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.

Classic response ... At least she knows her history!

Tell her to steer clear of cooper creek and she should be right

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 .

John Wilsher made to order,and had it the next day (mt gambier to rural victoria)

or

Southern Cross Canvas

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
