Using your Big Agnes High - Performance Tech Gear Compression Stuff Sacks is easy. First, open the top and bottom lids. Put your gear inside the sack. Then, use the four webbing straps to start compressing your gear. The webbing and ladder - lock system will help you secure the compressed gear. Keep tightening until your gear is reduced to about one - third of its original size.
When using these sacks, make sure not to over - stuff them as it may affect the compression performance and the integrity of the sack. Also, avoid sharp objects that could potentially tear the ultralight nylon material.
For maintenance, if the sack gets dirty, you can gently hand - wash it with mild soap and cold water. After washing, let it air - dry completely. Store the sack in a cool, dry place when not in use. This will help maintain its water - resistance and durability over time.
