High Sierra 26" Railpass

Reviewed by Fred Mendoza, 2009-10-05

I thought I had read a review or the description saying this coule be used as a carry on. But when I got it, it was much too large. I returned it and got the smaller 21" version instead. If I were backpacking through Europe, I would have kept it though. It seems like a great pack, that could hold lots of stuff and had convenient zippers, pockets, and straps everywhere.

Excellent backpack at a good price

The High Sierra 26" Railpass Travel Pack is the first travel pack I have owned. The purchase was for a 10 day trip to Thailand. It was an appropriate size for this length of trip, however, if you plan on shopping a lot during your trip, you might want a bigger pack.

Considering the transportation I encountered in Thailand, this pack was very appropriate. For the airplane, the straps can be zipped behind a panel that is otherwise rolled and velcroed under the pack. Other modes of transportation included walking, bus, skytrain (BTS), ferry, longtail boat, taxi cab, and tuk tuk. The pack fared well in all situations, although it was a bit bulky on the sky train, and sort of tough to lift in and out of the longtail boat.

Sometimes I found it more convenient to carry the packs seperately; with the daypack on the front and the big pack on my back, or vice-versa. Other times, I zipped them together into one unit. When zipped together, the pack became somewhat unbalanced, however, I was not often using the packs in this manner for a long period of time. If you plan to go on a long hiking trip, then get a hiking backpack instead.

Converting the pack to hide straps or attach/remove the day pack was very easy and quick.

The frame and belt were not ideal for a woman's body. For reference, I am 5'6" or 5'7" and weigh about 135 lbs, and I am in good shape. The belt padding did not reach far enough around my hips to be comfortable, and although the frame was adjustable, I didn't fiddle with it long enough to find an adjustment that was ideal. Maybe over time I will.

I would definitely recommend this pack due to the cheap price, and flexibility of its uses.

Great

I am pleased with this luggage. It is well made and durable. It is a bit heavy but that is due to the construction. I have carried it on a number of different types of airline flights and it has always complied (so far). I expect to get a lot of use from this luggage.

Good Travel BackPack

This seems to be a well put together pack with high functionality. We tried to decide between this one and the larger model--this one seems to be good for a Summer week trip (winter Long weekend) if you travel light. For a week trip it is a bit small.
