Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Cotton Small Backpack

I have been using this product (in a variety of different prints) for the last 5 years. It is my absolute favorite. I've always been terrified of being locked out of my house/car/dorm room, so when I started college, I made sure I put all my essentials on or in this case. My keys and PED (electronic device to enter the dorm building) on the key ring, and my ID, student ID, car insurance, and important debit/credit cards and a little cash on the inside. To this day, I've never been locked out of anything because I just carry this thing at all times whenever I leave. Sure, it doesn't hold everything, but it does fit nicely inside of a larger wristlet or any sized purse, or if you have a wristlet with an unhooking strap, you can slide the key ring through the strap and re-hook. They usually wear out after a year or two (I'm pretty rough on just about everything I own), but at such a reasonable price, I just buy a fun new print when it starts looking ragged. I hope VB never discontinues this case!

I was really looking forward to getting the brand new Smartphone Wristlet that is supposed to come out next week but I couldn't wait that long to get yet another VB product. What can I say, I'm hooked! This zip ID case cannot fit a phone but I have an otterbox anyway so I'm not worried about protection and don't have a problem throwing it in my pocket. and when I plan on using this, I will only need my ID, maybe some cash and coins, and my debit. There are occasions I don't necessarily want to bring along my purse or even my large Turn Lock Wallet. I will be able to easily attach my keys to the key ring on this and put in the essentials and go. I can even attach it to my lanyard in Rosy Posies! I bought this in Tea Garden. The colors are so crisp and pop against the grey background.

As a college student, this is obviously the best pick for around campus. Your ID's plus cash and even your chapstick can fit in this gem. It probably isn't useful otherwise.

I got this Zip ID Case in Night and Day about 6 months ago. I use it for school to carry my ID, but it doubles as a wallet -- you can fit a wide range of things (cash, lip gloss, credit/debit/gift cards, etc.) in it. It's very durable and the perfect size to fit into other Vera Bradley purses. Overall, I've gotten a ton of use out of this little case and plan on using it for a long time.

I have used a Zip ID Case as my everyday, all the time, wallet for the last year or so. I love all of my VB items, but this is the one I never leave home without! It holds absolutely everything I'd carry in any other wallet, just in a stack, and it enables me to switch from one VB bag to another on a moment's notice. I keep my favorite photo in the front ID window, then inside I have 16 cards (drivers license, credit/debit, gym, insurance, etc.) and a folded bill for those times I need cash. While it is not exactly flat with all that's in there, I could still fit plenty more inside if I needed to and I have never had a problem getting a card in or out. I started using the Zip ID Case after seeing so many younger women using them and figured they were on to something ... and they were! It didn't take long to realize how perfectly functional these cases are. Sometimes I carry it all by itself, but it usually goes in another VB bag. It fits nicely in a wristlet along with a smart phone and lip balm (and more in the redesigned wristlet!) for that look. It also fits easily in the main zipper compartment of my Lizzy along with my phone and keys when I want to be hands-free. And of course it fits perfectly in the slip pockets of my hipsters and totes. For such a little item, it is truly the one VB item I cannot live without and I highly recommend it.

I have this in Very Berry Paisley and it is GREAT for putting your gym cards/work or school id/gated community entry card in. I have used for all three! It isn't something as a 35 year old woman I will use every day but it has its place in my wardrobe! It has a nice place to put important id so you can view it from the outside and then a nice pocket for cash or change. The zipper works great, and I love that the key ring is NOT attached to the zipper OR the inside of the case. It is outside so it can easily be clipped ON and off of your keys or lanyard.

It makes things very esy to find, if I need cash I know were to find! Awsome wallet!

This is a great little case. I got it to hold my license and flip phone (yes, it fits) when I walk my dogs or go to the gym, and it fits nicely in a pants or jacket pocket. Since then, I've used it to hold credit cards and money and use it as a small wallet in a purse. Recently, I got my phone, a credit card, and a car key in it--perfect! I plan to buy more.

I just received this from one of my mother's friends and I love it! I love the way that it feels and the bright colors that it displays. It is really an attention getter. I don't have to always bring a purse everywhere that I go, and I am not a girl girl. This will really come in handy once I start college in the fall of this year! I think that it is perfect for that picky teenager that you may not know what to shop for or that high school grad!

