Does this backpack come in other colors or designs?

Yes, Trixie offers other backpack designs and colors, such as 'Mr. Dragon' in Green and 'Mrs Butterfly' in Multicolor, and 'Mister Bear' in Brown.

Troubleshooting

Backpack exterior feels stiff after washing.

This may be due to the acrylic coating. Ensure you are only wiping with a damp cloth and avoiding machine washing or harsh detergents, and air dry. The stiffness should lessen with use.

Zipper is difficult to open or close.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. You can also apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead to the teeth to help it glide smoothly.

Water-repellent feature seems diminished.

The water-repellent coating can wear down over time. Avoid excessive washing. For minor re-treatment, consider using a fabric-safe water-repellent spray suitable for synthetic fabrics, following product instructions carefully. Ensure the backpack is clean and dry before applying.
