I buy this bag to use for my school tool . I have to carry it long distance . the shoulder strap be place completely wrong . it attach right under the handle , not on the side of the bag . this create too much downward pull on the center of bag and a uneven distribution of weight over the strap . because the bag be triangular when it be close , and the strap be attach at the very top , it also make it cumbersome to carry -- because the wide base of the bag be press against you body , but the strap be not anchor there also . also , the padded element on the strap be not movable or removable . I find -lrb- as a lady -rrb- , the padding be annoying and too big for my shoulder . I be very dissapointed , as otherwise , it be a great bag . since I be a student in accessory design , I be go to add my own d-rings\/strap tether on the side of the bag , and hope that they hold . I be editing to add : I order this bag in late January and it arrive in 3 day with Amazon prime -lrb- should have be 2 day , but I do not experience the long wait other be have -rrb- .
