From November 30 to December 2, ISPO 2025 will bring the international sports and outdoor community to Munich one last time and transform the trade show into a vibrant hub of innovation, sustainability, action and an authentic community vibe. Whether it's a clothes swap, racket sports trends, running experiences, active breaks or experiencing the future of sport up close in Phygital Arena: At ISPO, you can clearly see where the industry is heading.

Here are 5 reasons that make your visit a must:

01

SWAP Event: Swap your functional clothing

The SWAP event brings circular fashion directly to the trade show - practical, conscious and incredibly motivating. You bring up to five functional items of clothing that are in good condition, receive "swapits" in return and swap them for new favorite pieces directly on site. This is how sustainable consumption works without consuming new resources - and it's also great fun.

This is how it works:
- Bring up to five pieces of functional clothing (please no shoes, no underwear)
- The SWAP crew checks the quality and awards "swapits"
- With your swapits you choose new items - simple, smart, sustainable

Because the most sustainable item of clothing is the one that already exists.

📍 Location: A2.638
🕒 When: 30.11-02.12.
