FAQs

What makes the Nylon Metal fabric special?

The Nylon Metal fabric is an iconic Stone Island material known for its unique iridescent sheen and metallic appearance. In this version, it's further enhanced by using ECONYL® regenerated yarns, making it a more sustainable choice without compromising on aesthetics or performance.

Is this backpack suitable for carrying a laptop?

Yes, the backpack is designed for everyday urban use and can accommodate most standard laptop sizes within its main compartment. However, it does not feature a dedicated padded laptop sleeve, so using a separate laptop sleeve is recommended for extra protection.

How water-resistant is the backpack?

The backpack has a resin treatment on the inside for light water and wind resistance. It is suitable for protection against light rain but is not fully waterproof. It should not be submerged in water.

What does 'ECONYL® regenerated yarns' mean?

ECONYL® yarns are made from pre- and post-consumer nylon waste, such as fishing nets and old carpets. This waste is recycled through a complex process, regenerating the nylon into a fiber that has the same quality as virgin nylon, thus reducing environmental impact.

Can the shoulder straps be detached?

The shoulder straps are fixed and integrated into the backpack design for maximum durability and support. They are adjustable but not detachable.

What is the anti-drop finish for?

The anti-drop finish is a treatment applied to the fabric that helps repel liquids and dirt, contributing to the backpack's overall durability and ease of cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth and try again. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Fabric appears to be losing its water resistance

Consider applying a fabric-specific re-proofer spray designed for technical outerwear. Follow the product's instructions carefully and test on an inconspicuous area first.

Straps are uncomfortable or don't stay adjusted

Ensure the shoulder straps are adjusted evenly. Check that the adjustment buckles are fully engaged and not slipping. If persistent, consult the retailer for potential defects.

Color appears faded after exposure to sun

While the fabric is designed for durability, prolonged direct sunlight can impact color over time. Store the backpack away from direct sunlight when not in use and consider this a characteristic of extended use.
