Product Information

Full details

The Wisport ZipperFox 40L is an ideal tactical rucksack for outdoor enthusiasts and operators requiring a versatile carry system for one or two-day excursions. It provides a significant advantage in gear accessibility thanks to its unique U-shaped clamshell zipper, though users should note that its robust construction and 1980g weight make it heavier than ultralight hiking alternatives.

FAQs

Is the pack waterproof?

The pack is water-resistant, and it comes with an integrated waterproof rain cover stored in a dedicated compartment for heavy downpours.

Can I fit a 3L hydration bladder?

Yes, the internal compartment is designed to accommodate standard hydration bladders and includes a routing port for the tube.

Does it have a dedicated frame sheet?

Yes, the SAS Plus system incorporates a support structure within the padded back panel for enhanced stability.

What is the weight of the empty rucksack?

The pack weighs approximately 1980g.

Are the buckles replaceable?

The pack uses ITW Nexus/Duraflex buckles, which are industry-standard and can be replaced if damaged.

Can this be used as a carry-on for flights?

With dimensions of 60cm x 29cm x 25cm, it may exceed carry-on limits for some airlines; please verify with your specific airline requirements.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close

Clear any debris or fabric snagged in the zipper track and apply a dry silicone-based zipper lubricant.

Back panel feels uncomfortable

Readjust the load distribution by tightening the load lifter straps and ensuring the hip belt is fastened snugly.

MOLLE attachments are loose

Ensure the PALS webbing straps are woven tightly and locked with a clip or by folding the webbing back through the matrix.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally durable construction using Wisport zippers and ITW Nexus/Duraflex hardware
  • Versatile access via the full-length U-shaped zipper
  • Excellent modularity with full MOLLE integration
  • Includes essential extras like a rain cover and hydration compatibility

Cons

  • Heavier empty weight compared to non-tactical 40L packs
  • Not suitable for those prioritizing ultralight gear setups
  • The internal webbing requires time to configure for optimal organization

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the SAS Plus system, adjust the shoulder straps first to ensure the hip belt sits squarely on your iliac crest. Ensure all buckles are snapped shut when not in use to maintain longevity. For hydration, route your bladder tube through the dedicated exit port. Cleaning is straightforward: wipe the Cordura-like material with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying to preserve the waterproof coatings. When storing the pack for long periods, keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent UV degradation of the nylon fabric.
