High Sierra 22″ Passport Travel Pack Reviews

Took two of these on a recent trip, and I was very happy. I’m a girl with a small frame and had no problems carrying this – another reviewer here feels differently though, so perhaps it depends on your needs. I didn’t take this hiking and can’t vouch for its performance there. Great for backpacking travel though, if your trip is relatively short and you want to travel light. Very sturdy and survived being checked into airport luggage on the way back. It could use a few more pockets, but otherwise I was very happy and would definitely go for High Sierra again; I doubt I’d pay the exorbitant list price, but on Amazon this is an excellent deal.

I bought this backpack so I could live out of it for 3 weeks traveling in Europe. This backpack is great because it perfectly fits the dimensions limited for carry-on bags on flights within the EU but still has a lot of volume for storage. It is comfortable and with the waist belt it distributes the weight very well so that I had no problem carrying the bag around on my back all day. I haven’t tried the shoulder strap but it appears to be another convenient feature.

I ripped one of the gray carabiner loops on the front of the backpack when I grabbed it to slide the backpack across the carpet but I have had no other problems with splitting or tearing. I did not apply much force when the loop ripped so I believe it would not have been able to hold a water bottle or anything else very well either. The bag overall seems slightly less durable than other bags I have used (Jansport, The North Face) but it worked very well on my trip and I think it will work well for future traveling, and should last a very long time as I am only using it occasionally. But I will stick to my messenger bag for day-to-day use.
