Water ingress despite water-resistant material

The material is water-resistant, not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Ensure zippers are fully closed to minimize water entry points. Allow the backpack to dry thoroughly if it becomes wet.

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