ALTON WALKABOUT SWAG
The Alton Walkabout Swag is said to combine old-school durability with cutting-edge Nanopore technology and innovative design, and is described as a whole new frontier for lightweight solo-shelters.
Claimed to be 100 per cent waterproof, the Walkabout Swag is constructed from Nanopore, Alton’s cutting-edge 3L shell fabric with outstanding waterproof performance and breathability, while the base material is ripstop nylon.
When erected, the swag dimensions are 2610mm (l) x 1020mm (w) x 535mm (h) and the total packed weight, including ropes, poles and pegs, is a mere 1.47kg. Compared to traditional swags, that’s a lightweight bit of kit, but it should be noted that you will need to add a mattress; the Walkabout Swag can accommodate a large self-inflating or air mattress and still have space at the head of the swag to store some gear.
RRP: $699
