These come to mind in addition to the ones mentioned:

Ortlieb (e.g. roll top, weatherproof, biking)

Freitag (recycled, fashion, expensive)

Lundhags (hiking brand, like fjällräven)

Also these (no personal experience):

WAYKS

Ortlieb truly is the number one brand when it come to bicycle equipment. I do know people who have had their Ortlieb bags for close to 20 years now and they're still in top condition.
