Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Recycled Lighten Up Reactive Sling Backpack

Love it ! First time I ever had anything like it & serves my purpose of shopping with it on my shoulder & easy access love anything denim...!

Love the design that allows the weight to be distributed evenly. I also love all the pockets to store items separately and protect electronics from both dirt and moisture. Perfect for traveling abroad where one needs to be aware ones surroundings. It can be worn in the front or back of the body.

Great pockets

Just love it. I gave it to my daughter as a gift. She just loves it also. The size is perfect and she loved the black color. Thank you so much for this backpack.

Love this sling backpack! Lots of space and comfortable to wear.

This Sling Backpack is everything I was hoping for! It is comfortable to wear over my shoulder and holds everything that I need for the day. The different pockets with strong zippers allow me to know where everything is and I don't have to waste time looking for my wallet , phone or anything else that I need. I have received complements from complete strangers about how pretty the material is. The size is perfect!

I love this bag. I love the chunky zippers, I love the organization in the larger exterior front zip pocket. I put small items like hand sanitizer,lotion,chapstick in the front flat zip pocket.I like that I don't have to sit it down on surfaces to get things out of it. I keep my phone in the pocket that sits against my back, when I have the ringer off I can feel it vibrate. I have 2 very minor complaints, I really wish it had a zipper pocket on the inside of the main big compartment. I like to keep important things in those places that I don't want to risk being drug out with my wallet. I also like to keep emergency cash stored just in case I should ever lose my wallet. The other thing is the strap slips out to it's longest length as I wear it, I tighten it and it slowly slips back out. I actually remedied this by getting it where I wanted it and then put a small snap on the extra length of strap to keep it from sliding. I own 3 of these bags 2 in the nylon material and one in the cotton. I prefer the reactive ones solely for those nice zippers. Get this bag you will love it.

I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS BAG! It has now become my favorite go-to bag for traveling. It keeps my hands free while also allowing me to have my items close by! This bag is my first choice when it comes to recommending it to friends or giving it as a gift!

Love this bag. its a perfect size. the only thing i would change is maybe a couple of small pockets in the inside for small items.

Just for this backpack and I love it. Vera Bradley this one is a winner.

I bought this to use fir small trips hiking, zoo etc. it has been extremely useful and handy. I would definitely reconvert buying this.

I own a multitude of Vera bags, but this is my favorite. I try one of my others (which I really like) but go back to this one! It is so light weight and easy to carry and every item that I need and want goes in it: ipad, masks, hand sanitizers, shawl, plus all that I normally carry. It even goes to church and every where else. Highly recommend.

I usually don't write reviews, but I had to for this bag. I currently own four of them now. It's easy to use and very comfortable. Especially during the pandemic, I don't want to have to put my bag on a counter or in a shopping cart. I can simply swing it around and grab my phone, wallet, masks (the front pocket is perfect to store masks away from other items so they stay cleaner), or hand sanitizer. Even with a water bottle in the main compartment, the bag is lightweight.

I use my bag for everything. The pockets are great. I love the one on the back- great for card, keys, and phone. Need at my fingertips. I am currently in the market for a new one. I am currently looking at the new patterns.

Has a place for everything! Super comfortable strap! Holds up very well for everyday use! Will ordering a second one soon!

this was the perfect bag to use for hiking and walking around with my kids on vacation.

I love this little sling pack! It is the perfect size for my needs. It's comfortable to wear. The material is easy to keep clean and there is a cute patterned material on the inside.

It's so easy and convenient this bag. Also the material is easy to wipe down. I love this bag and want another in a different pattern.

It was purchased as a gift. She asked for the sling backpack and ask for the gray. She says it is just what she wanted. She can add snacks in it as they are out and about to eat.

Love the material and design. Size of the pockets is great. I also carry and the zipper pocket on the back is perfect!

I like it because it is different than a purse or back pack. Very casual, soft with nice compartments!

Absolutely love this backpack! Would definitely purchase again!!

Love this cooler!!! Bought for my daughter for the upcoming school year. All fo her previous lunch boxes (not Vera Bradley ones) were very small and hard to fit bigger bottles. This one is very spacious and can even expand. I think it will be used for years to come!

Love, love, love this bag! So smartly made, with access to every inch while I'm wearing it. Fits my iPad in a padded sleeve (another awesome Vera purchase), along with all my other stuff. Very comfy slung over my shoulder or as a crossbody.

I use this as my everyday purse and kind of a small diaper bag! It's amazing and sooo easy to use! I don't usually write reviews, but if you are in the reviews trying to see if this is the purse for you... trust me you won't regret it!
