Any suggestions?Try Master-Piece Japan. Pretty sure that they do one but not sure of materials.

Also look at Bailey Works. Hand made in New Hampshire. Made out of Cordura though. I have a few and they are indestructible.

Ended up picking up a GR2 34L over xmas as a travel back. The Briggs and Riley backpack's TSA approved section ended up giving me the shits as the TSA never accepted it as approved… should get a chance to give it a work out over Jan...
So far it's been the perfect bag to travel with @ airports, and use as a day bag for the office. It's also been enjoyable to use as a laundry bag as it can hold so much. Contented hopefully finally for a long time!
And another lap around the planet and still sticking by this. Bag search for travel is done and dusted!
Lost track of laps now (too many :|). Next lap starts today, same combo, still feeling perfect with it. 9 months and good as day 1. Build quality is flawless and it's been through a lot of abuse.

this has been my daily carry since 1995. Their website is awful. 253 courier. Loaded with books, makeshift cooler, gym bag and carry on. Might not be what you are looking for though.

Any suggestions?Trakke do some nice canvas messenger style bags.
Defy do both messenger and shoulder style bags in a variety of materials. They've got waxed canvas, tarpaulin, and leather. Most of them can be supplied with stabiliser straps for use on two wheels.
And Bedouin Foundry make some lovely looking bags. I really should have bought the special edition Delireis in the sample sale the other day…

Given the length and thoroughness of your search, I'm glad it worked out for you.
Are you ever in Sydney these days?

In addition to the Master-Piece bags that mentioned yesterday, Porter do the 'One Shoulder strap' which is very similar. They do loads of the bloody things too, so be surprised if you don't see one that you like! You would probably need to get one from Rakuten though as this particular style is likely to be quite hard to get outside Japan. Couple examples at links below plus there are two by Maxpedition that I threw in that are probably not what you want!

If I were you though I would seriously consider the Bedouin Foundry Genghis. I have one of the old style ones with the single buckle. Although I know you are not after a messenger, the strap on the Genghis is wide and comfortable and the bag sits high on the back.

Ive been really happy with the size and function of the UZ. Only thing id prefer is that it be made from 1000d like gorucks and maxipeds.
For me it's a weight concern. Even my Tad Lightspeed is heavy for it's size. I dont think you really sacrifice that much durability and comfort trumps all for me.

Yeah, it's all in bursts in and out.

The Lotuff Canvas Backpack in navy is currently on sale at $300, down from $650. It looks really nice.

The Carryology Store is now open in Fitzroy, Melbourne. If you are a bag addict, then I highly recommend that you avoid it.
I had a good look around this afternoon, and it's got all the usual suspects, and a few more unusual ones too. From their current line-up I liked:
The one disappointment was that they didn't have the Trakke Assynt in stock, though there were a few of the messenger bags.
The shop has its official opening on September 8th, and there should be a few more things in stock at that point.

It looks amazing! I didnt like the look of the Pequod at first but it has grown on me considerably.

It's a great shop @Anesthetist, but it could destroy my savings.
The Pequod looks interesting. However I saw on Bedouin's Tumblr that a new version of the Ottoman, the Delireis's big brother, is coming. That might be another option.
