Rearrange the contents to distribute the weight evenly. Heavier items should be placed closer to your back.

Water is leaking into the main compartment.

Ensure the bag is properly closed and that the waterproof features are intact. Check the rain cover and use it in heavy rain.

Straps are slipping.

Tighten the straps and buckles. Consider using a safety pin to secure the straps if they continue to slip.
