Vera Bradley Women's Performance Twill Compact Weekender Travel Bag, Tranquil Gray, One Size

I absolutely love this travel bag. I have been searching for a perfect small duffel/travel bag and finally found it! This bag checks so many boxes. It’s the perfect size, not too large but holds a ton. It’s a great neutral color. I get tired of bags with prints, and sometimes they look weird with my outfit, especially if I’m wearing a top or bottom with a different print. This bag is a beautiful silver grey color that goes with everything. It has great pockets, a luggage strap, water bottle holder, and it’s waterproof. I can’t recommend this baby enough.

I change clothes after work and everything fits in it so I just carry one bag now. Love the design too!

Perfect. Just what I was looking for. Nice looking bag too!

This Vera Bradley Women's Performance Twill Large Travel Duffel Bag is perfect for commuting and traveling for short trips. It's perfect as a gym bag, commuter bag, or used as a weekender. For a duffel style bag, it can hold a surprising amount of items in its very roomy interior.I also personally love the soft feel of the quilted exterior, which doesn't scuff easily and is super durable. There's several little pouches on the sides and front of it to add small items to this, where you can easily reach in to grab them while you're on the go, in addition to front zippered pockets.The zippers are excellent quality and very sturdy, and it's super easy to clean. Even though it's just a basic black color, the silver zippers are extra shiny (like chrome) and really stand out for contrast, and the quilted look gives it a more stylish flair. It's even more chic and stylish when it is unzipped, and you get peeks of the pretty floral liner inside. The design is very tasteful, sleek, and on trend.It holds everything securely while you are on the go, and I like that there's a removable shoulder strap you can use, or you can simply carry it by hand. At the same time, I love that it is so light weight despite its generous size, as well as water repellent if you get caught out in the elements.It's also easy to use in conjunction with wheel-away luggage while traveling, thanks to the trolley sleeve that you can pull a telescoping handle through (so it can sit on top of the other lugging securely while you zoom through an airport or what-have-you). As I travel often, I love all bags that include this small but very important detail.Everything about this is incredibly well-crafted and nicely designed, and despite it being able to carry a LOT, it's not too oversized or bulky for me to handle while on the go. It's built to last, and I really love everything about it - it certainly gets two thumbs up from me!

Bag is much smaller than expected. This bag is about the size of a book bag

The trolley sleeve is very important to us. Prior to a plane trip last month, we purchased 5 Vera Bradley pieces.One was a mid size duffel type called the Weekender. Similar to but larger than this bag. It had a trolley sleeve, but was really too big for the Vera Bradley Carry-On rolling suitcase. Fortunately, we also purchased the mid sized Campus Back Pack with a trolley sleeve and it fit perfectly. We were on a Delta flight and both the Back Pack and rolling Carry On were acceptable per person. The trolley sleeve makes traveling so much easier. The top bag doesn't shift and slip to the side.This duffel is also a perfect size to go on top of a Carry On. The black color is really sharp looking in person. Much richer than I expected it to look. The capacity of this bag looks similar to that of our mid sized Back-Pack, but the configuration is entirely different. Our purchased bags are in the new Seascape pattern. This black quilted pattern looks much richer. FYI. We returned the mid sized Weekend bag.I do prefer YKK zippers, but these work well.

this product was delivered to me on feb 8th. today is march 11 and the strap has broken. i work nightshift at a hospital so I had no time to go through the return process lastnight. just got off and its 7am and now “yesterday was the cut off for returns” I am so frustrated that i spent over $100 on this bag and it has already broken. very unhappy.

Good size travel duffel. Has mesh interior slip pockets and two outside zip compartments. The back has a luggage handle sleeve too and it comes with a removable shoulder strap. The bottom has a sleeve inside that has a thin piece of plastic underneath to help give the bottom of the bag more structure and support to stand upright.The design of the lining is beautiful and the exterior quilt stitching is nice as well but, being a solid black, it attracts a lot of lint. If that’s not the look you’re going for then I suggest getting the bag in a print design instead of a solid color.I tested the water repellent aspect by running it under my faucet and it actually does work. It can still get soaked if it gets wet enough but is good at repelling small amounts of water.
