Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Campus Backpack

A gift for my daughter.

I bought this backpack for a birthday present for my daughter who is in 6th grade. It is too small to hold all of her things! I should have bought the largest backpack!

I own the lilac medallion and love so, when the charcoal medallion came out had to have 1. now I'm thinking it will be returned. Vera quality seems to be going downhill. the differences on the charcoal medallion ~~1 color is not as vibrant, it already looks dull, faded. 2 the front pocket only has 1 zipper pull instead of 1, limiting access. 3 the back of the bag is not quilted so you don't have as much protection for your laptop. disappointing.

I love the color and print, I own the Santiago one, but everyday use makes the bag wear out and tear on the bottom. The bottom of my bag is scratched on the corners and seams. It is also unattractive now because of the yellow foam you can see where it is ripped. You truly do buy for the brand and print. Not quality. Also, this is expensive to only use for about one year.

Sent back, didn't like the color

I really liked the backpack style and size. However giving it two stars because it attracts a lot of debris and I have to constantly lint roll the bag. Also, one of the zippers fell apart within two weeks of using the bag. Really disappointed in quality.

The color is darker than pictured on the website. I was disappointed there's no key ring attachment inside to keep your keys secured and easy access.

I'm so bummed! I upgraded my mom-bag to this because it has so much space and I needed more room for medical supplies for my son. But after I moved into it (not even with heavy things, barely half full) the straps were digging into my shoulders terribly. I drove an hour to get this specific backpack and had been encouraged to go with this style by Vera Bradley staff.but its not working. I wish there was an option to exchange for another style online.

I've been a Vera Bradley customer for 15+ years! I just replaced my old and worn backpack and the quality has really decreased. The fabrics isn't as soft or plush. I was pretty surprised and disappointed.

This is such a plain back for the amount of money and not even a normal size back pack.

I thought I was upgrading from a large regular backpack to this one that is more compartmentalized but NO. This is meant more for rolled cloths for a day. Definitely not for traveling. The two main compartments are super thin and if you use one it leaves no space in the other. Definitely super disappointed.

Way smaller than what I expected. Had to return it bc it was smaller than the last xl campus backpack

Going from an XL to regular size -- She has not started school yet, and I am already very concerned. Not happy that there is more of a size difference than I expected. BUT-- extremely upset about difference in less padded shoulder straps and lack of enough reinforced stitching. High school now requires a laptop toted to and from school daily, varying number of heavy books plus school supplies needed are all in this backpack-- even a lunchbox! It gets HEAVY!!!! XL backpack [better made], lasted freshman and sophomore years before stitching finally gave away severely and had to be trashed. If this one makes it through first semester I'll be surprised. From now on, no more girls desire brand BUT well made from a serious company for LESS money!

I bought this because I loved the color. However, I returned it because the fabric seem very thin and was not waterproof. I ended up buying a different version of this backpack in the quilted tight fabric.

Bag was beautiful but smaller than what I expected

it collects a lot of lint and it gets dirty fast

Backpack was beautiful! However my daughter used her birthday money to purchase this and had her initials put on it and it is barely noticeable and small. She was a little sad about it.

No mention of being a Vera Bradley product anywhere Much less roomier than older models and not as much space to store items.I feel I need to not purchase your products on line anymore

Pretty and has numerous pockets

The bag is beautiful, and I love the butterfly print. I am sad to say the fabric near the snap is tearing already, and I haven't even used it a day.

It was just ok.

Too big did not expect it to be that huge

I love the backpack, but I haven't even had it a year (and that includes a summer where I wasn't in school and didn't use it) and one of the zippers already ripped. This is not a result of normal wear a tear because the thread just snapped on the laptop zipped pocket. This is not a spot that has a lot of strain so I don't understand it and I'm very disappointed that this expensive of a backpack didn't even last a year.

The padding on the backpack sucks, it's hurting my arms a lot specially with the amount of things I have to carry. I like the style, and softness but when it comes to weight I would not recommend that much.
