First of all, I am a senior citizen and am reviewing this canvas tote bag with a view toward its usability as such. I find other canvas tote bags listed as small and about 9 inches in length just a bit too small and bulging for what I usually carry inside. Large canvas tote bags usually around 21 inches long are way too big and wieldy for me to carry around. And while this canvas tote bag wasn't listed as medium sized, at 12.99 inches long, I found it like Goldilocks said, just right.Although this canvas tote bag came with a shoulder strap, I did not attach it. Bags with shoulder straps fall off my shoulder all the time, and I wouldn't wear a bag this thick cross body style. I don't need the extra bulk. :) So the short, attached carrying handles are just the right length for my liking. Longer handles like on some bags allow the tote to bang into the side of my leg when walking which is a pain. Literally!I always carry a water bottle when out and about, and this tote fits mine perfectly. And the outside pocket next to it holds my phone nicely where I can get at it easily without having to go inside the bag. The nice long outside pocket on the opposite side is perfect for keeping tissues handy. I also like that it has a strong magnetic, quick release closure for the middle section instead of a zipper which takes me forever to get into. I just took it on its first outing to the bank, and it passed with flying colors. I give it an A+.
