Troubleshooting
Bag feels too heavy when packed.
Review contents and consider removing non-essential items. Distribute weight evenly across the bag. For daily use, consider carrying only what's necessary for that specific activity.
Zippers feel stiff or stick.
Gently rub a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth, then open and close the zipper several times to distribute the graphite. Avoid forcing stuck zippers.
Water spots or light stains appear.
Due to its water-repellent nature, most spots can be gently wiped with a clean, damp cloth immediately. For more persistent marks, use a small amount of mild soap diluted in water, then wipe clean and air dry.
Bag loses its shape when empty.
This is common for soft-structured totes. To help it maintain shape, you can store it with a pillow or soft items inside. When carrying, the contents will naturally give it form.
