Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Vela is a soft-sided bag, setup involves balancing your gear to maintain its shape. Place heavier, flatter items like your laptop in the dedicated sleeve first to create a solid base. When packing clothing, use rolling techniques to maximize the 24L volume. To maintain the bag, spot-clean the polyester exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the protective inner linings and hardware. When not in use, the bag can be folded relatively flat for compact storage in a home closet or under a bed.
