Wisport Sparrow II 40 l Backpack - MultiCam

Introducing the updated Sparrow model! This compact military and survival backpack offers a 40-liter capacity, crafted from 500D Cordura in MultiCam camouflage. Its design is inspired by the urban Raven model and tailored for rigorous field application.

durable Cordura construction

The backpack is constructed entirely from durable 500D Cordura, a material known for its high resistance to abrasions and mechanical damage, ensuring long-lasting durability even in challenging environments.

2 compartments, 5 pockets, hydration system

The Sparrow II model is designed with two generous compartments. The primary compartment includes four D-rings on the back wall for securing various accessories. The secondary compartment comes with an extended organizer to manage smaller items efficiently. Inside the main compartment, you'll find mesh pockets equipped with zippers. The flap features a flat pocket matching the main compartment's size and approximately 5 cm in thickness, perfect for storing documents, maps, or a small laptop. Additionally, there is a small outer pocket on the flap for quick access.

Within the backpack, there is a hydration bladder hook, along with a tube exit hole, and two loops (one on each shoulder strap) for secure attachment.

main zipper, protective flaps

The primary and secondary compartments are accessible via a two-way zipper extending along three sides of the flap, ensuring easy entry to the interior. All zippers are designed to be tough and resistant to abrasion, equipped with textile pulls for convenient operation even when gloves are worn. The zippers for the compartments and the front pocket are safeguarded by cover flaps that protect the inside from moisture and dirt.

carrying system, compression straps, transport handle

The carrying system of the AFS - Air Flow System guarantees adequate structural rigidity, user comfort, and efficient heat dissipation from the user's back. Comfort during wear is further improved with quick-release, elongated shoulder straps with adjustable length, along with the chest and hip straps. The inner side of the straps is crafted from tightly woven fabric that prevents snagging on clothes. Additionally, at the back, there's a tunnel designed to accommodate a fiberglass frame compatible with the backpack system (not included).

On each side are two compression straps equipped with 30 mm fastex buckles, enabling the reduction of volume and secure attachment of gear such as clothing, tarp, sleeping pad, or camouflage netting. A large and wide transport handle on top ensures easier carrying.

MOLLE / PALS

MOLLE/PALS webbing is stitched onto the front, bottom, and sides, enabling the attachment of extra gear or quick-access items for urgent need.

velcro panel

The backpack's front features a velcro panel designed for attaching patches, unit emblems, national flags, or morale patches.

Set contents

The backpack is equipped with a practical rain cover that efficiently safeguards both the bag and its contents from moisture. It's indispensable during heavy downpours and in demanding outdoor environments, ensuring the gear remains dry.

MultiCam camouflage

MultiCam is an advanced camouflage design produced by the US firm Crye Precision in 2002, in collaboration with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) as part of the Objective Force Warrior initiative. The aim was to develop a versatile camouflage pattern that performs effectively across diverse terrains and varying environmental conditions. Featuring seven colors, the MultiCam pattern blends gradients between green, brown, and beige hues. Consequently, it adjusts to the surroundings, appearing green in wooded areas and brown or beige in desert landscapes. In Central and Eastern Europe, it is particularly effective in autumn and amongst dry vegetation. With global recognition, MultiCam is utilized by numerous military and special operations units. In 2010, the US Army officially adopted it for soldiers in Afghanistan, replacing the previous Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). Available to civilians, it is a favored option among military and airsoft enthusiasts.

manufacturer's warranty

The backpack includes a 5-year warranty from the manufacturer.

    My earlier first-generation Sparrow 30 has been serving me for over 12 years already; when the zipper broke, I squeezed it with pliers, and since then it has been working without any problems for 2 years now. The 40 model maintains an equally high level of quality, and the changes introduced are really well thought out. My unit already has sewn-in straps at the top, which was a surprise to me, because I hadn’t seen them in any photos online — it looks like Wisport is quietly introducing modifications to its products. The only thing I’m missing is a flag patch included in the set; for a backpack made in Poland, that would be a very nice detail.

    I bought it as an evacuation bag. I haven't used it yet. It looks very nice, sturdy, and comfortable. Positive experiences and reviews convinced me.

    I recently ordered it, and for me it's perfect. Compared with earlier models, this one already has built-in compression straps in the upper part of the backpack, which makes it possible to pull the top in closer to the shoulder straps. You can see that Wisport listens to its customers.

    Fantastic backpack. The quality is outstanding. The 500D Cordura is tough but doesn’t wear out fabrics the way 1000D can. I hesitated for a long time before buying it (it ultimately became a gift that my wife wanted to give me), because it had everything except load lifter straps, whose absence many buyers complained about in several reviews I had read. Imagine my surprise when, upon receiving the backpack, I noticed that the manufacturer had in fact added those straps. The backpack is now truly complete and ready to be put to the test. I’ll be using it on hikes and for travel as carry-on luggage, as the dimensions are perfectly suitable. I can confirm all the positive reviews I had read so far regarding the quality of the materials and the finish. The backpack weighs nearly 2 kg, so it’s not the lightest, but I was specifically looking for something sturdy. The rear pocket against the back (intended for a hydration bladder, with a removable vertical aluminum bar that reinforces the stiffness of the back panel) can easily hold a 15-inch laptop. Granted, the pocket isn’t padded, but it does benefit from the exterior foam of the back panel. That said, this is not a backpack specifically designed for carrying a laptop, and that’s worth keeping in mind. Excellent purchase (or rather: gift, in my case). Finally, I’d suggest to the Military website that if this version 2.0 of the backpack (with the load lifter straps) really is a new version, they should update the description and the photos. I’m certain that with this additional detail, many people will no longer have any doubts about buying it.

