OOH, mine arrived damaged and it was not made as a shoulder bag..I loved it, but it seemed to catch white lint in the inside and outside and this one had messed up stiches in the lining and looked worn. For a bag that was older and full price. I have to be sure.. no satchel is made for the shoulder..so you have to get used to that weight in your hand...my back is not going to love that...so I had to return it anyway...now thinking about it...Thanks for the info.If you are not wearing a jacket it will go over the shoulder, but it was not designed to be a over shoulder bag! It's about half the weight of a legacy satchel so it's not heavy at all! Get the chocolate one! it's so much nicer than the Khaki
