Vera Bradley Womens Cotton Large Travel Duffel Bag

needed a duffle bag for weekend trips and this bag does the trick! It is big enough to pack my outfits for an entire weekend and a few extra outfits, hoodies and sweats while also having space for all my toiletries. there are three mesh pockets on the inside and also three more pockets on the outside that I use for misc. stuff that I may need on my trip. Exactly what I was looking for and the color is super cute

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.

This is my second Vera Bradley bag and I like it even better than my first. I love that it has a strap. The strap is even long enough that you can wear it cross body style, which is the way I prefer to wear handbags, duffels, anything really. It’s large enough to hold several sets of clothing, shoes, make up bag, and anything else you would need to take on a trip for a few days.

Lo uso para mi Natacion. Todo me cabe cómodo, es hermoso, y me encanta el material.

The Vera Bradley large duffel is beautiful and sturdy. They have added the removable shoulder strap feature which is handy, and the zippers are a better quality than a few years ago. Fabrics are soft quilted cotton which is very durable and the bag fits a lot of items. Would recommend for multi uses as well as travel.

Good color, good quality!
