I like your bag a lot. It looks like the one I carried for seven years, from High School's last years and through all medical school. It was very similar, OD canvas my mother washed with chlorine, full with artwork I made myself (mainly Hard Rock and Heavy Metal group logos) and pins of Deep Purple. If I find it I'll post a pic. Now I always carry Victorinox bags.
Tilley shoulder bag these days. Canvas with leather trim and reinforcements. Decently made though I may get a handle added like an old worn Beaver canoe bag I have.Yesterday it did a cottage trip with phone, rope, snacks, drink, knife, wallet, glasses, etc. Other times it's simply equipped to run errands. Carried one since high school which was 40 years ago. Standard part of my life.
That looks excellent mate.

Now I always carry Victorinox bags.I'd love to see a picture of that.I carry an old black repo of a German mountain pack - very worn now but I can get everything I need for a day out in it. I've had it about 15 years now
This used to be my EDC and around the farm bag. It's a storm spotting bag these days with binos, scanner, camera, cell. weather field guide and note pad. Had it about 25 years. It's some kind of old European gas mask or bread bag. About 20 years ago, I had my leather guy put an AK sling on it as a shoulder strap...it's riveted into the leather bottom. Although, suffering from dry rot in spots, it still has a lot of life left.(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)
I've carried this backpack to and from work with me everyday for over 10 years. http://www.ful.com/details.cfm?name=OvertonI didn't think it would last this long but it still looks mostly new. I have a couple single strap messenger bags for my laptop, art supplies and a bug out bag but since the backpack has held up I stuck with it.
I posted this earlier. I got into the habit when my kids were young, now it's just an everyday thing. I have several...
Id love to se a pic of both Kkokkolis and your bag
