Using this shooting hoops backpack is easy. First, open the zip - top closure to put your items inside the main compartment. You can use the outside front zip pocket for things you need to access quickly, like keys or a phone. Adjust the webbed shoulder straps to a comfortable length before putting on the backpack. You can also use the back carrying/hanging loop to hang it on a hook when not in use. For maintenance, wipe the canvas with a damp cloth if it gets dirty. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the fabric. Keep it in a dry place to prevent mold and mildew growth. And don't overstuff the backpack to avoid stretching the straps or fabric.
