So I gave the swag to my daughter today for her 21st birthday, and she loved it. Then she said, "Burke and Wills, didn't they die a horrible death in the outback?":o

I have been looking at Hannibal Roof Top Tents for a while and they are made in South Africa with "Australian Made Canvas" Interesting. Thanks for that.Quote:

She moved out three years ago, and as she is in Tamworth all her friends had swags, so she wanted one. Even my 18 year old has moved out now, we must be terrible parents :o.Quote:

Evan at Terra Rosa Gear makes a traditional style swag.
These Guys seem to be the only manufacturer of real canvas in Australia
WCT >> Wax Converters Textiles Australia >> Australian Textile Manufacturer
They say they actually weave here in AU:)
My wife son and I all have Downunder swags. We have the Dingo as it is compact and easy to roll out or prop up the ends using a short pole. They have fancier models like the Jumbuck if you want a more dome type arrangment
They are Aussie made and tough as teak. Check out their link below
