FAQs
What material is the backpack made from?
The backpack is primarily made from 85% Nylon and 15% Polyester, featuring ultra-durable ripstop nylon material.
Is this backpack suitable for carrying a laptop?
Yes, the main compartment can accommodate most laptops up to 15 inches. It's recommended to check specific laptop dimensions against the backpack's internal space.
How do I clean the UA Explor Backpack 63?
Spot clean only with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing. Allow the backpack to air dry completely.
What does 'UA Storm technology' mean?
UA Storm technology is a water-resistant coating applied to the fabric, designed to repel rain and snow, keeping your belongings dry in wet weather conditions.
Can I attach extra gear to the outside of the backpack?
Yes, the backpack has dual side stretch-mesh compression pockets for items like water bottles and a trekking pole attachment.
What is the benefit of the UA Suspension Straps?
The UA Suspension Straps are designed to evenly distribute weight and absorb shock, helping to keep the bag in place and lessen the perceived load on your shoulders and back.
Are the hip belt pockets large enough for a smartphone?
The hip belt pockets are designed to be large enough to carry a phone and other small trail essentials. Specific phone sizes may vary, but most standard smartphones should fit.
Troubleshooting
Backpack feels uncomfortable or shifts during wear
Adjust the shoulder straps, sternum strap, and hip belt for a secure and balanced fit. Ensure heavier items are packed closer to your back.
Water is seeping into the main compartment
While UA Storm technology is water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof. Check that all zippers are fully closed. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, consider using a dry bag inside for sensitive items. Reapply a water-repellent finish if the original coating has worn off.
Side pockets are not holding water bottles securely
Use the compression straps on the side pockets, if available, to secure the water bottle. Ensure the bottle is placed deep within the pocket before engaging compression.
Zipper is difficult to open or close
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. If the zipper is stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil to the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This backpack requires minimal setup. Adjust the shoulder straps, sternum strap, and hip belt for a snug and comfortable fit. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use. Load heavier items closer to the back panel for better weight distribution.
Compatibility:
- The main compartment is suitable for most laptops up to 15 inches, though exact dimensions may vary.
- Side stretch-mesh pockets are designed to fit standard water bottles (e.g., 1-liter Nalgene) and smaller items.
- Hip belt pockets are sized to fit most modern smartphones and trail essentials like energy bars or a small multi-tool.
- Trekking pole attachment is standard.
Care:
- Cleaning: Spot clean only with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash.
- Drying: Air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure the backpack is dry before long-term storage to prevent mildew.
- Water Resistance: The UA Storm water-repellent finish may diminish over time with heavy use. Reapply a fabric waterproofer specifically designed for synthetic materials if needed, following product instructions.
