MAX-TREME®

Our unique Max-Treme® is a specifically designed and constructed canvas used exclusively by Darche in our core range of swags. Darche are one of very few that still use a 100% cotton canvas composition in its core range of swags, which allows for maximum breathability, and super durability in our entire swag range.

�Super strong & durable with its 52 x 48 Ripstop weave

�Max-treme® is constructed using 100% cotton ring spun yarn, allowing maximum breathability, aiding in reducing condensation

�Proofed weight is an impressive 550gsm/16oz making it one of the heaviest swag canvas weights on the market today

�Proofing is conducted using a double pass dip & dry method, unlike many inferior imported poly/cotton canvases which use a synthetic blade coat PU method which eliminates all cloth breathability characteristics

CANVAS CAREWe recommend that new canvas Darche swags and tents are thoroughly wet down before first use. This will ensure that your swag or tent performs well in wet weather by allowing the poly/cotton corespun thread and canvas to swell ensuring the take up of any potential leaks in the stitching.

• Do not use soap or detergents on the canvas.

• Do not store the product if wet, allow to dry first.

• To clean use a soft brush and cold water.

• Do not expose to petrol, oils or harsh chemicals.

CONDENSATIONCondensation is a natural occurrence in cold weather. In confined areas like swags and tents the body releases more moisture than the canvas can dispose of. To minimise the chance of condensation, we recommend slightly opening the window of the swag or tent to enable airflow on cold nights.

• Hand wash only.

• Wash seperately in warm water using mild detergent.
