FAQs

What age group is the Kipling Jet 12 designed for?

This backpack is specifically designed for kids and young adventurers, perfect for carrying their own supplies.

Is the backpack waterproof?

The fabric is stain- and water-resistant, meaning it offers good protection against light rain, splashes, and minor spills. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy downpours or submersion.

Does it come with a hydration bladder?

No, the Kipling Jet 12 is hydration-compatible, meaning it has a dedicated sleeve for a hydration bladder, but the bladder itself is sold separately.

What kind of items can my child carry in this backpack?

It's ideal for carrying essentials like snacks, a water bottle, a light jacket, small toys, or 'found treasures' from outdoor adventures. Its 'pint-sized' design means it's not suitable for large school books or very bulky items.

How do I clean the Kipling Jet 12?

For most dirt and stains, wipe the backpack with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh detergents or machine washing to preserve the fabric's integrity.

What material is the backpack made of?

The Kipling Jet 12 is made from durable nylon fabric, which contributes to its stain- and water-resistant properties and overall resilience.

Troubleshooting

Backpack feels uncomfortable for my child.

Ensure the shoulder straps are properly adjusted to fit your child's torso. The pack should sit high on their back, not sagging. Check that there isn't too much weight being carried for their size.

Contents inside the backpack are getting damp.

While the fabric is water-resistant, it's not fully waterproof. Ensure all zippers are fully closed during rain. For heavy downpours, consider using additional waterproof bags inside for sensitive items.

Can't fit all desired items into the backpack.

The Kipling Jet 12 is pint-sized. Prioritize essentials. Utilize the side and front stash pockets for smaller items like snacks and small toys to maximize main compartment space.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Address stains promptly. Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth for spot cleaning. Avoid vigorous scrubbing, which can damage the fabric. For stubborn stains, a specialized fabric cleaner for nylon might be needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Encourages independence by allowing children to carry their own supplies.
Made with durable, stain- and water-resistant fabric for longevity and protection.
Designed for active kids, promoting comfort and ease of movement.
Hydration-compatible feature supports active outdoor lifestyles.
Multiple pockets provide practical organization for small essentials.

Cons

Limited carrying capacity due to its 'pint-sized' design, not suitable for large items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with your Kipling Jet 12 is straightforward, ensuring your young adventurer is ready for their next journey.

Setup

Adjust Straps: Before first use, adjust the shoulder straps to ensure the pack sits comfortably and securely on your child's back. The bottom of the pack should rest around their lower back.
Load Essentials: Distribute weight evenly within the main compartment. Place heavier items closer to the back for better balance.
Hydration Bladder (Optional): If using a hydration bladder, insert it into the designated sleeve in the main compartment and thread the hose through the port (if available) for easy access.

Compatibility

Hydration Bladders: The main compartment is designed to be hydration-compatible. This means it has a sleeve to hold a standard hydration bladder (typically 1-2 liters, depending on dimensions), but the bladder itself is not included.
Snacks & Small Items: Front and side pockets are perfectly sized for standard snack bags, small toys, or collectible items.

Care

Cleaning: The nylon fabric is stain- and water-resistant. For most dirt and spills, simply wipe the bag with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: If the bag gets wet, allow it to air dry completely before storing to prevent mildew.
Storage: Store the backpack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure it is empty and clean.
