ARB Swags

[GGV8Cruza]

Looks as though the roof top tents are now coming down to the ground. There has been some photos released on facebook. They look great and when they come out a replacement purchase may be made.

Sam could you possible put up some info for us??

I think the big question is how do you get the gal in the photos to come along too.

Sam, I can see a terrific retail oppotunity for ARB. Bring a ute load of swags and that lovely young lady along to Mace's big bash.

Being serious once more, they do look well designed, with all external poles and with lateral spreader bars too. I think they should have included a boot flap as standard, possibly more helpful than the hat saver.

Agree they look good, don't know about the seperate little boot tent, looks a bit lardy daa for me and I can imaging the ribbing from the mate's. The only other thing would be air flow. I camp in hot conditions regularly and find that full length mesh down both sides in addition to windows in both ends makes it possible to catch any breeze that is about. Essentially my current one becomes a big mesh/mozzy tent when fully opened up.

Some good features though.

They are flash ones, not my cup of tea but I am sure there is a big market. How tight do they roll up, got a picture Sam (and hand rolled with bedding not factory rolled please)?

Question for the group, when does a swag become a tent?  I would call that a tent

it's related to "when does a camper become a caravan?"

my answer is... when you need extended mirrors...

agreed, looks flash and could be a good bit of gear but thats a tent to me.
As soon as you need to add poles its a tent not a swag, IMHO.

Yep its a small tent, about the size of my hiking tent, but rolls up about 4 times the size, weighs a heap more, and looks like it would take longer to set up.

Small tent?? Nah, of course it's a swag.  Must be ARB bashing time again 

Anyway call it what you want, I like it... apart from the chihuahua tent (or is that a swag as well?).  Although, I can see my eldest two trying to get the youngest to sleep in it.

We only have studio shots of them rolled up at this stage. They have the mattress inside but no other bedding.

Comfortably rolled (not vacuum packed), they will fit inside a box with a 37cm height and depth.

Cheers, Sam.

Spot on mate. As long as you like it that's all that counts  . That boot bag is hilarious though.

No ones bashing anyone, I said it looks good, just not for me and asked what in general people consider the line to be between a swag and a tent

Thanks Sam, they are smaller than I expected. I find that with both my swags I can never get them to roll as tight as when they were new even without bedding.

It's alright Burnsy, I didn't take it as bashing. I can certainly see where the small tent reference comes from  . Just one you can still roll your mattress and bedding up in...

Cheers, Sam.

Just stirring Burnsy... (don't want to upset my QuickFist supplier! )  They don't call me 'LJ Stirry McStir' for nothing.

Besides, I don't need one... I got one free when I bought my lockers from the US.







More stirring

I think the boot swag needs a cushion for your boots, here's one I found...

Just choked on my steak, I was trying to find a nice way of saying exactly that

[singo-26]

My youngest want a boot swag as a Teddy bear swag.
