CITY HOBO EW is said to have two straps; does that mean you choose which one to attach?
The component list states two straps, long and short, so it is hard to tell whether one is given as an extra spare or meant to be used alternately. How to attach the straps cannot be pictured from the description alone.
Two straps of different lengths are included together, and it is a configuration where you switch them by removing and attaching the straps to and from the O-rings on the body.
A detachable strap refers to a strap that can be taken off and attached to the main body, and an O-ring refers to a round metal ring shaped like the alphabet letter O. MARGESHERWOOD's notation of '2 straps' indicated on the CITY HOBO EW is the result of these two things combined.
There are two confirmed facts about the straps. One is the configuration: one long strap and one short strap are included together with one bag body, both in detachable form[1]. The other is the method: you can replace the strap with another one or take it off completely through the O-ring ornamentation attached to the body[2].
Therefore, the number two is closer to an option rather than a spare. It is used by deciding on that day whether to drape it long over the shoulder or fit it short and carry it close under the arm, while setting the other one aside. Generally, straps that hook onto rings can be swapped with other straps as long as the hooks match, but straps thicker than the ring width will not catch, so if you plan to use another strap with it, it is better to compare the hook shape and width first.
Whether both straps can be hooked simultaneously, the length of each strap, and the hook specifications have not yet been confirmed.
