Two new Wisport backpacks at MSPO

During the 32nd International Defence Industry Exhibition, MSPO 2024, Polish company Wisport showcased two new backpacks, as well as its proven and long-popular range of older models.

Wisport at MSPO

The Wrocław-based company Wisport is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. Although its current product range also includes fleece jackets, ski pants, thermal underwear, and a wide variety of outdoor accessories, the company is best known for producing high-quality backpacks. Among the products offered are trekking, travel, military, survival, specialty, and urban backpacks.

New Backpack - Crafter Overload

At the booth of the Wrocław-based company, two backpacks that had not previously been part of Wisport’s offer attracted attention. The first was the Crafter OverLoad expedition backpack. Its capacity is 75 L, extendable to 90 L. The design of the Crafter allows easy front access to the main compartment. According to the manufacturer’s representative, the backpack is equipped with an entirely new carrying system. The displayed model features MOLLE webbing on the front and sides, allowing for the attachment of additional accessories, such as side pockets. The exhibited piece was in RAL 6003 color.

Compact backpack Magnum

The second new backpack is positioned at the opposite end of Wisport’s range, as it belongs to the smallest, one-day backpacks offered by the company. The Magnum backpack, as it is called, has a capacity of just 18 L, but at first glance, it’s clear that it would be a great companion for shorter trips. Beyond the appeal of this tactical compactness, its comfortable foam back with a ventilation system will certainly make it a favorite. The backpack has a military style. Two vertically sewn straps run down the front, stitched at equal intervals to form something like Daisy Chain loops, allowing for the attachment of carabiners or extra gear. On the sides, there are MOLLE system straps and small pockets. At the top of the front, a Velcro patch creates a wide ID panel. The exhibited model was in Olive Green.

Classic products and the new incarnation of ShotPack

At MSPO, Wisport also reminded attendees of its well-established products, such as the Zipperfox backpacks and the wide range of the Sparrow series. Visitors could also see the very interesting ShotPack II backpack, designed for carrying long firearms.

Reapair kits

By presenting repair kits for its backpacks, Wisport reminded customers that it cares for them not only at the moment of purchase but throughout the often long lifespan of its products.