I love carrying a purse, but I changed purses too much. So, lately I've been putting my credit cards, and ID in this, and attach my keys to it & it's so easy. I recommend this to anyone, that's looking for something easy.

The Zip ID Case is great. No more worries about where I put my ID. I just put this in my wristlet and be on my way. An excellent product for college students!

I bought 6 of these for my daughters and her friends graduation present. These are great and perfect size for college ID's. They can slip into a pocket or computer case without an unsightly buldge. The zippers on these last even with taking id's out everyday. As a gift, my daughter got a coach one and the coach zipper broken almost immediately but this one has lasted for 1 year with no problems. My daughter now wants one for every outfit she wears!!

I purchased 2 of these, one in Plum Petals (for me), and one in Safari Sunset (for my BFF). Both of the colors are vibrant and colorful and the size is great. You can fit lots of change, some cash, your ID, and maybe 3 (?) credit cards of gift cards. I would recommend buying the lanyard with it, so you can maybe put it around your neck or use it as a wristlet. My friend loved it and she uses it all the time!Very cute and not very expensive either so it was a great purchase!

I bought 12 of these for Christmas gifts for the women in the back office where my husband works. He was their hero! As soon as they opened the boxes, they recognized the cases were Vera Bradley. I've also purchased these to give as Sweet Sixteen gifts with a gas gift card inside. This has become my number one go-to gift!

This little case is perfect for me! Instead of using it for an id, I use it for my library card, so there is no hassle of having to take it out to scan it. I have it in Folkloric,and the pattern is so cute! I would easily buy another one. The clear window is perfect, so I can always see it and know that it's there. The inside pocket is perfect for cash, credit/debit cards, receipts, and coins.The key ring attaches so nicely to my bag, and looks very attractive in it's sleek, silver color. I would recommend it even as a light wallet, for those who don't carry a lot. I think this is one of Vera Bradley's best products they have made!

As of recently, I sometimes don't carry a huge purse everywhere I go (as I used to). The main purpose for me carrying a purse is, 1, I've gotten used to it and 2, most importantly my credit cards, id, license, money, etc. When running quick errands, I have started using this zip id case instead, grab my keys (attached to my vera lanyard) and go! I have two of these zip id cases; slate blue and mocha rouge. They are handy little things that fit lots in it! Get one, you won't regret it. And if you do, give it to someone as a gift, they'll love it ;)

I got this in the 6 grade and I still use it today! (I'm in the 8 now) I think this is great for school if you have to wear a ID

It is great to throw in your purse or just hook on a purse/backpack. I was able to fit everything I needed. You also have very easy acces to your liscense. Instead of having to unzip it and pull it out, all you have to do is flash it to them without having to unzip and pull out.

I cannot express how handy this product is. I have it in Twirly Birds Pink and it's attached to my car keys for everyday use. I can easily store my drivers license, insurance information, credit card(s)/cash/spare change, AND my Blackberry Tour in there all at once. It's an awesome product that I highly recommend to anyone (great price, too)!

This case is soooo handy for work. I work on a military installation so I have to carry and have on hand many important cards. This case is perfect for my daily use and the visible ID window is helpful because my name tag is still visible for everyone to see. I purchased a matching lanyard to go with it, so I can carry the zip case at all times. It's not heavy around my neck. It's cute and very fashion friendly. I love it!!!!!

I love the Zip ID! It is great for when you are going shopping or just a day out and you do not feel like carry your purse around. You have just slip this in your pocket! fits many cards and even money!

I got this as a gift from my sorority!! I absolutely love it!! I can fit my room key, my ID, and my laundry card and not have to carry it on my lanyard anymore. Finally something cute to walk around in. This is the perfect gift a college girl needs!!

One of my first Vera pieces was this ID case in Java Blue! I've had it well over 2 if not 3 years now. Yes it's pretty dirty besides that it's held up so nicely! I love being able to grab my ID case (which is attached to my keys) and my phone and know I'm good to go! Definitely a lot easier when out with the ID case instead of using a purse. Can't say enough about this ID case!!

I bought the Zip ID case for college and it was such a good investment. Everything is all in one place: my school ID, license, Triple A card, cash, car keys. I was always scared that I would lose everything, but not anymore.

I have this in Hope Garden and it works perfectly for College Campuses and School Events. I use it to go shopping and to go on trips. It is so perfect!
