Muddy forest floor, dirt splashes from biking or even leaking bottles - the backpack needs to be washed, but how?
At KOHLA, we prefer to be outdoors ourselves, and many of our colleagues bike to work every day. This means that our backpacks are in constant use all year round and need to be cleaned from time to time. For this reason, we created a completely different guide - what is the best way to wash a (hiking) backpack?

Washing instructions for (hiking) backpacks
Into the washing machine - NEVER! Hands off the washing machine - backpacks are not meant to be cleaned this way. The stress on the material is too high: coatings can come off, buckles can break and holes can develop. Therefore, you should always wash your backpack by hand!

What is the best way to dry the backpack?
Please do not throw it in the dryer - the high temperatures will damage the coating and upper material. Now that your backpack is clean, you can squeeze out all the padding with the help of a large towel.
The next step is to hang the backpack outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Make sure that it is hanging upside down so that the water can drain from all compartments.
Before you put your backpack back in the closet, please check if it is 100% dry to avoid mold and mildew stains.
