- The colour of my bag looks not as I expected from seeing your photos.
- We do our best to display colours as realistically as possible. However, various monitors and browsers always display colours a bit different. In addition, each article is unique, therefore colour deviations are possible from item to item. In case of strong colour deviations please contact our support, so that the pictures on our website can be adjusted if necessary!
- Does my notebook fit into the notebook compartment?
- The suppliers' measurements in inches only refer to the monitor's diagonal and disregard the frame and the total size. These differ from type to type so we can not make any binding statement. Please compare the dimensions of your notebook with the measurements on our website before ordering or search here for a retailer nearby and test the notebook compartment in a local store.
- Can you tell me more about your production conditions?
- You get detailed information about our production here. In the future we plan to give you even more, transparent insights into our work so stay tuned.
