Even stuff they make today is of higher standards, but you can't compare a casual bag that was probably 50-100€ to their international line of jackets that costs around 1 grand. @OP id look at a Fjallraven bag for something more suited to NL weather and riding a bike.

They're known for their waxed cotton jackets, but that bag looks more like a casual item. They make good stuff that lasts generally, or at least that could last, with constant care and maintenance.

I struggle with the opposite, at 55kg but 1.8m tall most brands think men like me aren't real...

Something about the story behind patagonia would make me choose it over other brands. Looks a bit nicer too.
