I have the Gen 1 of this Peak Design bag in 30L. I think it fits the bill perfectly. I can easily get 2 days of clothes (3 in the summer) + laptop + notebook + dopp kit with plenty of room left over for a flask. That's not utilizing the top pocket or side pockets yet.

It looks as new and functions as well as the day I bought it in 2017. Don't underestimate the utility of the key holder for securing your keys while flying/traveling as well.

If you are ok with a small amount of synthetic for stretch, we have a local to MN company called Hippy Feet with majority cotton socks (in addition to wool) that are made in the US.

They also give 50% of their profit to nonprofits that support homeless kids, which is cool. However they don’t have a lifetime warranty.

The only other one I know about is farm to feet, which are all wool (from/made in us), but they do the the lifetime guarantee.

Corporate green washing isn't about being green. It's about reducing cost and increasing profit in the most cynical way possible. I notice at my own work places after 75 years of the same furniture that would be beautiful with some refinishing they instead throw it away and buy a bunch of mdf furniture they have to replace every 3 years.
