Just when you forgot all about the the dad-bod trend, it's back again—now in bag form. Known as the "Dadbag," this pack just might be the most ridiculous thing you’ll see on the internet today.

The Dadbag resembles an actual dad bod belly, featuring a pudgy sack and a print of a hairy stomach that’s just a little too realistic. Similar to a fanny pack, it’s meant to be worn across your stomach to make it look like your gut is hanging out from underneath your shirt.

"I made the dadbag because I’m desperate to have dad bod but I’m also very concerned about the health risks associated with it," the Dadbag creator Albert Pukies recently wrote, articulating a concern that no one on the planet has ever had. "The solution is quite simple, a bumbag with a proper dad belly printed on it. Now I can put on a dad bod whenever I feel like it and even store my valuables in it.”

Now let's be clear: This could turn out to all be completely fake. You can't even buy one right this very second even if you wanted to since Pukie needs to find production partners. (We reached out to the email listed at thedadbag.com asking if the bag is real, and have yet to hear back.)

But if it's legit, the bag has six designs you can choose from. Each of the designs have different skin tones and belly hair styles so that buyers can get one that matches their own bodies. It even has a pocket to store your stuff in, so this thing could be foolproof if it's as realistic as it looks. Whether the Dadbag is real or not, its existence proves that dad bods are still popular.

And if you really want a dad bod, we recommend you skip the accessory and simply try this workout and redefine the dad bod.
