Troubleshooting

Weight feels unstable while hiking

Adjust the side compression straps to pull the load closer to your center of gravity and ensure heavier items are packed closer to your back.

Hydration hose is kinked or restricted

Check that the hose is routed properly through the internal sleeve and not compressed by heavy gear inside the pack.

Raincover does not fit securely

Ensure all gear is compressed via the side straps first; then pull the raincover elastic cord tight and secure the toggle at the base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, adjust the torso length first, followed by tightening the hipbelt to ensure most of the weight rests on your pelvic bones. The shoulder straps should conform to your body without creating pressure points.

Compatibility: This pack is compatible with most standard hydration bladders. Ensure the hose is routed through the dedicated port for a smooth flow.

Care Instructions: Keep your pack clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth after use. If it becomes muddy, use a mild soap and a soft brush. Always allow the pack to air dry completely in a shaded area; avoid direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent UV degradation of the fabric. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
