Any suggested alternatives to this bag?

I bought this bag a few weeks ago and it's nearly perfect but because it's canvas it's already covered in stains (jeans dye!) from me being out in the rain with it so it always looks a mess. I could do with a non-canvas equivalent, but still one that's large enough to carry all the usual handbag stuff plus nappy changing stuff and assorted snacks/beaker for a toddler, also be across the body to leave my hands free for chasing after said toddler.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Depends on your budget.

When I had DD2, I needed a good sized bag for all the paraphernalia of a newborn and my 15 month old toddler. I wanted cross body but also that would convert to a rucksack for when I had DD2 in the sling. I got myself the Storksak Claire in black (but worth looking as they do lots of other colours too. It's brilliant, water-resistant, a good size but also good looking enough to use every single day, everywhere I go. It's not leather just fabric, though they do leather ones too. It's £88 though which is a good deal more expensive than the one you have already. I justified it as it is literally the only bag I owned.

However, if you don't like/need the rucksack feature but the price isn't off-putting do look at the website as their bags are really nice I think.

This is new season and looks nice

It is nice but I was hoping for something in the same price range to the one I've got (£20-£30?)
