Troubleshooting

Bag feels uncomfortable or unstable

Readjust the Women's Tech Strap and the Adjustable Women's belt. Ensure the load is balanced within the core unit and the backpack.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Clean any debris from the zipper teeth. Apply a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.

External straps do not feel secure

Ensure all straps are threaded correctly through their respective buckles and pulled taut. Check that the items attached are not overloading the strap capacity.

Core unit does not fit camera gear properly

Adjust the internal dividers within the core unit to create custom compartments that fit your specific camera and lens configuration.
