-shirts with Levi's logo's have been around forever.

I just want to know if I'm finally ahead of the fashion curve.
