Troubleshooting

Bag not completely waterproof after exposure to heavy rain.

Ensure the main zipper is fully closed and the coated zipper is handled with care. Check for any potential punctures or damage to the PU fabric. For persistent issues, consider using additional waterproof pouches for highly sensitive items.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for zippers. Avoid forcing the zipper, which can cause damage.

Webbing handles feel uncomfortable after prolonged carrying.

Utilize the included comfort sleeve for added padding. Alternatively, use the detachable shoulder strap for weight distribution during longer periods of carrying.

Material develops minor scuffs or marks.

Minor scuffs can often be gently wiped away with a damp cloth. For more persistent marks, consult the care instructions to avoid damaging the waterproof coating.
