Abstract
A piece of baggage is provided with a pack portion having a strap with end portions that can be adjusted to extend horizontally from the sides of the pack portion or, alternatively, upwardly from the pack portion. When the strap ends are oriented extending horizontally from the pack portion, the piece of baggage can be worn as a conventional lumbar pack. When the strap ends are oriented to extend upwardly from the pack portion, the piece of baggage can be supported from a person's shoulder in a comfortable manner similar to a conventional shoulder bag.
