SportFits at ISPO 2023
From the 28th to the 30th of November, many well-known sports and outdoor brands met at the international sports trade fair ISPO in Munich to present their highlights for the next winter season. Whether new products, collections or technologies - there was a lot on offer! We also had a look around for trends on site and gathered lots of great impressions.
The ISPO Award winners
In addition to a colourful programme of events with various speakers and themed stages, over 2,300 exhibitors presented products from the areas of clothing, shoes, equipment, accessories and hardware.
We were particularly excited about this year's ISPO Award winners. They represent the best innovation and design achievements in the sports industry. Many of these outstanding products will of course also be available in our shop next year. To whet your appetite, we'd like to introduce you to a few of them now.
One helmet that definitely deserves special mention is the multifunctional Mammut Haute Route ski touring helmet. This model is not only suitable for ski touring, but also perfect for mountaineering or cycling. Outdoor enthusiasts will also love the ultra-light and super-warm Ultrasphere 4.5 sleeping mat from Rab.
To find out which ISPO Award winners are particularly interesting for ski fans, our colleagues from Skigebiete-Test have summarised the winners for you. They were also with us at ISPO and, as Germany's widest-reaching winter sports portal, they had a close look at the most interesting products for winter sports enthusiasts.

Next year's trends
The ISPO Award winners are not the only ones to play an important role at this trade fair. In addition to new collections and innovative materials, one or two trends also often become apparent.
As in previous years, the focus is on sustainability. To contribute to environmental protection, the majority of manufacturers are now working with sustainable and recycled materials.
One colour also caught our eye: in line with the motto "Orange is the new Black", many new collections include beautiful shades of orange.

Looking forward to ISPO 2024
As every year, our trip to ISPO Munich was great fun: strolling through the exhibition halls in search of particularly innovative products and creative exhibition stands, as well as chatting with our partners directly on site.
We are already looking forward to the next ISPO - Outdoor by ISPO from the 3rd to the 5th of June 2024, where the who's who of the outdoor industry will meet.
