I just ordered a Zuca bag for school

Published

Hello all! I was reading a thread about gear for school and a few people recommended these Zuca bags. I had been looking at other bags, but these seem much better for our needs! Thought I'd share! Can't wait to get mine. :p

Opps, my bad. I was soliciting! As for the color....I think it's cute. But the brown one makes two for me...LOL! Ask and you shall receive. I said I wanted one and found two. LOL!

Oh cool! Yeah, I wouldn't have much use for two of the frames. But I do plan on getting more inserts to go with my black frame.

Right! I have a Miche handbag. It's a purse that you can change the outer shell. So my Zuca is the same concept. I love being able to change the look whenever I want!

I had never heard of Zuca until I read this thread a few weeks ago. Since then I have been trying to come up with excuses to justify spending the money for that bag. Finally, I convinced myself! I am sooooo excited for my new bag to arrive (blue frame with a gray insert)! I thank you for your post, although my wallet does not. :D

They are kind of neat, but expensive. My daughters are in figure skating and some of the other skaters use them. I like the seat built in to the top of them.

I am NOW the proud owner of a black frame, hawaiian insert that I got for $75!!!! Then I found an insert that I really loved that is retired. Well I called tje company first and they told me "Good luck finding one cause we discontinued that awhile ago." Well I found one in a store, so I bought the STORM insert...YAY!

I got my bag in the mail this week! I love it! I got the Black frame with the Stealth bag(all black) lol I kinda wanted it to fit in with other bags, so I chose a "normal" color. Although, my friend who is starting school with me bought the aqua bag with brown frame. I have to say that her bag is very cute. We both love them and I'm sure they will last a long time.

I wish they invented this back in the early 80s. Trust me, I would give my children this when they get to high school. Books are so heavy and they stunt your growth. I totally would buy this for nursing but wow...so expensive. lolz.

Me too. I remember thinking I just might die carrying books from one place to the next.

Yay, congrats! People can say what they will, but seeing these bags in person, and pulling them with books in them is a dream. And yes, they're going to last a long time! I'll have my bag long after school is over, and I'll travel with it.

My frame is black, too. And my Rebel (dark purple) insert was about as "wild" as I could bring myself to go. But I also have a friend with the aqua and brown, and you're right, it's super cute! I may branch out. Lol

Me too! Before I was a nursing student, I would always see groups of them on campus standing around, and of course, there are only like 2 benches for 20 students. A few of us will have our own seats, now.

It was in a store in Middleton, Wisconsin. It's by Madison. They were listed on the Zuca website, so I called and they had one. They took payment over the phone and mailed it to me. Right after I ordered it, a local store called me and said that they were able to get me one if I wanted. I told him, sorry, already got it elsewhere. It's such a cool insert!!!!
