Is the Prada Vela backpack good for everyday use?

Yes. The recycled nylon is light and durable, and the medium size fits daily essentials. It has limited interior pockets, so small items need pouches.

Does it fit a laptop?

The medium size has room for a laptop and a few other items. Prada does not state a padded laptop sleeve, so a separate case is safer.

What is the Vela made of?

It is made of Prada's recycled nylon, the material the Vela line is built around. The fabric is light and hard-wearing.

A flap covers a drawstring, and a buckle secures the flap. Access takes a moment longer than a simple zip.

How does the Vela compare with other Prada nylon backpacks?

The Vela is the casual, drawstring-and-flap shape in the nylon line. Other Prada nylon backpacks use zip closures and more structured shapes.

Is it a men's or women's backpack?

Prada presents the Vela as a unisex style. The medium size and casual shape suit either.

About the Prada Vela Medium Recycled Nylon Backpack

The Prada Vela is a medium backpack in Prada's recycled nylon, the fabric the line is known for. It closes with a flap over a drawstring, secured by a buckle, and carries the enameled triangle logo. It suits someone who wants a designer backpack that reads as casual rather than formal, and it competes with nylon backpacks from other luxury houses on name and finish rather than on organization. Owners of Prada nylon generally praise its light weight and durability; the trade-offs are few interior pockets and a fabric that shows scuffs.
