Abstract
Rattan bag handicraft products in Indonesia have various shapes and sizes of bag straps. One type of bag strap is a shoulder bag strap made from rattan. Rattan bag straps are permanent in size on the bag product. This causes the rattan shoulder bag strap to be inflexible enough to be lengthened or shortened according to the user^s height. The aim of this research is to design a standard size for ergonomic rattan shoulder bag straps for strap length for small, medium and large users in Indonesia. The method in this research uses calculations from the use of Indonesian anthropometric data, gender of women aged 17-45 years. The contribution of this research to the rattan handicraft industry in Indonesia is to provide a standard recommendation for the length of rattan shoulder bag straps for users in Indonesia. The results of this research show that the length of a rattan shoulder bag strap for small users is 60 cm, for medium size 85 cm and for large size 100 cm.
