Full details

Crafted from RCS-certified recycled materials, this compact sling bag offers a secure, water-repellent solution for carrying small items like keys, cards, and phones; however, its slim 0.5L capacity means it is not suitable for tablets, water bottles, or larger personal electronics.

FAQs
Is the Vinga Baltimore machine washable?
No, it is recommended to spot-clean the bag with a damp cloth to maintain the integrity of the water-repellent finish.
Can this bag hold a standard tablet?
No, the 0.5L capacity is designed for small essentials like phones, wallets, and keys, not tablets.
Does it have RFID protection?
The product description does not specify RFID-blocking capabilities.
Is the fabric fully waterproof?
The material is water-repellent, which protects items against light rain, but it is not intended to be fully submerged or used in heavy downpours.
Can I switch the shoulder strap to the other side?
The strap is designed as a standard sling configuration; it is best worn in the intended orientation for maximum ergonomic comfort.
What does RCS-certified mean?
RCS (Recycled Claim Standard) certification verifies the recycled content in the product, ensuring the materials meet specific sustainability and production standards.
Troubleshooting
Buckle feels stuck or difficult to open
Clear any debris or grit from the buckle mechanism and ensure it is aligned correctly before pressing the release points.
Strap keeps slipping or changing length
Ensure the webbing is properly threaded through the adjuster; if the issue persists, ensure the tension lock is fully engaged.
Zipper feels stiff
Run a dry graphite pencil along the zipper teeth to act as a natural lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dust and surface debris. Avoid submerging the bag in water or using harsh chemical solvents.
- Storage: When not in use, store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving the bag in direct, intense sunlight for extended periods to prevent material fading.
- Compatibility: The bag is designed for modern, slim personal essentials. Do not overstuff the compartments, as the recycled fabric may stretch or put undue strain on the zipper tracks.
