There is a price for this, but Savota's carrying tools are the only ones that have withstood my own use so far. Backpacks and bags from all other quality brands have fallen apart after just a couple of years of use, even though the price has been in the triple digits. You can break Savotank too, but so far it has required fooling around with sharp things.
You can't go wrong with Savota, if the products can withstand armed forces, then yes it can withstand civilian(ish) use as well.
The gig bag continues this line. The only thing I would like is a shoulder pad from the start. When you pack this to the brim and lift it onto your shoulder, your shoulder will soon tell you its displeasure with the situation. But the ergonomics are the best, with the attachment points, the bag can be carried either right- or left-handed, and the bag stays on the back very nicely. The only challenge is caused by Oviaukot in this carrying configuration, but even from Savota I don't expect to break the laws of physics. The bag is just as wide as it is.
There are cheaper versions, but for my own use I needed the best and most durable, and I don't want to be buying a new one every three years. When you need a gig bag for hard use, Savotta and CPE deliver. If you want ready-made compartments and pockets, you should look at other offerings. This has one large pocket with army mesh on both ends on the inside and an external pocket on the other side that also has mesh on it. I have to develop the compartment myself, which suits my own use better than an ice cube...
Overall, if you feel like the carrying equipment is falling apart in your hands and the consumer quality starts to suffer, then this can't go wrong. It carries crap, but it carries everything you can imagine needing. And a little more.

This is the biggest of the three. I had a specific need for this bag the size mainly the length was needed. As well as the length being needed I wanted to protect the items being carried. The strength the the bag has is reassuring. As well as a large end pocket there are multiple side pouches on the sides as with all the Keikka Bags.

A nice and adaptable bag that impresses with its quality. Lots of pockets and sturdy zippers. The side pockets could at least partially be zippered - the velcro tends to get blocked and is difficult to use if the pocket is full.
Instead, the velcro on the flap is a great idea for attaching additional pouches. Good handles and lifting straps. I recommend.

Huge bag! lots of space and compartiments on the sides, in and out. It sags in the middle if you load it heavy and carry it over the shoulder. Great bag for the bulkier but lighter things like clothing, sleeping bags and jacket. Don't start loading it with plate carriers and plates because the shear size will cause you to overload it and be too heavy ;)
