  1. Essential for a western paddle 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 28th Oct 2014

    I bought this for a four day paddle in western NSW and would recommend one for everyone venturing out where the flies are.
    The price was good, the ordering simple and the goods arrived in a flash - great place to shop.
    The headnet keep the bugs away while letting you continue to enjoy the great outdoors.
    Highly recommended!
