HOW TO SEASON YOUR DARCHE SWAG
The best way to season your swag is to set up outdoors and completely soak the exterior material of the swag with
a hose. Allow the swag to dry completely. Repeat this process 2-3 times. Seasoning the swag will allow the canvas
material to swell and will help to fill any stitching holes, providing an additional level of weather protection. Ensure
the swag is completely dry before packing away.
CARE & STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove dirt with a soft brush and cold water after use.
2. Do not clean with soap, detergent, petrol, oil or solvents.
3. Ensure swag is completely dry before storing.
4. Do not store directly on concrete floors. A dry shelf in your shed or a cupboard is a perfect spot for your swag
when not in use.
5. If spot mould is visible, brush it off with a stiff bristle nylon brush and vacuum the area to get rid of any residual
spores.
6. Leaving your swag rolled too tightly for long periods of time may result in the mattress taking a while to bounce
back. If it’s been a while since your last adventure, open your swag a few days before you leave and allow the
mattress to expand. Re-pack your swag and have a great weekend.
MOISTURE/CONDENSATION
Condensation is a natural occurrence in confined areas like swags/tents due to the body releasing more moisture
that the canvas can dispose in cold weather. To minimise the chance of condensation, we recommend slightly
opening the window to enable airflow on cold nights.
