Troubleshooting
Waistpack feels loose or slips during activity.
Re-adjust the Kriega signature alloy belt adjuster for a tighter fit. Ensure the strap ends are tucked away neatly to prevent snagging.

Ensure the YKK® water-resistant zips are fully closed. Check that the removable taped seam liner is correctly installed and dry before use.
Alloy belt adjuster is stiff.
Gently clean the adjuster mechanism with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary, ensuring it does not attract dirt.
