Luggage Bags and Packs

Any recommendations for full veg tan messenger bag?

I'm also looking for a recommendation, but for a duffel bag.
I'm leaning Duluth pack sportsmen duffel right now, with a Filson small duffel a close second. I already have a couple other Duluth pack bags and they've been rock solid. Additionally, I'm in MN so supporting a local company is a plus.
Any other's I should be aware of in the same general canvas and leather style?

The Filson is a beast but very slouchy and smells strongly of the treatment wax. Mine is 8+ years old and still makes everything I put in it a little waxy and fragrant

@DenimMaven Defy do a few leather messenger type bags. They haven't got any natural, vegetable tanned ones listed, but they've got a relationship with Horween so I'm sure you could ask them to get some natural Essex in. The Abe Lincoln leather is due to make a comeback in the next few months.
This is the Recon in oxblood.
And the Workcase in black.
@Segovia Defy also do duffel bags in canvas. The R&R Weekender in desert tan.
And the Ultimate Overnighter in grey.
They're also available in other colours (olive green and brown have just featured on their Instagram feed), leather, and Cordura. I've got a VerBockel coming in the next couple of weeks, so can report back then.
