For two M6's and three lenses, I would recommend the Billingham Photo
Hadley, with one caveat.  It's a great bag, but lacks an open back pocket
for papers or magazines.  In this respect, the Domke 803 Satchel is an ideal
set-up.  It just doesn't protect the equipment as well, or look as nice, as
the Hadley.  The great thing about either of these bags is that they are
both very easy and comfortable to carry.

The Fogg bags not quite as body-hugging, but beautifully made and
practically laid out (e.g. the Bumble Bee if you want to carry papers too). 
Very expensive also.

LowePros are a different animal.  Extremely well made, very durable, but
boxy and essentially "hard" surfaced.  They will protect your stuff better
than anything if you are atop Everest, but they'll be bulkier than the
others mentioned.  Probably not what you are looking for.
