FAQs
Does this bag fit a 15-inch laptop?
The laptop sleeve is specifically designed for 13 to 14-inch laptops. A 15-inch laptop may not fit properly within the padded sleeve.
Is this duffle machine washable?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash this bag, especially due to the leather accents. Spot cleaning is the safest method.
Is the material actually waterproof?
The bag features a waterproof zipper, and the fabric is durable, but the bag itself is not rated as submersible or fully waterproof.
Can I use this as a personal item on an airplane?
It depends on the airline. It is generally suitable as a carry-on, but you should check your airline's specific size dimensions for personal items.
Does it come with a shoulder strap?
This specific model features low-profile handles; please check your included accessories to see if a removable shoulder strap was included in your specific kit.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close
Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or rub a graphite pencil lead along the teeth to help the zipper slide smoothly.
Bag appears dusty after storage
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris, then wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Herschel Novel Carry On Duffle in optimal condition, avoid overloading the main compartment, as this can stress the waterproof zippers over time. The bag is highly compatible with standard overhead bins on aircraft, meeting most carry-on size requirements. For care, avoid machine washing the leather accents. Instead, spot clean the recycled exterior fabric with a soft damp cloth and mild soap. If the leather accents become dusty, use a dry microfiber cloth to buff them clean. Do not submerge the bag in water, as this may compromise the material structure.
