The color of the product doesn’t match the one that was available in the pictures on the website. It would be awesome to request an exchange with the retailer as stated in FAQs.

I purchased this backpack for hiking and it performed really well. The water resistance was excellent and the design was comfortable to wear. I highly recommend it for outdoor enthusiasts.
Natalie Tan –
What if the zippers didn’t get clogged with water despite being waterproof?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for sharing your thought-provoking question, Natalie! You’re right, even the best waterproof gear can sometimes struggle with water pressure. The Aropec TBU Waterproof Backpack is designed with a waterproof zipper garage that helps prevent water from entering the bag. However, if water does seep in, it’s usually a result of the zipper being forced open or water pressure exceeding the zipper’s tolerance. Our zippers are made from robust materials and have a secure seal to minimize the risk of clogging but we can’t guarantee complete prevention of water clogs during extreme conditions. If you have any more questions or would like to discuss further, please let us know!

The only thing that bothered me with this backpack is the short time I had to carry it before it starts to wear off, but apart from that, it was totally worth it. Fabric felt really high in quality and remained airtight.

I loved the compact size and good water proofing of this backpack. Fitted all my necessities perfectly without overloading.
