FAQs
Can this backpack fit a 16-inch laptop?
Yes, the padded sleeve is specifically engineered to fit laptops up to 16 inches (40.6 cm).
Is the backpack waterproof?
It features a water-repellent finish that protects gear from light rain and elements, but it is not intended for submersion.
Are the materials sustainable?
Yes, all exterior and interior fabrics, webbings, and mesh are made from 100% recycled materials.
How do I access my laptop quickly?
You can use the dedicated side-access zipper to retrieve your laptop without opening the main compartment.
Does it have a chest strap?

Troubleshooting
Laptop compartment feels stiff to open
Ensure the internal padding is not caught on the zipper path and break in the fabric by regularly loading the bag to its capacity.
Water repellency seems to decrease over time
Regularly clean the exterior to remove dirt buildup that can clog the fabric weave and re-apply a DWR spray if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your backpack, begin by adjusting the shoulder straps while the bag is on your back to ensure the padded panel sits flush against your spine. Secure the sternum strap across your chest to prevent the straps from slipping. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, spot-clean the polyester fabric with a soft brush and mild soap. Ensure the backpack is completely air-dried before storage. Because the fabric is water-repellent, a simple damp cloth is usually sufficient to wipe away dirt or travel grime. Avoid contact with harsh chemicals or abrasive surfaces to maintain the integrity of the PFC-free coating.
