• Wipe gently with a damp cloth or soft brush using mild soap and water.
• Avoid bleach, alcohol-based cleaners, or harsh chemicals.
• Air-dry completely before closing or storing.

1. Open the bag fully and empty contents.
2. Place in a warm, dry, ventilated space (indirect sunlight is OK).
3. Leave open for 24–48 hours to release trapped particles.

Tip: Performance varies by exposure and load. Occasional airing helps extend odor absorption over the long term.

• Load the bag with clean hands to avoid scent transfer to the exterior.
• If the outside picks up odor, wipe the surface and let it air out before reuse.
• Store open in a cool, dry area when not in use; close zippers during normal carry.
• Avoid long-term overfilling or tight folding to preserve shape and zipper performance.
• Do not machine wash or tumble dry smell-proof bags.

• Keep zippers clear of debris; run occasionally with a small dab of silicone-based zipper lubricant or clear candle wax.
• Wipe locks and buckles with a soft, dry cloth.
• Do not submerge hardware; avoid corrosive cleaners.

• Machine wash cold, inside out, gentle cycle.
• Use mild detergent only; no bleach or fabric softeners.
• Tumble dry low or air-dry flat to preserve fit and print.
• Avoid ironing directly over printed/embroidered logos.
• Do not dry clean.

• Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight.
• For smell-proof bags, keep zippers properly aligned and closed when carrying items.
• Fold heavy hoodies rather than hanging long-term to avoid shoulder bumps.
