Frequently asked questions about shoulder bags

What length strap for a shoulder bag?

Worn across the body, the bag falls to hip height; worn on the shoulder, it reaches the waist. An adjustable strap works for both: the right length can be adjusted over a winter coat.

Can a shoulder bag hold a tablet?

Yes, as long as you check the internal dimensions on the product page against those of the tablet. A padded compartment protects the screen from shocks.

Shoulder bag or document bag: what's the difference?

The document bag, often flatter and rectangular, is mostly worn by men for paperwork; the shoulder bag refers to any bag with a long strap. The document bag looks more formal in the office.

Which shoulder bag for travelling?

A small zipped bag, worn in front for the passport, phone and bank card. In crowded places, a closure against the body deters pickpockets.

How to stop the strap from slipping off the shoulder?

Wear the bag across the body, or choose a wide, slightly non-slip strap. A shortened strap sits better on the shoulder than a long one.
