Product Information
Full details
The Rains Rolltop Rucksack Large is an ideal choice for urban commuters and travelers who need a reliable, waterproof solution for carrying daily gear. Its primary benefit is the signature waterproof PU fabric construction that ensures your electronics and belongings stay dry during daily moderate rain. The main caveat to keep in mind is that the rolltop closure requires a specific folding technique to maintain its fully weather-resistant seal, which may be less convenient than a standard zipper for quick access.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Rains Rucksack, focus on the rolltop closure. To activate the waterproof protection, fold the top of the bag into a tight scroll and secure the carabiner firmly. Ensure the roll is tight enough to prevent water from entering the folds.
For care, wipe the PU surface with a damp cloth to remove dirt or city grime. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or machine washing, as these can compromise the waterproof coating. The bag is compatible with most 16-inch laptops and features adjustable straps that accommodate a wide range of adult body types for a personalized fit.
