Aerostich is the first place I think of when it comes to things for the bike. This is what shows for tail bags:

I'm sure others have direct experience with something that works for them.

Do you have the sloped OEM rack like this?
Or a flat aftermarket rack like this?
Will you carry the bag on the rack or rear seat?

I've had a Chase Harper USA "CHR Sport Tail Trunk" for a dozen years and used it on several bikes. It has 4 connected bungees and 3 zippered compartments besides the main one.
It is only one of about 12 or so trunk bags on their website.
I wasn't looking for a bag when I saw it, but I bought it because the design seemed practical, was high quality and the only bag in any motorcycle shop that I had seen that was made in the USA.

If you could post a picture of the bag on the bike, that would be great. Also, I would have posted a picture of the rack on my bike, but I couldn’t figure out how to post a picture. Any advice would be appreciated.
Look at posts #15 and 16 in this thread:

It's best if the picture is no bigger than 1Mb or 1024x768 pixels in size.

look out!!!
Wolfman Luggage has just revamped their line and is claimed to be waterproof. I can attest to the ruggedness of their gear, but I have not tested this specific bag

I get a kick out of the bag selection and related prices. I bought two gym bags from Walmart 15 years ago. They were canvas impregnated with some sort of poly, less than $10 each. They have been strapped on the back of my motorcycles many times over the year and never had a issue with wet clothing. I had to replace them this summer, but now I drag a Unigo trailer so I bought bags to toss into the trailer, another $10 each at Walmart!

look out!!!
I used to treat mine with Thompson's Water Seal.
The new generation is much improved in that respect.

Look good?
As they say: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To me, what looks good comes after what fits and doesn't harm the paint or appear to be dangerous (hanging too far off the sides or too high to get my leg over)
When you can answer those questions then you're on your way. So what works for you is the best answer.
