Would I have to carry this bag in my hand or could I put those straps over one shoulder and carry like a tote?

Strap is only 16" long measured from where it attaches to the bag on the left to where it attaches on the right. If you are a small person you might be able to put it over your shoulder, but it would be up close under your arm. I can put it over my forearm and cary it at my elbow, but not quite over my shoulder.

Caitlin, The straps are pretty short. I do not believe it would work as an over the shoulder bag. Sorry I could not give a more positive response. It is still a really neat bag!!! Wanda

Caitlin, it would be best to carry in hand. The straps are not long enough to carry like a tote comfortably.

I would have to say the handles are more for your hand. Would be nice if it had adjustable strap!

Yes use hand to hold ..not on shoulder .. I love it .. I feel comfortable separate between purse and lunch bag ... it fit what I need for my work

Carry in your hand, not long enough to strap over the shoulder. Love this bag though, holds allot of stuff!!

Yes, the straps are long enough to carry them on your shoulder. The bags are very roomy, well constructed and easy to wash. I am so glad I bought mine!

I don't carry it around because of its awkward shape. Its so light you certainly could, but awkward when I typically have my laptop, a gym bag, and a book bag. If your backpack is not stuffed you could probably do it!The back piece easily cones off which would make it less bulky for transport.

it can roll or be carried by handle - too big for a shoulder strap in my opinion

I can put it over my shoulder but I don't think it was designed for that. It's a little tight bit doable. I carry it like that in and out of my office but probably wouldn't go any further than that.

Like over the head cross body? No the straps are not long enough. I carry it like a tote bag on my shoulder. It is suprisingly comfortable and doesn't slip off my shoulder.

Its more like a handle, too short to be a shoulder strap. There is a clip to attach to backpack or belt or you can use a carabeiner.

No. Nothing like that. However, like the other guy says, it's a highly recommend bag I use it everyday. In fact it's right next to me as I respond to your question. You might be able to use one or both of the handles to go around the luggage handle bar. Or maybe you can have a loop added on by a good tailor. My point is, this bag is so worth buying that I would try to find a way be to make it what you want it to be.

Mine only came with one strap--but a place to hook two straps, my guess is that it's for either the right or left shoulder carry, but not two straps like a book bag. it's not a problem for me, I use the hand strap.

you can carry both handles in one hand, or hook a single shoulder strap to both bag and carry them, but the two bags dont attach/affix to one another.

Probably don't want to. A co-worker has one similar and his bag is loose, kind of wobbly... Its from caring too many things in it. Its a small, tight little bag for just the small stuff. I carry my MacBook Pro 13", iPad 10", external HD, Mouse and a few styluses. Anything more is too much.

The handles on the bag itself are the size to carry hand as otherwise trying to have it on your shoulder are uncomfortable. The long shoulder strap is the best option for use for on the shoulder or as a cross-body/messenger style. Hope that helps!

I use it as a cross body (the bag stays in my back). And yes, you can use it hanging on a single shoulder too, but I prefer to cross it in my back because that leaves my hands free

I use it as a handbag. Its just big enough for my laptop and one book. If you were to use the strap it would be just like a laptop bag. I love mine!

The bag is super small. We slung it over one shoulder to carry. It's very easy to carry.

The strap that is shown is the one that I remember. It was a gift so I can't check on it. You can use the handle or the strap to carry it. It can be very heavy depending on what you put in it. My friend can often use it to travel. He likes the separate compartment for wet clothes so that it doesn't get everything in the bag damp. Just remember to take it out :).

The straps are long enough to go over your shoulder. Like long purse straps but more heavy duty. I am 5'6" and if I hold the straps in my hand the bag is close to the ground but does not touch or drag. It's close, maybe have a few inches clearance.
