FAQs

Is this lunchbox insulated?

The New Kichirou is primarily a transport bag; while it is made of durable material, it does not feature specialized thermal insulation.

Can I fit a large water bottle in the bag?

The bag is best suited for small-to-medium containers; a large water bottle may be too tall to allow the flap to close securely.

How do I remove the shoulder strap?

The strap features clips on both ends; simply press the release lever on the clips to detach them from the D-rings.

Is the fabric waterproof?

The fabric is water-resistant, which helps protect contents from light splashes or rain, but it should not be submerged in water.

What is the trolley sleeve used for?

The trolley sleeve is a fabric band on the back of the bag designed to slide over the handle of a suitcase, making it easy to carry through airports or train stations.

Troubleshooting

Strap slipping or not staying at desired length

Ensure the slider on the shoulder strap is clicked fully into position and that the weight of the bag is not exceeding the strap's maximum tension capacity.

Difficulty closing the flap

Check to ensure that food containers are not overstacked, which can push against the flap and prevent it from folding closed correctly.

Stains on the exterior fabric

Use a gentle fabric cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, blotting the stain rather than rubbing to avoid damaging the textile finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Trolley sleeve makes it perfect for travel
  • Compact and lightweight footprint
  • Durable construction typical of Kipling products
  • Easy to clean materials

Cons

  • Limited interior capacity for large food containers
  • Fold-over flap does not offer the same security as a full zipper
  • Not insulated for long-term temperature control

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the bag, attach the shoulder strap to the side D-rings if you prefer hands-free carrying, or remove it and use the top handle for a more briefcase-like aesthetic. To keep your New Kichirou in top condition, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth as needed. Avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the fabric and the shape of the bag. If the lining gets dirty, gently spot clean with mild soap and water, then allow it to air dry completely with the flap open to ensure moisture evaporates fully from the interior.
