Like so.

I got one off Biker, I didnt need it but it will make a fine college bag.

(I have a proper leather satchel but I need a change...)

Ive given it a good wash and its cleaner but that only brings out what appear to be rust stains?

Any suggestions as to how to clean?

Also, if I do mods, what is the webbing? It soaks up water and doesnt feellike plastic.

I prefer a satchel for college use...how would i convert with the min of alteration?

Would putting a strap round the two rucksack straps work?

Where could I get OG fittings (instead of black) to match??
 
Elbow grease gets the rust off. Polish it nice and shiny, and then either keep it clean and dry, or put some kind of nail polish over the metal parts. Repeat as needed.
