Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Using your Base Camp Duffel is straightforward. To utilize the backpack straps, simply attach them to the designated D-rings on the duffel. Adjust the strap length to ensure a comfortable and ergonomic fit, minimizing twisting on your shoulders.
Compatibility
With a volume of 31 liters and dimensions of 27.94 cm x 45.72 cm x 27.92 cm, the XS Base Camp Duffel is often suitable for carry-on luggage on most airlines, but always check with your specific airline's size restrictions before travel. It's an excellent companion for car trips, short flights, train travel, or as a gear bag for specific activities.
Care
- Cleaning: The durable, water-resistant material can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, a soft brush can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Allow the duffel to air dry completely, especially after being exposed to moisture, to prevent mildew. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: When not in use, store your duffel in a cool, dry place. The mesh-bag packaging can be used to keep it clean and protected.
- Maintenance: Periodically check zippers and straps for wear and tear. Ensure the DWR finish is maintained by cleaning and re-treating if necessary (follow instructions for DWR care products).
