FAQs
Is this bag waterproof?
The bag is made from polyester, which is water-resistant, but it is not fully waterproof and should be kept away from heavy downpours.
Can I fit a 15-inch laptop in this bag?
No, the bag is designed for smaller devices and items; a 15-inch laptop will likely not fit within the 40 x 30cm dimensions.
How do I adjust the shoulder strap?
Use the sliding plastic buckle located on the shoulder strap to lengthen or shorten the webbing to your preferred fit.
Is the material machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash or spot clean only to preserve the shape and durability of the polyester material.
How much weight can the bag carry?
While the bag is durable, it is best suited for daily essentials; we recommend keeping the load under 3-4kg for maximum comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoulder strap slipping during wear
Ensure the webbing is properly threaded through the adjustment slider and double-check that the tension lock is engaged.
Surface dirt accumulation
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt before wiping the surface with a damp cloth.
Zipper sticking on the mesh pocket
Check the track for any trapped fabric fibers and gently clear them before lubricating the track with a dry graphite pencil tip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your bag, simply adjust the shoulder strap slider until the bag sits at your desired height—typically against the small of your back for the most ergonomic fit. The polyester material is low-maintenance; to care for your bag, spot-clean any surface stains with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can compromise the structural integrity of the fabric and the finish of the internal mesh pocket. Ensure the bag is completely air-dried in a shaded area away from direct heat sources to prevent material fading or distortion.
