Using this 55 - liter Black Hole duffel bag is a breeze. First, unzip the main compartment and start packing your gear neatly. You can use the interior to separate different items like clothes, shoes, and toiletries. For a weekend trip, just throw in your essentials. If it's an extended trip, organize your stuff in a way that you can easily find what you need. When it comes to carrying, you can use the handles or the shoulder strap for more comfort. As for maintenance, after each use, empty the bag and shake out any dirt. If it gets dirty, use a mild detergent and a soft cloth to gently clean the exterior. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the recycled fabric and the matte finish. Also, store it in a dry place when not in use to keep it in good condition.
