Troubleshooting

Shoulder strap slips or feels uncomfortable

Ensure the adjustable buckle is firmly set. Experiment with different strap lengths to find the most comfortable fit for your body shape and desired carrying style (shoulder vs. crossbody).

Zippers feel stiff or sticky

Gently rub a graphite pencil along the teeth of the zipper, then carefully open and close the zipper multiple times to distribute the graphite. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Bag appears creased or has lost its shape

Gently stuff the bag with soft, clean items like tissue paper or a scarf when not in use to help it maintain its form. For minor creases, you can try hanging it in a steamy bathroom for a short period.

Do not tumble dry or expose to direct heat. 4. Storage: When not in use, store the bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading and material degradation. 5. Monkey Charm: The 3D metal monkey can be wiped clean with a dry, soft cloth.
