Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Cotton Convertible Backpack Shoulder Bag

I love my new bag, the right size! I love the way you can carry it on your arm or on your back and I have plenty of room for all my junk not to big and the colors are absolutely beautiful.

Finally a bag that is versatile with plenty of pockets! Love that I don't have to switch bags to go to festivals, amusement parks, or other places where you don't want to have to carry anything and this can simply turn your purse into a backpack and you still have all your purse necessities in one spot! Also, has a big enough front pocket to hold a 32oz hydroflask that is easily accessible. Great product!

This is a great bag for a day out running errands or for a trip. Plenty of room for all the extras you might need.

I hesitated to order this bag because I wasn't familiar with the fabric and I'm picky about that...tactile issues...but I decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did. I do like the fabric and appreciate that it is recycled. The bag itself is roomy and easy to carry. I'm not a fan of shoulder bags, so I let the straps out as far as possible and it does fit me as a cross-body, if I want to carry it that way. I prefer carrying it as a backpack to keep it out of the way and lessen the strain on my neck and shoulder. (It might be helpful to know that I'm 5'3" and under 135# for the scale of the cross-body fit.)

Love the conversion to p Back pack so easily! My now fav!!

It's exactly what I had been looking for. Love the fabric, size, and functionality of the whole thing. So happy! An iPad fits perfectly in the external zipper compartment, and my iPhone (it's the big one -- max) fits just find in one of the two external slip pockets. And then -- there's the entire inside still! Love being able to carry it as a shoulder back and backpack. It's perfect.

Love how easy it is to go from shoulder bag to back pack., my water botle fits nicely in one of the outside pockets

I have loved this purse from day 1. It's really spacious and comes in handy.

I am using this as a purse. Husband said he liked the color.

This is a new style for me. I love the backpack option. Taking it on a cruise next month!

I love everything about this purse, it's great! I got a stain on it that looks like grease and I can not get it off. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. I've tried a stain remover, spray and wash and then washed it on delicate with vinegar and detergent.

I ordered this because of thesale price, and because I feel orange is just a fun Fall color. It's a good size, and I like the depth of the handle for over the shoulder use.

I started using it and instantly felt that this is going to become one of my favorites. I love the light weight feel and the outside pockets are perfect for sliding my phone and sunglasses.

My mom needed to stop using her leather very heavy purse. So I helped her find this beautiful light weight bag. I love the style of purse I plan to get myself one in the future. I have loved Vera Bradley for over 20 years thank you for the quality products!

I love the looks of this bag, I'll be using for my vacation in a few months.

My go-to bag when I'm carrying a lot has been the sling backpack for a few years. When traveling, I wanted something that looked more like a purse when carrying into restaurants or theaters. This bag is PERFECT. Right after it arrived, I went on a long weekend to NYC, and the trip sold me on this bag. It fits so much and has plenty of pockets for organization. It's cute as a purse, but the option to carry it hands free is amazing. It does get a little uncomfortable as a backpack if you have too much weight in it, but it's hard to weigh it down that much. (I had five water bottles in it and the straps dug in a bit.) I didn't realize when ordering that it had two large zippered compartments. This allowed me to feel comfortable carrying it as a backpack even in a crowded city, as I could have my cell phone and wallet secure in the smaller of the two main compartments right up against my back.

Great product. Love the ease of conversion to a backpack.

Love the 1 shoulder strap that converts to back pack. Get design and outside pockets.

I love these convertible backpack purses. This orange color is perfect! I have a black one also.

roomy, clever design, use for travel, and love the color

She loved this pattern when it was released& now, she carries it everyday!! So pretty in person - better than online!

This item works as a backpack, crossbody, or shoulder bag. It is roomy for extra items and the outside pockets are great for keys and phone.

Awesome quality and wonderful bag. I love that it changes from a tote to a bag on my back. Beautiful color and great storage.

Since becoming a mom, I'm into the ease of a convertible purse. This bag is the best one I've purchased! It's large enough to fit all I need for myself and my toddler, and all the pockets are easy to access! I love this bag so much!

Just love this bag the color is to die for. I do wish they had cargo pockets on sides.Very light. weight.
