What does '2-in-1 Convertible' refer to?

This typically refers to the bag's ability to be worn in multiple ways, primarily as a crossbody or a sling, due to its adjustable strap system.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stuck

Gently try to pull the zipper tab. If it's caught on fabric, carefully dislodge the fabric. You can also try rubbing a pencil graphite or wax along the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Strap adjustment is difficult

Ensure the strap is not twisted where it passes through the buckle. Firmly grip both sides of the strap near the buckle and pull or slide to adjust. If it feels stiff, try flexing the buckle slightly.

Bag appears misshapen

Gently stuff the bag with soft material, like tissue paper or a light scarf, and allow it to sit for a while. Avoid overstuffing, which can strain the material.

Color transfer from bag to clothing

While rare, this can occur with darker colors, especially when the bag is new or exposed to moisture. Ensure the bag is dry. If transfer occurs, wash the affected clothing according to its care label. Test a small, inconspicuous area of the bag if concerned about colorfastness.
