FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the backpack?
The backpack dimensions are 43 cm (Height) x 29 cm (Width) x 18 cm (Depth).
What is the capacity of the backpack?
The backpack has a capacity of up to 30 litres.
Will my 15-inch laptop fit in the padded compartment?
The padded compartment is designed to accommodate most standard laptops and tablets. While specific dimensions aren't provided for the compartment itself, a 15-inch laptop should generally fit within the backpack's overall dimensions (43x29x18 cm).
How does the RFID protection work?
The RFID organizer is designed with materials that block RFID readers from scanning your credit cards, debit cards, and banking information, reducing vulnerability to identity theft.
Is the backpack suitable for international carry-on?
With dimensions of 43x29x18 cm and a 30L capacity, it is generally within typical carry-on size limits for most airlines, but it is always advisable to check with your specific airline before travel.
How do I clean the backpack?
Clean the backpack using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
What does 'water-resistant' mean for this backpack?
The fabric is treated with a durable water repellent (DWR) finish, meaning droplets will bead and roll off the fabric. It is ideal for light rain or limited exposure to rain but is not fully waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Backpack feels uncomfortable when worn.
Adjust the shoulder straps for a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure the weight is evenly distributed within the backpack.
Water is seeping through the fabric in heavy rain.
The backpack is designed for water resistance, not full waterproofing. For heavy rain, consider using a separate rain cover or storing sensitive items in waterproof pouches within the backpack.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of wax or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth and gently work the zipper back and forth.
Bottle holder is stretching excessively.
This is normal for elasticated mesh. Avoid overstuffing the bottle holder with items that are not bottles to maintain its shape and elasticity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The backpack requires no specific setup. It is ready to use straight out of the packaging. Simply adjust the shoulder straps for a comfortable fit.
Compatibility:
- Laptop Size: The padded laptop compartment is designed to accommodate most standard laptops and tablets. Specific dimensions are 43 (H) x 29 (W) x 18 (D) cm for the backpack itself, so ensure your device fits within these overall constraints if placing it loosely.
- Luggage: The trolley-fixed webbing is compatible with standard suitcase handles.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Clean the backpack using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Water Resistance: The durable water repellent (DWR) treatment will naturally decrease over time with use. To maintain water resistance, you may need to reapply a DWR treatment suitable for technical fabrics periodically. Consult specific product instructions for reapplication.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to preserve the fabric and any treatments.
