I've recently taken delivery of a canoe pack that Bilmo of BCUKshire made for me.
In the UK, canoe packs are very expensive, so I wanted to have one made that was a similar design to my Granite Gear Superior One, but simpler. The best way to describe the one that Bilmo made for me is that it's like a traditional canvas Duluth canoe pack, but in modern materials and without the discomfort.
Another good thing about it is that should I ever get on one of the long trips that I'd like to go on, if I use this pack as a food pack and it gets emptied, it will roll up and go inside my other pack.
The workmanship is excellent, and I'll report further when I actually get to use it.
Here are the pics, with the man himself modelling for us:
