Engineer's Bag
Inspired by this Moleskinerie thread, and especially by Bill Chance's recommendation, I ordered a Rothco M-51 Engineer's Field Bag, in black. (More detail on the product is here.)
On the thread I wrote, "I use my very much lived-in fanny pack for knocking about town, but I switch to a backpack for air travel. Although the backpack combines requisite roominess with a carry-on-friendly size, it's a bit too clunky for my tastes. I'll see if I do better with the field bag."
When it came, I took a silver Sharpie to it so that it "matches" my luggage, shown here. It's a bit bulkier with my camera case inside it, but it still closes, and will take its maiden voyage later this week when I go to Readercon.
