I love this lunch box!!!

Love this bag. I have used Kavu in the past but I like this bag better. I like the chunky zippers. I like the organization the front pockets offer, the bigger zip around pocket holds 2 pens securely and my glasses in the 3 slip pockets. The flat pocket on the front is where I keep Advil, hand sanitizer and chap stick. I keep my phone in the pocket that sits against my back. What makes this better than the Kavu is that it isn't flat. The fact that it isn't flat makes it much easier to get things out of it. I just swing it around to the front and have easy access to my wallet and mask (ugh) which at this point are the two things that I need access to the most. There are however 3 things that can use improvement. I really wish it had a zipper pocket on the back wall of the the main zip area. The strap tends to want to slip to it's longest length, I tighten it it slips back to being to long. To remedy this I put a small plastic snap on the strap to snap it together so it can't slide. Lastly because it is a slicker fabric it does like to slide around to the front when I bend over. None of these things are that big of a deal but I thought I would mention them. I own this bag in 3 different prints, 2 in this nylon fabric and a Disney one that's made of cotton, Get it you won't be disappointed.

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!

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.

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

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.

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