Is this bag meant to wear/fit over your shoulder? How comfortable?

Yes it is. I wear this bag every day. I use it for riding the bus. The only problem with bag is it doesn't have a handle to grab like the Max Expedition. Bag is comfortable.

It fits over your shoulder. Your head and arm go through the strap. It's ver comfortable. I wear it hiking.

Well it depends if you're the type who likes to cover up your head when sleeping then it would prob be too tight. But if you're like me & don't zip up over your head then u will be fine. It's top quality bag & by far the warmest I've ever used. Just make sure u have pad to put under u for extra protection from cold ground.

Yes, I am 5'4", and it is very comfortable over my shoulder. Even my husband over 6' can use the handles over his shoulder. It would almost be awkward to hold this bag in hand, as it is big, but can also be carried over your forearm.

No, it does not have a shoulder strap. Even though the other answers say it would fit on your shoulder, that depends on your weight. I am full figured and while I could put it over my shoulder the top of the bag would be stuffed into my arm pit and I would never carry it that way. The handle is meant to carry in your hand or over your forearm.

Mine does, comfortably...... Unless you have an over-lenght shaft. then it might be close. Really like this travel bag... Exceptiona!!! better that the hard bag that I had that the latches and wheels broke after 3 uses... Hit em straight...

Yes the shoulder padding is sufficient. I don't use it every day but I've been very satisfied with this bag as my choice for a non-leather bag.

Based on mine, the shoulder strap is pretty long. You could wear it low on your hip or thigh if you wanted. Of course, it's really meant to hang by your side and not on your back.

I would say if it isn't packed full it could fit on your shoulder but it is snug up in your armpit, not uncomfortably but more snug than a purse would be. It's really meant more to be carried by hand or in the crook of your elbow

Not adjustable, just a plain black strap long enough to carry it over your shoulder. Nice bag!

Truthfully, I bought several Built bags at the same time so have not used this one, but plan to this fall. I just tried putting the straps over my shoulder and while I could get them on the shoulder, it was tight and I doubt I would do it often. The bag is quite large--bigger than I expected when ordering, but I like the style for the fall and winter. As mentioned, I have two other Built computer bags in more traditional briefcase styles. Hope this is of some help to you.

Strap is about 50 inches but cinches up to 26 and fits over my shoulder. I really like this bag and use it every work day! I get lots of compliments on it! Hope this helps.

As someone that can't stand sleeping in mummy bags, my philosophy is that no bag is to wide or big. That said, I'm 6'1" and 250 lbs and this bag is extremely comfortable for me; however it is a big bag and may be overkill for you particularly in length. You may want to see if they have a short version to save on bulk when stored. I love this bag and am always warm (only had it down to 22 degrees and was pretty comfy.)

I think you would be OK, but agree that the height is critical. I have found that the shoulder straps stitching could be better.. all in all, not a bad bag..

No. The bag will not be too big. You should be fine, if you are at an average weight.

Yes, there is a little bit of padding. Considering the padding and the width of the shoulder straps, even when the bag is fully loaded with all your stuff, you will still feel quite comfortable. I've had the bag for about a month now, I'm a high school teacher and I load that bag up! It is hands down, the best bag I've ever had! Buy it! :)
