Yes, the shoulder strap is both adjustable and detachable.

How many interior pockets does the bag have?

Can this bag be used as a carry-on for flights?

The dimensions are generous, often suitable for carry-on, but it's recommended to verify with your specific airline's regulations.

How should I clean the leather bag?

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Gently rub a graphite pencil tip or a bit of beeswax along the teeth of the zipper. Move the zipper back and forth to loosen it. Avoid using oils or lubricants not designed for zippers.

Leather appears dry or cracked

Apply a suitable leather conditioner to the affected areas according to the product instructions. Ensure you are conditioning the bag regularly, especially in dry climates.

Shoulder strap adjustment is difficult

Ensure the buckle mechanism is clean and free of debris. If it continues to be stiff, a small amount of leather conditioner applied to the strap near the buckle might help, but use sparingly.

Scuff marks on the leather

For minor scuffs, try buffing the area with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, a leather repair balm or conditioner specifically designed for cowhide may be effective. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
