Troubleshooting
Zipper gets stuck or is difficult to move
Check for fabric caught in the zipper teeth and gently clear it; applying a tiny amount of candle wax to the teeth can improve glide.
Fabric appears dusty or dirty
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust, followed by a gentle wipe-down with a damp cloth and mild soap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your backpack in top condition, avoid overloading it beyond its intended capacity, as this can strain the zippers over time. Because it does not feature an integrated internal sleeve, it is highly recommended to use a separate padded sleeve if you plan to carry a laptop or tablet to prevent impact damage.
For cleaning, spot-treat stains with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the bag in a washing machine, as high-heat cycles or heavy agitation can damage the fabric finish and components. Allow the bag to air dry completely in a shaded area away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrant red color of the material.
