We say the best way to wash your pack is to keep it simple — these bags are built to take a beating, and cleaning them doesn’t require anything fancy. Most of the time, water and a little elbow grease is all you need.
You can rinse off the dirt by hand or scrub the bag with a soft brush. If things get especially muddy, a gentle pressure wash works too. Your gear is designed for real-world abuse, so clean as much or as little as you want.
Bag Care Pointers:
Use mild soap + water
Simple Green or similar mild cleaners work great. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Air dry only
Hang bags to dry fully before storing.
(No dryers or heat sources — it can damage materials over time.) - Remove bags when not in use
This helps extend the life of the fabric and hardware. - Store out of direct sun and away from heat
UV and high heat shorten the lifespan of any outdoor gear. - Wear scars with pride
Scrapes and stains tell the story of where you’ve been — they’re the best part.
