Trivia

  • In Australia, a swagman was a man who traveled between farms looking for work during the Great Depression. He was often seen carrying a swag (bedroll) and a wide-brimmed cork hat. The corks were to keep flies and mosquitoes away from the swagman's face.
  • The backpack icon shows a different texture compared to its original model.
