Swim Feral Factory Seconds

We are proud to be able to say that our Turtleback and Terrapin bags are handmade just up the road with quality, recycled materials by expert bag makers with decades of experience. The factory has been manufacturing bags for outdoor adventures since 1932.

By the very nature of being handmade on a busy factory floor, there can sometimes be stitching errors or the material can end up marked from machinery.

These slightly imperfect products are still completely usable. To avoid them going unused and unloved we have made them available to buy at a reduced price.

Each of our factory seconds has a unique fault or mark but these do not compromise the functionality of the bag; they still provide lots of room for your swim kit plus a place to stand and keep your feet warm and dry while you get changed.

We will update quantities as and when they become available but we cannot guarantee specific colours or varieties will ever be sold as a factory second.

It’s brilliant!!!"
