Troubleshooting

Strap detachment

Ensure the clasp of the detachable shoulder strap is fully engaged with the D-ring. If the clasp seems damaged, contact customer support.

Zipper snagging

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Applying a small amount of clear wax or lip balm to the zipper teeth can help smooth its movement. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Bag losing shape

Ensure the bag is not overstuffed. Maintain its shape by placing delicate items in a way that supports the structure. Store it upright when not in use.

Scuff marks on polyester

Light scuff marks can often be removed with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, try a mild soap solution on a soft cloth, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth.

Compatibility:

This tote is designed to hold standard everyday items such as smartphones, wallets, keys, cosmetics, and small personal accessories. Its interior slip pockets are ideal for organizing items like credit cards or business cards.

Care Instructions:

Material: The tote is made from 100% polyester for both the outer shell and inner lining.
Cleaning: To clean, use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the exterior and interior. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric and hardware.
Storage: When not in use, store the tote in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original dust bag or a soft cloth bag to protect it from dust and potential scratches. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
Hardware: Polish the gold-tone metal hardware with a dry, soft cloth if it loses its shine.
