Troubleshooting

Strap feels uncomfortable or bag sits awkwardly

Adjust the *adjustable shoulder strap* to find a length that allows the bag to rest comfortably at your hip or side. Experiment with wearing it cross-body or over one shoulder to see what feels best for your body type and activity.

Bag appears dirty or stained

Wipe the exterior of the polyester bag with a damp cloth using a small amount of mild soap. Avoid soaking the bag or using harsh abrasive cleaners. Allow it to air dry completely.
