With the myths and legends of living out of a swag a deep and integral part of Australian culture, references from Banjo Patterson\u2019s songs and poems ring true in the hearts of young Aussies when looking to head out and go camping with a swag campsite setup!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Dozens of brands, makes and models of swag you can get your hands on in today\u2019s market offer a heap of bells and whistles the swaggies from the days of old would of never of dreamed about, with some swags costing more than a decent used car, the options can seem endless.<\/p>\n
So to help you narrow down the best features and the best value available in a swag today for the upmost durability and longevity in your swag, we have put together a short list of features we consider to be \u201cESSENTIAL\u201d to an Authentic, yet comfortable, and affordable swagging experience!<\/p>\n
The whole range of Adventure Kings swags<\/strong><\/a>, offers tough and fully waterproof 400gsm Ripstop polycotton canvas, this material is not only fully waterproof but extremely durable when it comes to puncture and tear resistance.<\/p>\n With the integrated polyester grid, it takes a lot of force to break through this tough fabric, and with the natural wear resistance of canvas, you\u2019d be mistaken for thinking it was a much thicker and heavier fabric!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2.Heavy duty built-In ground sheet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n As above, the fabrics used in constructing a tough swag, have to be absolutely solid performers when it comes to durability, and weather proofing. By combining the tough 400GSM ripstop polycotton canvas fabric with an extra durable and absolutely breathable 500gsm PVC bucket floor, an Adventure Kings Swag\u00a0<\/a><\/strong>offers you the absolute master of keeping the weather out, whilst you sleep comfortably inside!<\/p>\n The PVC bucket floor offers extreme rip resistance and almost impenatrable waterproof qualities making sure you don\u2019t get a damp back in the middle of the night, when the pouring rain, is pounding at your swag.<\/p>\n With the toughest fabrics and absolute durability in mind, the bonding and construction of the materials has to be taken into account, what good would a fabric that has the best waterproofing and durability be, if it simply fell apart at the slightest bump, graze, or short drag into the best location at camp!<\/p>\n All Adventure Kings swags take advantage of double stitched seams, this means that all the stitching is reinforced, making it absolutely reliable in the toughest conditions. The forces placed upon the fabric can make or break a camping experience, and during rough weather can mean the difference between sleeping or being kept up all night wondering if your swag will fall apart through the night!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When considering a swag, one of the most critical setup requirements is speed of setup, being able to show up at camp at 2:00am and be sleeping by 2:05am. Some swags have taken \u201csimple setup\u201d and bastardized it beyond recognition, with half a dozen poles that need to be setup in exactly the right sequence, otherwise all hell will break loose.<\/p>\n Although some of these pole systems are extremely \u2018strong\u2019 they don\u2019t pass the 2am campsite test, and leave tired travellers frustrated and fed up with their more complicated setup.<\/p>\n

\nWhilst this one seems obvious, not all swags are created equal, and not all canvasses are waterproof. Whilst many on the market are pretty reasonable for weather resistance, there aren\u2019t many that can boast true waterproofing!<\/p>\n
