I have a Traben Phoenix 5 string, which is also quite heavy. I just ordered this today. https://www.amazon.com/Planet-Waves-Guitar-Strap-Shoulder/dp/B000TGSM6E#immersive-view_1527080772856
Nice bag, however it's certainly style over function there. Put any sort of weight in that bag and that strap will be eating into your shoulder if just wearing a t-shirt/shirt. I'd invest in a strap cushion to avoid that. There's also the issue you'll be rotating shoulders if you're doing any serious length of travel as your neck will start to hurt. I travel the world for a living and I made a mistake of a courier style bag and have since moved to a full on backpack (the Sanction) which is waterproof and very comfortable and stylish and roomy. With that said, ignore everything I just said if it's just going to be used for house to car <-> car to office. That's just my two cents.
We took a couple of WDW trips last year. The first one we started with a backpack. It was definitely doable, but kind of a pain. We quickly figured out that traveling lighter was better. This messenger bag with this strap pad wound up being perfect! Big enough to carry plenty of snacks and camera/phone batteries etc, but small and light enough to not be too cumbersome.
Bonus Tip: These water bottles combined with some super cheap D-rings from Harbor Freight worked great for us.
I was thinking about this strap pad but maybe this sheepskin pad would work better.
