Has anyone tried wearing a FlipBelt for carrying their bits and bobs found the parks so you dont have to carry a bag ? would really like to know if anyone has any experience with them. Many thanks

I haven't used one before, but I found a $5 version at Target (when you first walk in where all the $1 stuff is) and intend to try it out this trip. I tried putting some various things in it and it holds more than I would have thought (cell phone, portable cell charger, small card holder, etc.). We aren't headed there till October, but I'm happy to report back on how it goes!

Hey yeah that would be great, im from the uk so cant get the target version, but it seems like a no brainer really, for wallet phone hotel keys etc. hope it works out well!!

I used one kind of like that for our Universal days because they will allow you to wear these on the rides that you otherwise have to put your stuff in a locker and it kept me from having to take that extra step and not have to carry a back pack around the park. It was wonderful and also did not make me look like I was wearing those traditional "fanny packs" lol!

Not disney related, but my daughter carries her insulin pump in one periodically when she doesn't have pockets and doesn't want to carry a purse - and they are great. They fit her pump, her continuous glucose monitor, phone, some emergency sugar (usually starbursts) and other stuff.

I wear a FlipBelt at the gym and thought I'd try it at WDW. The open pockets held everything, but I did think I'd be paranoid about my credit card falling out with getting in and out of the rides, etc. I just purchased a Spibelt which is the same concept, but with a zippered pocket. It's a stretchy, flat belt and I ordered the large pocket one and it holds my iPhone 6, chap stick, ID and credit card perfectly. I could probably fit one more thing in it. It's small and flat enough where I could wear it under my shirt like the FlipBelt.

The one from target that I got has two zippered compartments, I didn't realize the flipbelt had no zippers...yeah that would make me nervous!

I wouldn't use one b/c I get too sweaty, and my flipbelt does, too. I hae to put my phone in a ziptop baggie since I don't have waterproof case right now.

You put the belt on with the small openings facing out. Put items in. Flip it so the openings now are against you. That's how it's secure.


I also wouldn't use it for a park because I have no interest in showing people my belly every time I need something from it.

I wear one with my insulin pump in it everyday. When I exercise I put my phone, credit cards, license and keys in it along with my insulin pump. I have had no problems with things falling out and it fits snug around me so it is comfortable. Also most people have no idea I am wearing it.
