Q: Is this machine washable?

Q: What color is the inside of the bag and is it big enough to hold all of my school supplies like about five folders a binder a Chromebook notebook, pencil case cases and stuff like??

submitted by Jianna - 3 months ago

  • A: Hi Jianna! The color of the inside of the bag is called oyster mushroom which is a white with a cool gray undertone. The Essential backpack is 11.5" w x 15.0" h x 6.5" d which would most likely be too small for your needs. We recommend the Essential Large Backpack which is 12.0" w x 17.0" h x 7.0" d or the Essential XL Backpack which is 13.0" w x 17.0" h x 12.5" d to carry all of your items.

Q: Does it come with luggage sleeve to attach to your carryon?

submitted by E - 5 months ago

    Perfect sized backpack for senior citizens!

    I wish the outside pockets on the side were deeper with elastic. The room inside is everything I wanted and I especially like the zippered front compartment.

    Like I like the color in the material and stuff, but I didn’t expect it to be so small so if it’s so small, you should write a kids backpack

    Love the quality!

    Vera Bradley items never disappoint. I have this pattern in multiple bags. It's a little bigger than I had thought it would be but for the sale price, I kept it and ordered a smaller one as well :)
