Title: DEBATE! Which Australian made swag using only aussie material, should I buy.
Post by: fuji on June 11, 2012, 10:06:03 AM
I wish to buy a swag as there is a possibly that SWMBO won't go to Mitchellstown weekend in the middle of July. We won't have a CT by then. I am not dragging out the SC Safari tent for one person and maybe our daughter. Sooooo which swag is a quality aussie made swag?
I prefer the ones with hoops but could go the tent style. Forget the biker or old style type.
Someting to do on this cold Queens B'day holiday.  8)

Southern Cross Canvas dome swag, best swags on the market today. Mine is 3 years old and is slept in on average 100+ times a year and used commercially.

If you already have one of their touring tents then you know what the quality is like.

I'm a B&W man myself but I do like the Darche and Mr Swagman. I will look into the Coolibah which seems popular.

I've used one of these...
It has a 'completely waterproof' base with 100m (sealed) lip so you can wake-up in a puddle and still be dry!

There are some really good swags out there these days... 8)
