Luggage Bags and Packs

I had a Timbuk2 as my go to back for around 5 years. Never had any problems with it, aside from it not being waterproof (the reason I upgraded).
Having said that, my Mission Workshop bag is definitely a level above what Timbuk2 has to offer. The zippers, other hardware, and materials are all an improvement from the bag I had…

So, I need a new bag, I'm looking at this: http://killspencer.com/device/macbook-pro-17/korean-war-era-business-messenger.html
Anyone got any suggestions for a similarly hardy messenger?

You're in Condor looking at Pistas and Mission Workshop stuff. Undoubtedly a Forumenger
Indeed, and given how wet it was on my evening commute on Friday, I'm now in real need of a waterproof rucksack, since my current one no longer is
Needs to be able to swallow a laptop, change of clothes and a pair of shoes, be comfortable, and totally waterproof. The shortlist at the moment is:-
- Kriega R35
- MissionWorkshop Rambler
Any other suggestions would be welcome

A goruck bag would fit the bill well, they have several sizes I'm sure one would work out well, great for carrying a laptop, ultra tough, I don't know I'd characterize them as completely waterproof but for all intents and purposes they are, unless you're gonna submerge them. I love mine and they're made by good people

I've got a Timbuk2, but recently switched back to a rucksack, and tbh I prefer it, more comfortable.

Thanks jacoavlu, really like the GR1, ticks all the boxes

I've got one of Scott's early messenger bags (http://www.blackrainbowproject.co.uk/) and it's a fucking beast. I know he's attempting to ramp up production a bit now he's moved to new premises and I seem to remember him talking about a backpack.

Seventy Eight Percent do some very nice bags.

Has anyone in the UK bought a Goruck recently? Any hints for navigating the tax/handling charges which will hit? No problem paying for the bag but I have real beef with the ridiculous duty costs. (Yes I've already mailed Goruck themselves and they have no strategy they can offer…)

I can see a "Whats In Your Bag" thread, but no thread just for bags, so…...
I'm having one of these if I have to sell a kidney to get it.

My new to me bag:
The IHE-01 has replaced my Goruck GR1 as my work bag. The GR1 while very nice is too big for my everyday needs.
