FAQs
Is the Rains Rolltop Rucksack fully waterproof?
The Rucksack is made from water-repellent PU fabric and is designed to keep precipitation out. However, it is not fully waterproof, meaning prolonged exposure to heavy rain might allow some moisture to penetrate, especially if the rolltop closure is not secured properly.
What is the capacity of the main compartment?
The product description mentions a single main compartment, but a specific volume in liters is not provided. It is designed to hold daily essentials for commutes.
How do I clean the rucksack?
Wipe the rucksack with a damp cloth. Avoid using strong detergents or abrasive cleaners. Let it air dry.
Can this backpack accommodate a 15-inch laptop?
The rucksack features a side-access laptop pocket. While specific dimensions are not listed, it is designed to carry laptops, and typically fits standard sizes up to 15 inches. It's recommended to check external dimensions if possible.
What are the cycle-ready features?
Cycle-ready features include a front D-ring for attaching bike locks and a buckle-fastened chest strap for a secure, ride-proof fit.
What is the material of the rucksack?
The rucksack is made from Rains' signature PU (Polyurethane) fabric, known for its durability and smooth feel.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a damp cloth. Ensure no debris is caught in the zipper. You can also apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.
Water seeps through the rolltop closure
Ensure the rolltop is scrolled as tightly as possible before fastening the carabiner. Check that there are no gaps or loose folds in the material.
Shoulder straps feel uncomfortable
Adjust the webbing on the shoulder straps to find a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the chest strap is also buckled and tightened appropriately for better weight distribution.
