FAQs
Is the Lacoste Ossian Backpack waterproof?
The leather material provides some natural resistance to light moisture, but it is not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray if you frequently commute in wet weather.
Can this backpack fit a 15-inch laptop?
The Ossian model is designed with a sleek, slim profile. It is best suited for tablets or 13-inch laptops rather than bulky 15-inch machines.
How do I maintain the leather material?
Keep the backpack clean with a dry cloth and use leather-specific conditioner every few months to prevent the leather from drying out.
Is this backpack suitable for travel?
It serves excellently as a personal carry-on item for flights, offering enough space for travel documents, a tablet, and headphones.
Does it have a dedicated water bottle pocket?
The minimalist design of this bag prioritizes aesthetic over external pockets; it does not feature a dedicated external water bottle sleeve.
Troubleshooting
Surface scuffs on leather
Use a high-quality leather cream or conditioner to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the material's sheen.
Difficulty with zippers
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track; if the movement is stiff, apply a small amount of clear beeswax or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a premium leather item, initial care is essential to maintain the finish. Keep the backpack away from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or moisture to prevent leather cracking or staining. For storage, use a dust cover or keep the bag in a dry, cool environment when not in use. To clean, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the exterior; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or detergents. Periodically applying a leather conditioner will keep the material supple and maintain its deep black luster.
