As you continue to explore the world, your World Traveller luggage or bag will be subject to wear and tear. While we ensure our products are made with high-quality materials, it is important to practice proper product care to ensure the long life of your bag or luggage.
Hardside Luggage
To clean the exterior of your hard case luggage, spot clean any tough stains or marks with damp cloth or soft bristle brush and mild soap
For aluminum bags, you can coat with metal polish after cleaning and drying for additional shine and protection.
Softside Luggage
To clean the extrerior of soft case lugggage, spot clean using a cloth with mild soap and water.
Odors In Luggage
If you notice any odors from within your luggage, sprinkle baking soda inside the suitcase and let sit overnight closed.
Vacuum the bag out the next day to collect the baking soda.
Fabric Bags
We recommend only spot cleaning any fabric bags. Use mild soap and damp cloth and wipe away any dirt on your bag. Make sure that fabric is dry.
Proper Packing
To reduce the likelihood of zippers and fabric seams tearing, do not overstuff your luggage or bags and pack the heaviest items at the bottom.
Proper Storage
Store your bag in a cool and dry place out of direct sunlight.
Ensure your bag is dry before storing it away to prevent mildew from forming.
If you're not a frequent traveller, we recommend covering your luggage with a luggage cover to prevent dust from settling.
For small bags and soft case luggage, make sure that all zippers are closed, and stuff outside pockets with paper stuffing in order to help maintain its shape.
