Cleaning

Washing instructions


Step 1: Loosen all the straps

Loosen all straps, remove any detachable hip belts and wash the backpack in a bathtub or large sink.


Step 2: Hand wash

We recommend hand washing in lukewarm water using a soap-based detergent. Do not use fabric softener.


Step 3: Use a sponge

Rub the backpack carefully with a soft sponge and then rinse thoroughly.


Step 4: Dry 

Hang the backpack to dry in a well-ventilated space, or outdoors away from direct sunlight.

 

Miscellaneous:


Tip 1: 

We advise against using a washing machine and tumble dryer as parts of the backpack may come loose or catch and destroy both the appliance and the product.


Tip 2: 

Most products can be re-waterproofed with spray-on waterproofing.


Tip 3: 

Make sure that all of the metal parts of the product are thoroughly dry before storage to avoid corrosion.


Tip 4: 

For long-term storage, keep the backpack in a cool, dry space.
