Osprey - Nylon

Spot clean with mild soap and cold water. Use a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh detergents. Always air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight.

The Nylon material itself offers water resistance, but it is not fully waterproof unless it has a specific waterproof coating or treatment. For heavy rain, consider using a separate rain cover.

It is not recommended to machine wash. Hand washing or spot cleaning is the preferred method to preserve the material's integrity and any special coatings.

Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to prevent UV damage and material degradation. Ensure it is clean and completely dry before storing.

With proper care and maintenance, Osprey Nylon products are designed for long-term durability and can last for many years of regular use.
