Gear and Go Double Swag SALE
Due to the Swags being in storage for a long time, we've had a couple of comebacks in this last batch whereby some customers reports leakage at the corners.
This is an easy fix or you could just add a tarpaulin as per the picture above. Photos and the product to use are in the attached document together with Seasoning Instructions.
Therefore we are selling the last 30+ at below cost price with a no-return policy. You might be one of the lucky ones who don't have issues? Once it has been sealed on the corners, you are good to go.
The swag boasts a massive sleeping area, certainly one of the largest available in the UK market at 2100mm Length, 1550mm Width and almost 1000mm High. The superbly comfortable mattress is an open cell foam mattress that is 50mm thick and even comfy on stony ground.
These Swags are superbly easy to use with freestanding quick attach pole loops, making it fast to set up and take down. These tents are versatile and can be used for off-roading, fishing, hunting and weekend camping trips.
The outer fabric is 400 gsm Ripstop polycotton canvas and a heavy duty PVC bucket floor offers excellent waterproof properties.
The end poles are 10.2mm diameter for extra strength and the centre / spreader pole is a tough telescopic alloy design. We have listened to a great deal of feedback with regards to sagging in the extra large swag, and have added an additional centre support to prevent this.
The Swag has a large openings on both sides of the tent, with outer door and inner mesh anti-bug lining, allowing for plenty of room to get in and out without struggling through a small doorway. There are large storm flaps and vents located at the top and bottom, giving protection and ventilation whatever the weather.
Eyelets on the outer corners of the door flaps and 2 additional poles allowing one of the sides to be opened and secured to provide a little 'awning'
The swag comes with a water resistant bag, made from the same sturdy fabric as the tent itself, it is plenty large enough to roll up the Swag with the mattress inside.
We also have an upgrade bag available which is made from waterproof fabric and is large enough to also hold additional bedding and pillows.

Deluxe Double Swag
Swag Seasoning Instructions
STEP 1
- Set up your swag as if you were going on a camping trip
- Remove mattress
- Ensure all windows and doors are closed
STEP 2
- Soak the product with a garden hose. The canvas needs to be saturated so please allow at least 5 minutes of forceful water to achieve this.
- To help the water penetrate the canvas, you could use a clean sponge and sponge the water onto the canvas.
- Once the canvas is totally saturated, leave it in the sun (dry place) to fully dry.
STEP 3 and 4
- To ensure that the canvas is fully waterproof, repeat step 2 two more times.
NOTE
- This process causes the canvas to contract and expand multiple times, subsequently the canvas would have ‘closed up’ any holes caused by the stitching process resulting in the product being more water resistant.
Sealant:
Once you have completed the seasoning process the first time, wet the Swag again and have someone sit inside to see if there is any water coming through. Look at the inside binding where the canvas and pvc meet, if it feels wet (will be a darker colour), then water is coming through from the outside. On the ones that were faulty, this mainly happened in the corners where the most stress were put on the stitching.
This is the product we used. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0F2SN6RB9?ref=fed_asin_title
Once the Swag is dry again, spread a thin line of the sealant over the stitching and in between the canvas and the pvc (where the water came through). Then use the blue plastic ’spreader’ to ensure that is making contact. On the photo below, I did it from the clip downwards and between the canvas and pvc.
The sealant also comes with a clear adhesive square, which you can cut in 4 strips and apply on the inside if needed.
The sealant is touch dry within 30 mins and a second coat can be applied. Then it needs 24 hours to cure fully.
SETTING UP TIPS
- There are 3 sets of lock-in poles, the 2 long ones for the outside ends and the shorter one for the inside middle support.
- As the swag is new, and the stitching still tight, the easiest way to insert the middle support, is to sit inside the swag and pull the tab towards the mattress, creating and angle. That makes it a little bit easier to insert the support pole. This holder will stretch with time which will make it easier.
