I use the grey coloured Delegate model of this brand:

http://europe.eastpak.com/products/start_p/authentic.html

that I once got as a present from a production company.

Inside a Xerox copier toner packaging with personally cut dividers, all in
exquisit cardboard that I reinforced with gaffer tape. On the bottom 5
layers of bubble plastic. Then lenses in pockets made of a double layer of
bubble plastic.

Outside I sprayed the canvas to waterproof it.

Best bag I ever had: doesn't draw attention, didn't cost a thing and I
generally put an M + 3 lenses, a Ricoh Gr1s, a Pentax V spotmeter, a Lunasix
meter, a small reflection screen, a Summicron shade, a Grey card, a sunny 16
cheatcard, a loupe, a small torch, some tape, and up to 12 rolls of film.

I'm thinking of patenting it :-)
