Vera Bradley Womens Cotton Large Travel Duffel Bag

Love this bag as a weekend or week long get away to tote all my items. The bag is so beautiful in person, better than the picture. I also bought the make up bag and it is equally perfect!

Beautiful bag. Pattern is gorgeous. Bag is sturdy and large

I purchased a large Vera Bradley travel duffel some years ago (probably around 10), and it has been my go-to weekend and short trip bag. I found this pattern on VB.com and thought I would search Amazon; lo and behold a few pieces in this pattern are regularly on sale. I initially thought this was slightly smaller than my older duffel. It seems to be the same size, if not a 1/4-1/2 slimmer all around, and I attribute that to the age of my first duffel. Notable improvements on the new bag are slip pockets on both ends, vs. only one. Long padded shouler strap (and YES this does come with one), vs. not even a hook to add one on the old. Slip and a zip pocket on the side, vs. no side pocket. Three mesh slip pockets on the inside, vs. no inside pockets on the old. Two top zippers on new duffel to accommodate left or right hand zip, vs.only one. The bottom of the new duffel is gusseted all the way around, where the old bag has gusseting on each end. Looks like only a different means to give it structure. I love that VB has added a shoulder strap option, because my old bag will not stay on my shoulder. Usually at least one falls off, or both, which usually messes up my entire trip from the car to my destination when the bag falls to my elbow. The only note I will make about perceived negative change is the carry handle does not wrap around the whole bag, It stops at the bottom gusset stitch on each side. I think this could, over time, weaken the structure and the carry handle fray off as it gets older under heavy use. Overall, excited to be adding TWO new Java Navy Camo pieces (Utility Travel Tote is the other) for the first time in years. Other commenters have said VB is not on the bag anywhere. There is a tag inside. This is not a knock-off. To stay in business, companies have to cut corners somewhere to reduce costs. I would say plain grosgrain zipper tags help offset. My old duffel is still in great shape. Thought about donating it, but I believe I will keep it! VB does not miss, IMO.

I absolutely love this bag. The straps make it easy to carry as they leave room to stuff the bag full and be able to throw the straps over your shoulder. The larger strap is also very convenient and comfortable when carrying. I knew I wanted this specific style of bag, and didnt cary too much about the color or design- but I really love the color and style. Very unique and pretty. The bag is also considered a Large and I believe there is an Extra Large (but that does not come with the larger strap) but this Large is HUGE!!! Love this bag sooo much.

I had been needing a new travel duffel (rest in peace, old no-name duffel with a broken zipper) when I saw these were on sale. I am so glad I did: I LOVE IT. It is definitely a Vera Bradley ( the lining is so pretty) and has sufficient little pockets inside and out for the odds and ends every seasoned traveler knows they need to pack (and find without completely unpacking). The purple comes with a shoulder strap (a nice touch). It’s my Christmas present to me, so while I don’t plan to travel during the covid holidays, I’ll be making those dreams come true next year with my gorgeous new VB travel bag.

We had a Vera Bradley bag like this one for a decade and its still going strong, so we wanted to purchase another one for our second daughter. This bag is really stunning. I love the print. It seems to be well-made, though I do feel the material is thinner than the original bag we bought so long ago. I hope the quality hasnt diminished... I supposed time will tell it. Good sized bag though. It will do.

We will see how durable will be since it’s cotton made

This bag is a gray carry-on or weekend getaway bag. Lots of pockets, plenty of space. Highly recommend

My daughter loves it! She can throw everything it for overnight sleepover, traveling, etc. Also, machine washable and roomy bag.

It’s the perfect size to pack all the necessities AND it is gorgeous!! Lots of pockets and straps to carry it multiple ways.
