The Oztrail Biker Swag is a modern take on the classic Australian “swag” – a small tent designed to hold one person and not much else. These utilitarian shelters were created by Jackaroos (Australian cowboys) who needed a small, simple shelter that could be strapped to the back of their horses.
As it happens, motorcyclists also have limited carrying capacity – making the swag an ideal solution for use on long road trips. The swag you see pictured here is made by Oztrail, a major Australian camping gear manufacturer, and it rolls down to just 50cm by 30cm.
