FAQs
What is the capacity of the backpack?
The product description does not specify an exact volume in liters, but it is described as an 'Everyday 24L Backpack' in its sibling variants. The dimensions for the laptop sleeve are suitable for most computers up to 15 inches.
Is the laptop sleeve fully removable?
The description indicates an 'external access to padded, fleece-lined laptop sleeve,' suggesting it is integrated into the backpack's design and not intended for removal.
Can this backpack be used for hiking?
While it offers comfort features like padded straps and a back panel, it is primarily designed for everyday use, commuting, and travel. For strenuous hiking, a pack with more specialized features might be preferable.
What materials is the backpack made from?
The material is listed as 'Fleece' in the product attributes. This likely refers to the lining of the laptop sleeve and potentially other interior or exterior accents.
How do I attach extra gear using the lash points?
The lash points are loops or D-rings on the exterior of the backpack designed to secure items using carabiners, bungee cords, or straps (not included).
Can the sternum strap be detached?
The product description does not specify if the sternum strap is detachable. Typically, sternum straps on backpacks of this type are adjustable but permanently attached for stability.
Is the backpack water-resistant?
The product information does not explicitly state water-resistance. It is recommended to protect the backpack and its contents from heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel uncomfortable or slip
Adjust the shoulder straps for a snug fit. Ensure the sternum strap is fastened and adjusted correctly to distribute weight evenly.
Laptop does not fit in the sleeve
Verify that your laptop's dimensions do not exceed 15 inches. If it's slightly over, consider alternative storage within the main compartment if it fits safely.
Exterior shows dirt or marks
Wipe down the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry.
Water bottle pockets are too tight
Gently stretch the elasticized pockets if needed, or try different sized water bottles. Ensure the main compartment is not overstuffed, which can impact external pocket fit.
