How long are the straps? Are they long enough to carry on your shoulder comfortably?Thanks!

They're about 26" long. I carried mine on my shoulder comfortably. I used it as my carry-on when I flew earlier this summer. I was able to fit my regular purse inside of it.

Straps have 12 in drop. I can place on my shoulder and the bottom is even with my wrist. I can then support the bottom of the bag comfortably with my hand. I hope this helps. I do love my bag for toting my grand daughters things to swimming class.

Each strap measures 24" long. I just tried carrying it on my shoulder and found that it is fine if the top of the bag is snugly closed. If the bag is full and open to its fullest extent on the top, carrying it over the shoulder would probably not be comfortable. The bag is not fabric - it is made of some kind of plastic - or "plastic polyester." I really like the design - and I got it for a probable one-time use for a convention I am going to. It has a heavy zipper in the top. I really like it for what I plan to use it for. I just read the other three comments - and found that one person's bag is still going strong over 6 months of use . . . that's great to know! Maybe I'll go to another convention! : ) Each strap measures 24" long. I just tried carrying it on my shoulder and found that it is fine if the top of the bag is snugly closed.

More like hand bag length. On your shoulder would be more under your arm than waist length. Hope that helps.

They are long enough to loop under your arm, but not a shoulder strap length..my bag is still going strong over 6 months of use!

I'm not sure of the length, but yes it is comfortable on the shoulder. Isn't a crossbody though.

I carried this on my shoulder for 2 trips with no problems. I love this bag!

Yes, I love these bags. They are very sturdy and it makes it so much easier that I can carry them with straps over my shoulder. I fill them to the max and carry them over my shoulder. It makes it easier to carry them over my shoulder when they are heavy. I've not had any problems with them falling off my shoulders.

i don't know the length but the bag is not very big. it could fit over the shoulder comfortably if you are small

Too heavy to strap to your backpack for hiking any long distance but no problem throwing over your shoulder to carry down to the beach. I usually carry two over my shoulder along with a cooler, beach bag and snorkel stuff and the chairs are the easiest part of the load because of the padded straps. If you are only carrying one chair over your shoulder it is a breeze.

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.

Handles wrap around the bag. Can't tell about the shoulder strap. It is tucked under the bottom part of the bag. I'm not sure what you plan to carry but all the straps seem to be sturdy and strong. Should easily support up to 40 lbs.

I couldn't, the handles are long for easy over the shoulder, but not long enough to be cross body on an adult.But that being said, 1) they have a little felt pad where they hit the shoulder, so they stay on shoulders well, and 2) it's easy to have as many as three full bags on the same shoulder without impeding shoulder movement.

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.

The center section, which goes over the shoulder, is padded and about an inch-and-a-half wide. Each end is just regular nylon strap material about a half inch wide, maybe six inches long. It's kind of unusual until you get used to it.

In my experience, the straps allow for comfortable carrying over the shoulder only when half to two-thirds full. The more laundry packed in, the wider the bag (which easily accommodates lots like 14 lbs) and the further the straps are so it's a bit tough to get over the shoulder. Hope that helps!

No. They handles are small and for carrying in your hand. But, the shoulder strap is adjustable to be cross body or just over your shoulder.

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

No, these straps are not padded. They are fairly thick, not uncomfortable, but not padded.

If you are asking about the straps, the will work for you. It is a great backpack, I've never have problems with it. I'm 6'2" by the way.

No. They are not long, but very short. They are like light, thin ribbons. They are only good enough for thumb/flash drives. You can barely get them over your head to go around your neck. I do not recommend them for anything. For a camera, you would need a full-size strap designed for it.

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.

Quite honestly, I use the hand grips because I find all shoulder straps made from this fabric to be slippery. But the shoulder strap is quite long, adjustable on both sides of the padded portion, and about 1 1/2 inches wide. The padded portion is 10-12 inches long and is in the center of the overall strap, and is slightly curved; the padding is maybe 3/8" thick. I take a commuter train and two subways to work, and this works well for me. Hope this helps!
