Yet another "carry on with suit" dilemma

As I look to getting back to work, I'm looking for a bag that will work for me to carry on.

I mainly fly European, African, Middle Eastern and Asian major carriers.

I'm looking for something:
- That looks professional enough to take to a client site, as/when I need
- That will hold a suit - PREFERABLY inside a garment bag, I hate travelling in suits and often change pre-flight in places where folding clothes carefully isn't at all easy
- That will also hold 3-4 shirts, underwear for 3-4 days, ties, small toiletries bag
- That will also carry a pair of size 12 gym trainers or running shoes (not both)
- That can be worn as a backpack

I'm looking closely at the Aeronaut with an Eagle Creek Garment Sleeve right now. Any thoughts about a better option?

I don't think the Sky Train really works with a suit as I'd want to carry it, the 235x seems impossible to get (and not a rucksack), and I haven't seen anything up to date about MEI, regarding the EO.

ETA: I love the look of the Tri-Star but it looks like it's just not long enough to get a suit in without horizontal folding.

(I've bought an eBags ML-TLS to see what it's like, in the Amazon sale.)

Any thoughts appreciated.
