FAQs
Is the backpack completely waterproof?
No, the Kipling Seoul Backpack is made from a water-repellent 100% Polyamide fabric, which means it can resist light rain and splashes. However, it is not designed to be fully submerged or withstand heavy downpours for extended periods.
What is the capacity of the main compartment?
The backpack has a total volume of 27 liters, distributed across its various compartments, with the main compartment being quite spacious for larger items.
Can I wash the Kipling monkey keyring?
The Kipling monkey keyring can typically be wiped clean with a damp cloth if it gets dirty. It's generally best to remove it before cleaning the backpack itself to avoid any potential damage.
What are the overall dimensions of the backpack?
The backpack measures approximately 44 cm (Height) x 35 cm (Width) x 20.5 cm (Depth).
Is this backpack suitable for travel as a carry-on?
With dimensions of 44 x 35 x 20.5 cm and a 27L volume, it generally meets the carry-on size requirements for most airlines. However, always check with your specific airline's current regulations before travel.
What kind of material is the backpack made from?
The Kipling Seoul Backpack is made from 100% Polyamide, a durable and lightweight synthetic fabric known for its water-repellent properties.
Troubleshooting
Laptop compartment feels too snug for my 15-inch laptop.
Verify your laptop's exact dimensions. While designed for 15-inch, laptop models can vary slightly. Ensure there are no bulky peripherals (like extended batteries or thick cases) causing the snug fit. Gently guide the laptop in, making sure it aligns with the sleeve's padding.
Shoulder straps slip or feel uncomfortable after adjustment.
Ensure the straps are threaded correctly through their buckles and are fully tightened to your comfort. Check if the weight distribution inside the backpack is balanced; uneven loading can cause discomfort or strap slippage. If carrying very heavy loads, consider distributing items more evenly.
Zippers feel stiff or are catching.
Lightly rub a graphite pencil (standard lead pencil) along the zipper teeth. The graphite acts as a lubricant, which can help the zipper slide more smoothly. Avoid forcing a stubborn zipper, as this can cause damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The Kipling Seoul Backpack requires minimal setup. Upon receiving your backpack:
- Adjust Straps: Unpack the backpack and place it on your back. Use the adjustable buckles on the shoulder straps to lengthen or shorten them until the backpack rests comfortably against your back, with the bottom sitting just above your waist. Ensure both straps are adjusted evenly for balanced weight distribution.
- Familiarize with Pockets: Explore the various zipped compartments and internal organizers to understand their layout and plan how you'll store your items for optimal access.
Compatibility
- Laptop: The dedicated padded sleeve is designed to securely fit a 15-inch laptop. While some slightly smaller laptops will fit, larger ones will not. Always check your laptop's dimensions against the internal sleeve's capacity (approximately 37cm H x 26cm W x 3cm D) for optimal fit.
- Everyday Use: Its 27L volume and numerous pockets are compatible with a wide range of daily needs, from academic supplies and work documents to travel essentials and leisure items.
Care
The Kipling Seoul Backpack is made from 100% Polyamide, a durable and water-repellent fabric. To keep your backpack in excellent condition:
- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt or stains, use a soft cloth dampened with cool water and a mild soap. Gently rub the affected area. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the backpack to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, or bleach the backpack, as this can damage the fabric and coatings.
- Deep Cleaning: If a more thorough cleaning is needed, hand wash the entire backpack in cool water with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.
- Storage: When not in use, store the backpack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
