Made to order. Each Remote Swag is made in our Northern Rivers workshop. Please allow approximately 2 to 3 weeks for your swag to be made and shipped.
Colour note. The canvas is slightly darker than pictured, closer to a forest green tone.
The Remote Swag was born out of a desire to make a minimalist swag for bikers and bushcraft enthusiasts: something for those keen to rough it by the fire, pack up and head on to the next destination. Most modern swags are too large when rolled to allow for bushcraft, kayak and bike missions.
What started out as a lockdown project in the garage, tested down at the back creek in a 40-acre reserve, has since been refined and tested up in Arnhem Land.
The tapered, coffin-style design rolls up small enough to strap to your bike or rucksack. It's a no-nonsense cross between a traditional Aussie swag and a bivy, and it does not include the luxuries of a modern swag or one-man tent (mattress, poles, large windows and nets); there are plenty of brands already doing that. Throw in an air mattress, wool blanket, sleeping bag, yoga mat or bedding and you're good to go.
The Remote Swag is made from premium Australian-made canvas in our workshop here in the Northern Rivers and is available in limited numbers.

FAQ
What makes Remote Projects gear different?
Remote Projects creates rugged, high-quality canvas goods designed for durability, inspired by the Australian landscape. Our products are built to last, using premium materials like waxed canvas and military-spec fabrics and hardware.
Where are your products made?
Our products are designed in Australia and manufactured in trusted factories in India depending on the product, we also make a limited run of gear right here in the Northern Rivers as part of our Workshop collection.
How do I care for my waxed canvas gear?
Avoid machine washing—just brush off dirt and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Re-wax occasionally to maintain water resistance.
Are your products waterproof?
Our products feature a waxed canvas outer layer that is water-resistant and can be reproofed for added waterproofing. They also have a tightly woven waterproof lining, making them highly water-resistant—apart from the seams. While our bags can hold water for a long time, they are not designed for full submersion like a dry bag.
