It's the de rigueur physique made famous by Leonardo DeCaprio and Vince Vaughn - a slim but more cuddly frame that often goes hand-in-hand with fatherhood. 

However, for some men, acquiring a paunch isn't quite as simple as ordering an extra pint down the pub. 

Fortunately, designer Albert Pukies, has set about crafting a bag that offers a very impressive alternative; a bum bag (or fanny pack in the US) that perfectly mimics a paunch, down to hair, belly button and skintone. 

While the bag is not yet in production, the idea is most definitely out there and surely it's only a matter of time before big name bag producers come calling.
