Recommendations for a Backpack with Waterfield-like quality

[schester]

I'm a big fan of sfbags.com, the Waterfield gear. Far as I know though there are no Waterfield backpacks. I'm looking at getting a backpack that would hold an X220 thinkpad among numerous other thing.

Anyone have any recommendations on a good brand I can look at it? I'd buy a Waterfield if they had backpacks, so it would be great to find a similar manufacturer that makes backpacks.

thanks

Have an look at Booq bags. Been using them for ages and they are really well made.

I don't know if Timbuk2 makes backpacks, but I have a Timbuk2 messenger and it's very well-made.

That said, my black Jansport and laptop sleeve have never gone wrong.
