FAQs
What material is the Rains Rolltop Rucksack Large made of?
It is made from Rains' signature waterproof PU (polyurethane) fabric, engineered for carrying strength, durability, and a smooth feel.
How do I best secure the rolltop closure?
Simply scroll the top opening of the rucksack down several times (the more scrolls, the more secure and waterproof) and then fasten the signature carabiner to the attached strap.
Is this rucksack suitable for carrying a laptop?
Yes, it features a dedicated side-access laptop pocket designed to protect your device.
What are the cycle-ready features?
It includes a front D-ring, ideal for attaching a bike lock, and a buckle-fastened chest strap for a secure, ride-proof fit.
How large is the main compartment?
The rucksack opens to reveal a single, spacious main compartment designed to hold a significant amount of daily essentials.
Can I fit a water bottle in this bag?
Yes, there are two side slip pockets that are suitable for carrying water bottles or other slim items like umbrellas.
How should I clean my Rolltop Rucksack?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a small amount of mild soap or a specialized zipper lubricant. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Carabiner is hard to clip
Check the carabiner and its attachment point for any debris or damage. Ensure the rolltop is scrolled tightly enough for a secure closure.
Water seeping through seams
While Rains' products are highly water-resistant, prolonged submersion or extreme downpours might test the seams. For extended exposure, consider using a dry bag inside for critical items. Minor seepage can sometimes be addressed with seam sealant, but consult Rains' official guidelines first.
Shoulder straps feel uncomfortable
Adjust the shoulder straps to your body size and preferred fit. Ensure the chest strap is buckled and tightened for better weight distribution, especially when the bag is heavily loaded.
