5 out of 5 starsThis bag is really well made and the design is great for airplane trip. I needed the one with trolly sleeve but ordered wrong one by mistake. Linda was so kindly replaced to the one with sleeve. Excellent customer service and great bag!!

5 out of 5 starsI bought this bag for my adult daughter who travels a decent amount. On her wish list, she requested a bag that was big enough to hold laptop, water bottle, books but that felt less like a backpack and could convert to a purse...a unicorn she thought didn't exist. This checks all those boxes and more. In her words, she found the perfect bag she didn't know existed. Attractive and sturdy, and Linda's responsiveness to questions was excellent.

5 out of 5 starsI purchased the wrong size bag, and Linda was so wonderful and easy to work with to do an exchange and to make sure I had the bag in time for upcoming travel! I absolutely love the bag - it's the perfect size for travel or as a laptop bag. It's also easy to transition from a shoulder bag to a backpack. I was worried that this size would be awkwardly big as a shoulder bag, but it isn't at all for me. Highly, highly recommend!

5 out of 5 starsBeautiful, high-quality bag. I gave it as a gift; the recipient loved it and found it both attractive and functional while they traveled. Love that it has a zip-top closure and the two different options for carrying as well as a luggage sleeve (that last feature was key for me in this purchase). LOVE that something this functional and beautiful is also vegan. Will be sure to review the options on this page again in the future when I need new bags.

Frequently asked questions
What does the inside of the bag look like?
Canopy Verde bags are designed to be very user friendly with lots of pockets. The interior of the medium to large bags generally look the same. This includes the totes, larger crossbody bags, backpacks, and weekenders.
The inside of the bag has a bright orange lining with one zippered pocket for valuables and two open pockets for sunglasses, keys, etc.
What is vegan leather? How does it wear over time?
Our vegan leather is made with polyurethane, which is better for the environment than other substances like PVC. Polyurethane uses fewer solvents and chemicals in processing compared to PVC or leather. Furthermore, PVC leaches toxins into the environment and does not biodegrade.
We use a high quality vegan leather that wears well. Many customers report back that their bags remain in good condition after extended use.
What makes Canopy Verde bags eco friendly?
For our canvas bags, we use organic cotton certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), a trusted leader in the industry. This means we know with 100% confidence that our organic cotton does not have the toxic pesticides and fertilizers that are common in conventionally grown cotton.
We thought that using conventional, chemically-processed dyes on organic cotton would defeat the purpose of going organic. So all the dyes used in our canvas collection are chemical free and earth friendly. And using PVC-free vegan leather as opposed to animal leather leaves a smaller carbon footprint.
How do I care for my Canopy Verde bag?
For any dirt or dust that may have accumulated on the surface of the cotton canvas, scrub gently with a soft bristle brush, water, and a dab of detergent. For heavier stains like chocolate, rubbing alcohol can be very effective! Use a soft brush and scrub gently until the stain is removed.
Do not submerge the bag in water or throw it in the washer - this may cause the colored fabric to bleed and result in the bag losing its distinctive shape!
You can also spray a coat of Scotchgard Fabric Protector over the canvas to keep it looking fresh and new.
Wholesale availability
All our products are available for wholesale. If you are interested in a wholesale order, please contact linda@canopyverde.com for a link to our linesheet.
Gift wrapping and packaging
If you are buying a Canopy Verde bag as a gift (so thoughtful of you!), we can gift wrap the item and include a blank note. If you have specific requests, please convo me.
We also sell gift certificates!
Are Canopy Verde bags water resistant?
Our vegan leather bags are water resistant and can be cleaned with a wet cloth or wipe. With our canvas and vegan leather styles, a little water will not hurt the bag, but carrying it in a torrential downpour is not recommended!
Can the Greenpoint backpack fit a 15" laptop?
This style works best with laptops that are smaller than 14" in width (not screen size) because with any laptops over 14" wide, the top of the bag won't fold over neatly. If used as a tote though, the bag can comfortably hold laptops up to 16" wide.
