I love Rick Steves products, but this turned out to be disappointing because the shoulder straps are too small. The size, construction and organization of the bag are perfect for what I'm looking for in a day pack for traveling, but it was very difficult to put both straps on while I was only wearing a t-shirt. I"m a 5'11", 190lb guy, fairly average. I have to have the straps completely extended to get the pack on with difficulty over a shirt. It would be too difficult and cumbersome for regular use while traveling, especially if I tried to put it on over a fleece sweatshirt or light jacket.

I'll look for a larger Rick Steves bag like this, but returning this one.
