Product Information
Full details
The Carhartt WIP Jake Backpack is designed for urban commuters and students who need a rugged, reliable carry solution for their daily essentials. Its standout benefit is the combination of a water-repellent finish and a reinforced Cordura base, ensuring your gear stays dry and protected regardless of the terrain or weather. While it offers excellent durability, users should note that at 18.4 litres, it is best suited for light-to-medium carry rather than heavy-duty travel or oversized cargo.

FAQs
Can this backpack fit a 15-inch laptop?
Yes, the padded internal sleeve is designed to accommodate most standard 15-inch laptop models.
Is the backpack machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the protective coatings and the integrity of the padding. We recommend spot cleaning only.
Does it have a water bottle pocket?
No, this model does not feature external side pockets for water bottles.
What is the primary material used?
The main body is constructed from durable polyester with a reinforced Cordura base.
Is the backpack waterproof?
It is water-repellent, which helps shield contents from light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof.
What are the dimensions of the bag?
The backpack measures 41.5 x 29 x 15.5 cm.
Troubleshooting
The zip-fastened pocket is sticking.
Check for fabric caught in the teeth and ensure the bag is not overpacked, which can cause tension on the zipper track.
Water is soaking into the fabric during heavy rain.
The fabric is water-repellent, not waterproof. Consider using a dedicated rain cover if you frequently commute in severe weather.
Shoulder straps feel uncomfortable.
Ensure both straps are adjusted to the same length to distribute weight evenly across both shoulders.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The backpack does not require assembly. Simply adjust the shoulder straps to your preferred height for a centered fit on your back. For compatibility, the interior sleeve can comfortably accommodate most ultrabook laptops up to 15 inches.
Care Instructions:
- Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove surface dirt.
- Avoid machine washing, as it may degrade the water-repellent finish and the padding structure.
- Allow the bag to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can fade the fabric over time.
