Gbaoso Run the Mile You're In Black Fanny Pack

Elevate your daily essentials with the Black Fanny Pack featuring a kola nut design and the inspiring phrase "Run the Mile You're In." This unique accessory combines cultural depth, motivational energy, and practical design into one stylish piece. Ideal for casual outings, adventures, or making a bold statement, this fanny pack merges meaning with everyday convenience.

This piece comes from the Gbaoso Collection—"to run"—a line designed by Wealth Ndego and exclusive to Run Minnesota. The collection honors the strength, creativity, and unity of Minnesota’s running community.

This product includes the Gbaoso kola nut design. Native to West African regions, the kola nut (Cola Acuminata or Cola Nitida) is the seed of the kola fruit from the kola tree. While it holds cultural importance across many West African ethnic groups, in Igbo culture it is revered as “the king of all fruits” for its central role in social and religious traditions. In this collection, the kola nut is designed with four lobes (Oji ibe eno), also called Oji Udo na Ngozi — which translates to “kola nut of peace, harmony, and blessings.”
