FAQs

Does the Bobby Air fit a 16-inch MacBook Pro?

Yes, the padded compartment is specifically designed to accommodate laptops up to 16 inches securely.

Is the backpack completely waterproof?

The Bobby Air features a water-repellent PU coating which is excellent for light rain, but it is not considered fully waterproof or submersible.

What is Aware Tracer technology?

It is a physical tracer and blockchain technology that verifies the recycled content and sustainable production process of the backpack materials.

Can I wash the bag in a machine?

No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity, zippers, and water-repellent coating. Spot cleaning is recommended.

Does this bag come in other colors?

Yes, the Bobby Air is available in various colorways, including Grey and Blue, to suit different style preferences.

Is this backpack suitable for air travel?

Yes, its 15L size meets most international carry-on requirements, making it an excellent 'personal item' for flights.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close

Ensure no internal lining or loose threads are caught in the zipper teeth. Wipe the zipper track with a dry cloth to clear away dust.

Exterior looking dull or dirty

Use a microfiber cloth dampened with lukewarm water to gently wipe the exterior. Avoid abrasive sponges.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and comfortable for daily urban wear
  • Dedicated large-format 16-inch laptop compartment
  • High-quality water-repellent finish
  • Transparent supply chain with Aware Tracer technology
  • Clean, minimalist aesthetic suitable for professional settings

Cons

  • 15L capacity may be too small for gym gear or travel
  • Limited external attachment points
  • Main compartment zippers require specific orientation for security access

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Bobby Air in optimal condition, treat the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and urban pollutants. Do not submerge the bag in water or use harsh chemical detergents, as these may compromise the protective PU coating and the water-repellent properties of the nylon.

When loading your gear, place your heaviest items—such as your laptop—in the dedicated sleeve closest to the back panel to maintain a balanced center of gravity. Adjust the shoulder straps while the bag is on your back until the top of the pack sits comfortably against your upper back; this ensures the weight is distributed evenly across your shoulders rather than pulling on your lower back. If you encounter any sticky zipper performance, ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and consider a non-greasy silicone lubricant if necessary.
