Review for model:

Very good backpack made of Cordura, good quality as is usually the case with Wisport. However, I have some reservations regarding the frame and the distance mesh. First of all, the frame must be purchased separately. Secondly, the factory (straight) frame does not create space between your back and the back of the backpack. Thirdly, the factory frame is made in such a sloppy way that its ends wear through the straps that are supposed to hold the frame in place. This is therefore a serious shortcoming as far as the design of the backpack itself is concerned. After a few improvements, reinforcements, and above all after making my own shaped frame, the backpack finally becomes more functional and comfortable. But for this price, I would expect someone to have already done this for me at the factory. Hence the disappointment. Apart from that, the backpack performs flawlessly. Over the course of a year, it has easily survived several mountain trips and visits to the shooting range and shows no signs of wear. I hope it will last me a long time.

Positive aspects are the material quality and wearing comfort. The included cover is also a big convenience, so you don't have to buy one separately. On the downside, the patch panel is quite small – I have my own set of patches and it didn't all fit in this case.

This is a very solid backpack. It seems eternal. It has many advantages, but I decided to write about some disadvantages. First, it is noticeably heavy. I've had it for about 2 years and use it often, but sometimes when I pick up the empty backpack, I check if I haven't left something heavy in it because that's how it feels. For this reason, I don't recommend it for long mountain trips when you need to carry a lot of items. After fully opening the zippers of a full backpack, it's quite difficult to close them again as the zipper spreads out. Sometimes it's impossible to do this with one hand. The front pocket has a narrow zipper and is itself very narrow and long. Because of this, it has very limited use. Apart from the large mass, the previously mentioned defects are not very troublesome.

Very solid, spacious, and well-made backpack. It survived the Marine Commando Run and the Grom Challenge without any damage. Very interesting camouflage pattern, it's a pity there aren't as many products in it. The weight in the backpack usually sits a bit low, which might be a problem for some, but overall, the backpack is really worth recommending.

I have owned this backpack for about 4 years and use it almost every day. Despite this, it looks better than many Chinese backpacks after a year of use.

Comfortable, well made, with a large number of compartments.

Backpack OK. It replaced a worn-out (16-year-old) Włóczykij from Wolfgang. Theoretically almost the same capacity (25 and 24 liters) but practically the Caracal is much bigger and more spacious. The only thing that might bother you are the stiffening bars - after taking the backpack off and putting it on your lap (as often happens on public transport) they can dig in a bit if it's very full. But you can remove them so it's not a problem. We'll see how it holds up in terms of durability.

A world-class product, 100% made in Poland, it's worth supporting our economy. The backpack is very neat, spacious, has mounts for hydration tubes, a thick hip belt, a stiffening plate, and a rain cover. I recommend it!!

I highly recommend it, very nice, sturdy, and well-designed backpack

I recommend it, a very sturdy and cool backpack

I recommend it, one of the best backpacks.

Very comfortable, well-stiffened - you can load it heavily. Excellent access to the main compartment. The larger front pocket could have a wider zipper - it would make access easier. The hip belt may be too high for people over 185cm, reversing it 180 degrees helps a bit, and you can remove it, which is a plus. Rain cover included - another plus. Manufacturing quality, as usual with Wisport, is very high. The backpack is worth its price.

A very comfortable and practical backpack. I recommend it to people who like trips.

Backpack okay, well made, I recommend it.

A very successful Christmas gift last year. I wish everyone could find something like this under the tree.
