Troubleshooting
Main compartment zipper is stiff.
Gently clean the zipper track with a damp cloth and allow it to dry. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or beeswax to the teeth of the zipper.
Strap adjustment is difficult.
Ensure the strap is not twisted. Pull the strap firmly and evenly through the buckle mechanism. Check for any obstructions in the buckle.
Water seepage through the main compartment closure.
Ensure the roll-top is properly folded over itself at least 3-4 times before fastening the buckle securely. Check for any damage to the fabric around the closure.
Front compartment zipper is not closing completely.
Check for any fabric or debris caught in the zipper teeth. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
