Setup, Compatibility & Care
To expand the bag, locate the primary zippers surrounding the center compartment and unzip the gusseted section to reveal the additional depth. For cleaning, wipe the nylon exterior with a damp, soft cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals to maintain the fabric's integrity. When storing, ensure the duffel is completely dry and kept in a cool, dark place to prevent material degradation. The bag is compatible with standard Tumi luggage tags and should be checked for wear on the zippers after heavy travel cycles.
