Product Information
Full details
The Trixie Satchel is a durable and child-friendly backpack designed for kids aged 3 and up, perfect for daily adventures or the first school trip. Its key benefit is the thoughtful design that makes it easy for children to use, coupled with water-repellent material and machine-washable convenience. A minor caveat is that while water-repellent, it is not fully waterproof, so prolonged exposure to heavy rain may still affect contents.

Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to open or close
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil can lubricate the zipper teeth.
Shoulder straps keep slipping off
Adjust the shoulder straps to be snugger and ensure the chest strap is fastened and adjusted correctly.
Backpack has a slight odor
Air out the backpack in a well-ventilated area. If the odor persists, a gentle machine wash on a delicate cycle may help.
Water repellent surface is less effective after washing
The water-repellent treatment may diminish over time. Reapplication of a fabric-safe water repellent spray suitable for acrylic coatings can help restore this feature.
