Erecting and packing your swag

Before you unpack your swag

  1. check how your swag is packed before you unroll it, so you can roll it up in the same way.
  2. Condensation may occur in cool or moist conditions.
  3. Point swag foot end into the wind.
  4. Foam mattress may compresses from being rolled up for long periods; it may be partially restored by unrolling and leaving it outside in the sun for a short time.
  5. Swags sizes are approximate only, due to natural shrinking and stretching of canvas depending on the weather.
  6. Reproofing of the seams and hard wearing areas may be necessary after extended usage.
