Kakadu vs. 23Zero SWAGS?

[Sid Post]

I'm debating getting a SWAG. How do the 23Zero and Kakadu SWAGS compare to each other? Is one better than the other?

TIA,
Sid

No experience with Kakadu, But I have 3 23zero swags. Top quality, no problems .
900 dual
1100 dual
1400 dual
I sometimes put the 1100 on a stretcher cot and works nicely.

Similar to a bivy sack/bag but usually bigger.

Anyone know the best available swag in the US? I can seem to only find the Kodiak.

23zero, Kakadu

Austrailian for Bivy essentially. They are a bit bigger so you have more room for boots and a small pack.

Usually, they have mesh openings on the ends so you can get good ventilation in the rain as the fabric bellows out. They also can have mesh top sections as well for star gazing and ventilation as well. Add a ~3" foam mattress included in some, and you have a really nice compact sleep system with a bit of room to move around in a limited way.

another option. Oztent RS1 On a stretcher cot. I find this set up nice and comfortable.

Interesting. I was looking at the Kakadu version a while back, but the extra bulk was a turn off.
