Why it's buy-it-for-life
A reddit user's 2007 lunch bag has held up through 18 years of daily use and regular washing with strong chemicals, with no pilling or discoloration on the fabric. Other owners of the same bag report similarly long service lives, though several commenters note the brand's more recent output has declined in quality.

Vera Bradley lunch bag from 2007: 18 years of everyday use
The sewing on this bag was excellent. None of the fabric has pilled or discolored.
IMHO they outgrew their quality and reputation and are nothing to be impressed with anymore
It kept going strong as my daily lunch bag until a couple years ago
quality has gone the way of those that are too big to care to maintain that quality