    This is a longer term review. I've worn and used this pack quite a lot now. It's my third Wisport. The quality of manufacture and durability are top notch. These packs are built to last. The zippers are sturdy, the material is good quality. Olive green is a very beautiful color in my opinion. The pack is comfortable to wear, ventilation is average. The straps are well designed. I usually remove the waist strap as I don't need it. Even without it the pack is comfortable to carry. You can orderly pack a lot of gear in this pack, since it is roomy. One thing I do not like about this design at all, it could even be hazardous to those using this in duty: there is a gap between the shoulder straps and the top of the pack. If you are moving in dense environments and brush you easily get stuck as branches get stuck in just this gap. It has happened to me repeatedly so you have to keep that in mind when you move in forests. I really don't understand the reasoning behind this design aspect. Other than that I am happy with this pack, it has served me well and I am sure it will serve me well much longer. My next pack will definitely be another Wisport.

    Built for durability, the Wisport Sparrow II 40L is a high-capacity pack that excels in organization. It comfortably fits a laptop and tablet with room to spare, maintaining a professional profile. The Cordura construction ensures long-term resistance, while the side compression straps are top-tier—keeping the load stable and preventing gear from shifting when the pack isn't at full capacity.

    A convenient and spacious city backpack. High-quality fittings and sturdy construction. Large main compartment. There is an option to carry a 14" laptop in the compartment near the back. The organizer made of mesh inside the main compartment is quite roomy. I am satisfied with the backpack.

    This is a really solid backpack – it has served me well on several of my trips, and it is surprisingly comfortable to carry things in, which positively surprised me for this type of backpack. After unfastening the hip belt, it can easily replace a cabin suitcase because it has a similar size. I always take it with me on flights and it works great. The materials it's made of are high quality – I’ve been using it for over a year, and it still looks brand new. The top pocket of the backpack is a very practical solution – you can store, for example, headphones, gloves, or glasses there, and at the same time, it's discreet and allows you to quickly grab small items you need. However, there is one downside that other users have also mentioned: the lack of straps tightening the shoulder straps at the top of the backpack causes the upper part to stick out after it's fully packed, and it looks unaesthetic. I’m surprised that Wisport's designers didn’t foresee this and released a product with such a flaw – it was irritating enough for me that I fixed it myself, and now it’s okay. Considering the price and the class of the equipment, users should not have to make their own modifications. I’m adding photos to this opinion so that other users and Wisport’s designers can see the solution – it would be nice if such an improvement was introduced to the backpacks and offered to people who trusted the brand. In my case, I made the modification using original Wisport parts; I only had to modify the buckles on the straps so I wouldn't have to cut the sewn-on bands.

    There are no perfect things, but this backpack is very close to ideal. What am I missing? In the first large compartment, a velcro panel for additional organizers could be handy. The side pouches for canteens could be deeper because standard military bottles often slide out and might fall. That's it for the drawbacks. On the plus side: large capacity, regular shape, comfortable carrying system, zippers work smoothly and don't get stuck, durable thick material, and nice color (although that's a matter of preference). For me, the backpack serves as a backup during car trips. It easily fits a booster/power bank, first aid kit, tarp, water boiling set, several packs of freeze-dried food, coffee, tea, cups, multitool, hatchet, knife, large gomboy, blanket, various odds and ends, and still isn't overfilled :) This is exactly what I needed!

    The backpack costs quite a bit, but it's definitely worth its price. It has a large capacity and is very practical. The straps are sturdy, durable, and comfortable to wear. The zippers are reliable and work smoothly. Additionally, the included rain cover is a big plus.

    I've had it for some time now, so I've had a chance to test it thoroughly. I really appreciate its capacity, the practical additional pockets, and the cover that comes with the set. The backpack may seem quite large, but 40 liters is really a lot of space, which makes it easy to pack a lot of gear. The side pockets with tightening straps are great – you can easily fit an AR stock in there.

    Wisport Sparrow 40L backpack Pros: spacious, well-made Cons: no MOLLE straps on the front, water bottle pockets could be bigger as a 1-liter bottle fits but just barely Summary: this is the best backpack I have used so far

    The backpack is made of very high-quality materials – in this regard, it matches brands like 5.11, Oakley, or Mystery Ranch. The stitching quality is excellent, the AFS carrying system is very comfortable, and the pocket layout and interior organization are flawless. However, I do have some reservations about a few design solutions: the lack of a molle system on the front and its replacement with two straps does not work well in practice. The handle of the shoulder straps has been sewn lower, causing the backpack to stick out and making it impossible to adjust. The side pockets are not functional – a 1L Camelbak bottle easily falls out, and the rows of molle straps on the sides are too short. Additionally, the strips protecting the zipper are poorly designed – they don’t return to place and snag on the zippers. As a result, I decided to return this backpack and am still looking for a 40-liter model.

    The backpack is well made, nothing is coming apart, the seams are evenly stitched, and using it is really comfortable. The quality-to-price ratio is also very favorable, so I can easily recommend this product.

    A solid backpack with a well-designed construction. According to the manufacturer, it weighs just under 2 kg without contents, but in my opinion it is light enough for its size. The set also includes a rain cover, which is located in the lower pocket of the backpack – this is definitely an advantage. The whole thing is made with attention to quality. I definitely recommend buying this model.
