CARE & CELANING INSTRUCTIONS
GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR PACK:
Gregory packs and luggage are built to last a life me. They’re designed to be outside, and
the materials we use are meant to provide the highest durability and performance for their
intended use. But just like a quality piece of outerwear or footwear, packs need to be cared
for and cleaned to maintain durability and performance. On this page, we’ll outline the
simplest and most effec ve ways to keep your pack in top shape for years to come.
Cleaning Your Pack
Using a damp sponge with mild soap (we recommend non-toxic, environmentally
friendly op ons), wipe out the inside and outside of the pack bag a er each trip.
Rinse pack completely using cool, clean water. Make sure to rinse zippers and
buckles clean of dirt and debris. A bathtub is a great spot for cleaning and rinsing.
Wipe off excess water with a towel and allow the pack to air dry away from a heat
source and out of direct sunlight, keeping all zippered pockets open un l completely
dry.
For stubborn stains, use a so -bristled nylon brush. Note that excessive brushing can
damage the protec ve coa ngs on the fabric and is not recommended.
Do not
do the following:
o
Do not put your backpack in the washing machine
o
Do not put your backpack in the dryer – this can damage the protec ve
coa ngs
o
Do not dry using a hair dryer or heat gun
o
Do not use detergents or solvents to clean your pack
Rolling Luggage Care
Cleaning should be done in the same manner as packs (see above); however, we do
not recommend le ng the wheels soak in water.
Hardcase luggage can be scrubbed with a so -bristled nylon brush and some mild
soap and water to remove surface stains.
Ac veShield compartments can be wiped clean using a damp sponge with mild soap,
towel dried, and then le open to air dry completely.
3D Hydro Reservoir Care
Our patent-pending, 3D so -molded Gregory 3D Hydro Reservoirs are game-changers.
They’re easy to fill, a cinch to clean, and they dry completely in a frac on of the me
compared to tradi onal flat reservoirs. We recommend cleaning a er each use and
periodically cleaning with specialized hydra on reservoir cleaning tablets (follow tablet
instruc ons). Note that some tablets can change the color of the hose and reservoir. Below
are the steps we use for regular cleaning of the 3D Hydro Reservoir.
