Product Information
Full details
The Highlander Hauler 65L is designed for outdoor enthusiasts, gear-heavy adventurers, and expedition travelers who require a robust, weather-resistant storage solution. Its primary benefit is its extreme durability and versatile carrying configuration, making it suitable for rough transit environments, though its 1.7kg weight means it is not designed for ultralight travel applications.

FAQs
Is the Highlander Hauler fully waterproof?
It is water-resistant. The tarpaulin material and waterproof zippers provide excellent protection against rain and spray, but it is not intended to be submerged in water.
Can I check this bag on an airplane?
Yes, its 65L capacity and durable design make it an excellent choice for checked luggage. Always ensure zippers are locked using a TSA-approved lock.
How much does the empty bag weigh?
The bag weighs approximately 1.7kg.
Are the rucksack straps removable?
Yes, the padded rucksack-style straps are fully detachable, allowing for a cleaner profile when you prefer using the carry handles.
What are the dimensions of the bag?
The bag measures 60 x 36 x 35 cm.
Can I lock the zippers?
Yes, the main compartment zippers are designed to be lockable to keep your belongings secure.
Troubleshooting
Waterproof zippers are difficult to slide
Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax to the teeth to ensure smooth operation.
Shoulder straps digging into shoulders
Ensure the bag is packed with heavy items centered and redistribute the weight; check that the padding is correctly positioned over the shoulders.
Bag exterior has light scuffing
The tarpaulin material is designed for rugged use. Clean scuffs with a damp microfiber cloth to restore the exterior appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the longevity of your Highlander Hauler, follow these guidelines:
- Setup: Before your first trip, attach the rucksack straps to the D-ring attachment points. Adjust the length to fit your torso for comfortable weight distribution.
- Loading: Place heavier items at the bottom of the main compartment and use the internal compression straps to prevent gear from shifting during movement.
- Care: Clean the tarpaulin shell with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemical detergents. Allow the bag to air dry completely before storage to prevent mold or mildew.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as prolonged UV exposure can degrade the water-resistant coating of the fabric over time.
