FAQs
Is the Rains Rolltop Rucksack fully waterproof?
The rucksack is water-resistant due to its PU-coated Nylon fabric and rolltop closure, designed to protect essentials from rain. While highly protective, it is not rated as submersible and prolonged exposure to heavy downpours may allow some moisture ingress, especially through zippers if not fully secured.
What material is the rucksack made from?
It is constructed from Rains' signature PU-coated Nylon fabric, known for its durability and water-repellent properties.
What are the dimensions of the laptop pocket?
Specific dimensions for the laptop pocket are not provided, but it is designed to accommodate most standard laptops for side-access convenience.
How do I secure the rucksack for cycling?
Utilize the buckle-fastened chest strap for a secure fit that minimizes movement during rides. The front D-ring can also be used to attach a bike lock.
Can I machine wash the rucksack?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Clean the rucksack by wiping it with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow it to air dry completely.
Is this rucksack suitable for hiking?
While durable and water-resistant, the rucksack is primarily designed for urban commutes. For strenuous hiking, dedicated hiking backpacks with more advanced support and ventilation systems might be more suitable.
What is the capacity of the rucksack?
The exact capacity in liters is not specified, but it offers a spacious main compartment suitable for daily essentials.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping through zippers
Ensure the coated zippers are fully closed and the fabric around them is clean. For maximum protection, always use the rolltop closure effectively.
Shoulder straps feel uncomfortable
Adjust the length of the shoulder straps for a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure the weight is evenly distributed within the backpack.
Carabiner is difficult to attach
Make sure the rolltop is scrolled sufficiently to create tension for the carabiner to engage easily. Ensure there are no obstructions.
Exterior fabric feels sticky
This can occur over time with PU-coated fabrics. Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
