Using your Vans Old Skool Drop V Black Backpack is easy. First, open the large main compartment to store your books, notebooks, and put your laptop in the dedicated sleeve. Use the front zip pocket's organizer to keep your pens, keys, and other small items neatly arranged. Slip your water bottle into the side pocket. When carrying the backpack, adjust the padded shoulder straps for maximum comfort. As for maintenance, clean the backpack with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the 100% polyester shell and lining. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use to keep it in good condition.
