Ridgedome swag is great
This swag is a great product, it's extremely spacious for a swag and always plenty of room to store belongings inside with you. I think it would be big enough to share with a segnificant other, maybe a bit close for two mates. I used this swag for the first time in 0degree weather and it held up fine with thermals and some light clothing a in -14degree sleeping bag and an extra doona just incase
Survived 4 days @ the Prom
Used my Darche Ridgedome swag last weekend @ Wilsons Prom, we had sun then rain & 100km winds, sway kept me warm & dry. Didn't move in the stong winds, mattress was extremely comfortable.
Carry Bag1 answer
I am wondering if the Darche Ridgedome swag comes with a carry bag (for when its stored) ? Cheers
G'day Bruce,Â
The Darche Ridgedome Swag doesn't come with an included carry bag, but a good option would be something like the AOS Swag Bag Double - it's going to be a little roomy but it will accommodate the length of the swag when it's packed.Â
Rolled up size, and cotton V polycotton1 answer
What is the rolled up lentgth of the swag - the specs say 1400mm, but that must the box?? I am torn between the ridgedome and the dusk to dawn - what difference does the different canvas's make? Thanks.
G’day George,
We don’t have one of these swags on display, and I wasn’t able to take this swag out of its box - but from measuring the size of the box, the Ridgedome measures approx 100cm long x 35cm wide x 35cm high.
Keep in mind that the size of the swag won’t be exact to those dimensions once it’s out of the box, as you probably won’t be able to roll it as tight as the factory.
As for the materials - canvas is going to be more breathable compared to synthetic fabric, and it has natural insulation which’ll keep you cool when it’s hot, and warm when it’s cool. Canvas is often more durable over time as well.
Polycotton is a mixture of synthetic and natural fibre, so you’ll get more resistance to mould/mildew as it’ll be a little more water resistant.
I’d say it would come down to personal preference, but if you’re willing to spend little bit more the canvas may be worth in the long run in terms of quality.
Is this type of the Swag available for two people (double)1 answer

G'day Boris,Â
I've just had a look through Darche's range and unfortunately the Ridgedome Swag only comes in one size - King Single.Â
Darche make some other styles in a double size, specifically the Dusk To Dawn 1400 and the Dirty Dee 1400 which are both also freestanding swags (like the Ridgedome) - so you might want to take a look at those if you're interested in a Darche model.
You can also check out the rest of the double sized swags in our range here to get a feel of what else is available.Â
