Product Information
Full details
For adults on the move, the JanSport Driver 8 Rolling Backpack offers the versatility of a backpack and the ease of a roller, with a key benefit of easily converting between modes. A potential caveat is its 2kg weight when empty. This backpack is constructed from 100% recycled 600 denier polyester and features two large main compartments, a padded 15-inch laptop sleeve, a front organizer pocket, and a side water bottle pocket. It transforms into a roller using tuck-away shoulder straps, a two-stage retractable handle, and 80mm skate wheels.

Troubleshooting
Wheels are not rolling smoothly
Check for any debris or obstructions caught in the wheels. Clean the wheels with a damp cloth. If the issue persists, the wheels may require professional inspection.
Retractable handle is stuck
Ensure the release button is fully pressed when attempting to adjust the handle. Check for any obstructions preventing movement. Do not force the handle; seek assistance if it remains jammed.
Shoulder straps are difficult to tuck away
Make sure the straps are properly aligned before sliding them into the pocket. Ensure no items inside the backpack are obstructing the pocket. Gently work the straps in until they are fully concealed.
Zipper jams
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Use a graphite pencil or wax to lubricate the zipper teeth. Avoid yanking forcefully, which can damage the zipper.
