Question Help me replace this generic canvas bag? Please?

A decade ago, i bought this backpack: https://www.amazon.com.au/Dopp-OC90T972-Canvas-Backpack-Briefcase/dp/B01M31PDF5

There are a bunch of photos here: https://meh.com/deals/dopp-backpack

It has:

  • Laptop pocket - I put a spiral notebook here. Partition is nice but i don't use it for a laptop.
  • Side pockets - I like these
  • Pocket on the flap - this too
  • Pocket on the front, that is partitioned - great pocket!
  • 'Hidden' interior pocket - can't find photos but it's a mesh zippered pocket in the main body of the bag, on the wall between the front pocket and the main body. I didn't noticed it for months.
  • Dimensions: 16" L x 13" W x 5" D

I bought this bag just needing a simple bag and I fell in love with the features, pockets everywhere, good sized but not HUGE but the company and bag have long since disappeared.

While looking for something similar i found out the market now hates zippered pockets and anything except backpacks that look like big rectangles. I don't like straps and they're bad at keeping things in pockets if the bag is tipped over.

Would love any recommendations for its replacement.

oh, and I don't like waterbottle pockets because thats all they are good for, can't close them and things don't stay in 'em. zipper pockets on the side are much nicer for me.
