Use this for festivals and its a normal size book bag. I'm a 20 year old 5'5 normal build chick and it fit me but the straps were short which caused them to kind of jab into my arms. It sounds worse than it actually was. All in all if you're buying it last minute for a fest then go for it (it was the best prime option) but if you have time to order another one then I would. If you're getting it for a kid then its a great bag!
