Care and Maintainance

1. Cleaning Your Luggage

Quick Clean: Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove surface dust.
Deep Clean: Use mild soap and water with a soft brush to scrub away dirt. Rinse with clean water and let it air dry.

2. Waterproofing

While tire tubes are naturally water-resistant, apply a rubber-safe waterproofing spray for extra protection after prolonged use.

3. Zipper Care

Clean zippers periodically with a brush to remove dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant if the zippers feel stiff.

4. Handling Tears and Ruptures

In case of tears or punctures, your bag can be repaired just like a tire tube—with a patch! This eco-friendly material is easy to fix, keeping it functional for years.

5. Handling Minor Scratches

Minor scratches are normal for upcycled material. For any major repairs, contact our support for sustainable repair options.
