Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Cotton Convertible Backpack Shoulder Bag

I love the new print as well as the features of this awesome pocket book/backpack. I must use the light weight cotton purses because of my neck and back issues. Need the light weight. Tons of pockets and storage areas. Love the outside pockets to quickly slipped my phone and keys in. Zippered pocket for things you want to make sure you don't lose but can easily access. Extra Pockets inside for make up, pens,etc. Plenty room for brush, tissues, and wallet And other things if you want to add them. Love how the strap turns the purse into a backpack. Great for hands-free shopping and to take pressure off of one side of your body if you've got a little bit too much weight in the purse.

This is just perfection. I bought something similar from another company and didn't like their new patterns, so I jumped on this one hoping that it was similar. Perfect. Awesome zip pocket for all your stuff, so that you don't need to clutter the main compartment. Side pockets are wonderful to slip your phone in. The print is so beautiful. I just love everything about this bag.

Love the versatility. so easy to change to backpack. Only issue I have is the material, everything clings to it.

This bag is perfect for me! It's just the right size and I love the ability to use it as a backpack so quickly! I sold my mom & aunt on it!

Live the versatility of this purse/backpack. Wish I had this when I was traveling so much!

I love this bag! It's got two pockets and a zipper pocket on the inside, two pockets and a big pocket for your tablet on the outside and it can be a shoulder strap or a backpack, it's awesome!

This light weight gorgeous bag is the best. I love the versatility and it is my everyday go to.

I LOVE IT!! You can wear it like a shoulder bag or convert it into a back pack. I absolutely love the idea I ended but 2 more. This is definitely by far the best Favourite for me.

This bag really wowed me. I always love my Vera items, but seriously this one is impressive. I often like to carry a small vera tote as my daily purse, and this holds just about the same amount (I have a little room to spare just like in my small vera), but now I have the option to simply & quickly switch it to a backpack if I so choose. Such a game changer! Plenty of interior & exterior pockets too which is my favorite thing about Vera. If you like the small vera tote but would also love to have a backpack option, don't hesitate!

Very handy for day trips, parks, any play you'd want to take a little extra then what you'd pack in a crossbody bag. It's not huge, goes from backpack to shoulder bag very fast. I've bought more than one now.

I got this for a recent trip to Vegas. My shoulder can't take a heavy backpack yet due to surgery I had, so this one is perfect! It holds what I'd be carrying in a big crossbody and it had room for stuff I was buying on the Strip. I loved I coujd make it a shoulder bag in a instant when I'd go in to the casinos and restaurants, so no clunking a big backpack around. It's not a huge bag but plenty good for errands , day out and be be great for theme parks and such. I've bought a few if them in different prints as I like how handy it us. Fits great under seat in places too.

I have a lot of Vera Bradley items. I have to say that this is my favorite one. I just finished up with Chemo and still have my port, so it's been hard wearing a purse. This one is lightweight and I can use this purse in that area and no problems. It's perfect!

This is a great purse, quality. Good size, beautiful color (I got the green), well made and has lots of pockets. Also saves my back as a convertible bookbag.

Love everything about this bag color, size and just how happy I am to carry it

I Love this bag , I was looking for something for a long time and I'm glad I bought this one, is big enough for the little and the lots , I love how easy it goes from a hand bag to a backpack. Love the print , love the pockets , love everything about it.

While I do love this bag,It’s definitely better as a shoulder bag in my opinion if you are going to use it more as book bag I’d just buy a small book bag. I bought this as my spring/ summer purse and also to bring I found the transition to be a bit clunky and not smooth. On upcoming travel ( TBD)thinking it may be good for airplane since it does hold my iPad however, in book bag mode those outside pockets are just asking for someone to reach on in… wouldn’t put anything you wouldn’t want stolen in those!

Love that this purse quickly and easily transforms into a backpack. Best if bith worlds.

THis bag is bigger that I expected but holds so much. Not to be used everyday, perhaps, but whenever needed to pack extra stuff.

Received this and so far it is great. Just the right size for everything

Absolutely love this bag!! It's a perfect size, roomy but not huge. Very light since it's cotton. The small pockets on the front are perfect for phone and sunglasses. The large pocket on the outside is great for my wallet and keys. Inside pockets are great to just grab stuff and keep it separated. It goes from purse to backpack so easily! It's comfortable to wear both ways. I am so excited I found this purse!!

Love it

This is hi ping to be my favorite Summer bag! Plenty of pockets and lots of room!!

I was so excited when I saw this hobo bag that I couldn't wait to have it. It is easy to use and has lots of space.

Just received it. I haven't used it yet,but I really like the design of the bag and the fact it can be converted to a backpack is awesome. The cotton fabric is also great and Vera Bradley is always wonderful!

Wish shoulder strap slightly longer switches easily to back pack.
