Zip: Our Waterproof Soft Cooler Bags all have a YKK aquaseal zip, along with our seriously tough Armour Tech fabric, this makes our cool bags completely water and air-tight.
After each adventure, (especially if you've taken your cool bag along on an epic paddling adventure where salt water may've splashed onto your zip) we recommend using a clean cloth and warm water to wipe your zip. This is mainly to stop any build up of salt or sand/grit.
There will be some lubricant included within your cool bag. To maintain a totally waterproof seal long into the future use the supplied lubricant on the zipper dock. Carefully apply a small amount to the front, back and inside of the zipper dock to keep the zipper free moving and functioning well.
In addition to this, please find some photos below that demonstrate the best way to use your zip - this will give your zip a good working life. Cleaning:
We expect your gear to get a little dirty on your adventures. Wash off salt, dirt and grime with soapy water and rinse well with fresh water.
Mop up excess water with a cloth or towel. Leave the zipper open in a warm environment to ensure your kit is dry. Storing: Ensure your Cool Bag is completely moisture free. Apply the supplied lubricant generously and pull the zipper to the fully closed position. This will help protect the Cool Bag’s Water-Tight feature.
