Keep your Eastpak TRANSIT'R PRO L Khaki Pro Coated trolley looking and performing its best with these simple cleaning and maintenance steps.

Quick answer

Clean your TRANSIT'R PRO L Khaki Pro Coated luggage with a soft damp cloth and mild soap, avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the water-repellent coating, and store it in a cool dry place to preserve the 30-year warranty.

Why the coated fabric needs special care

The TRANSIT'R PRO L features a water-repellent coating that protects your belongings from light rain. This coating is durable but can degrade if you use abrasive cleaners, bleach, or machine washing. Gentle care keeps the coating intact and the khaki finish looking fresh.

Common mistake: using the wrong cleaning tools

Many travelers reach for paper towels or scrub brushes, which can scratch the coated surface. Stick to microfiber cloths or soft sponges. Also avoid soaking the fabric—excess moisture can seep into the lining or damage the integrated TSA lock mechanism.

How to care for your TRANSIT'R PRO L Khaki Pro Coated luggage

Wipe down after every trip: Use a soft microfiber cloth slightly dampened with lukewarm water. Gently wipe the entire exterior, especially the zippered compartments and handlebar area where dirt accumulates. Dry with a separate clean cloth. Never use wet wipes or alcohol-based wipes—they can strip the protective coating.
Deep clean when needed: Mix a few drops of mild liquid soap (like dish soap) with water. Dip a soft cloth into the solution, wring it out well, and spot-clean stained areas. Rinse the cloth with clean water and wipe away soap residue. Air dry completely before storing. Test the soap on a hidden seam first to confirm it doesn't discolor the khaki fabric.
Care for the wheels and handle: Check the two smooth-rolling wheels for hair or debris after each trip. Remove any tangles with tweezers or a toothpick. Wipe the telescopic handle with a damp cloth and let it dry fully before retracting. Lubricate wheels only if they squeak—use a silicone-based lubricant, never oil that attracts dirt.
Store properly between trips: Keep the trolley in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Store it upright or on its wheels, not on its side. If storing for months, leave the zippered compartments partially open to prevent musty odors. Avoid stacking heavy items on top of the luggage—it can deform the coated fabric over time.
Protect the TSA lock: The integrated TSA lock is a precision mechanism. Keep it dry and free of dust. If the lock feels sticky, use a dry graphite lubricant (not oil) in the keyhole. Never force the combination dials. Write down your combination and keep it separate from the luggage—there is no reset option if you forget it.
