TRAVEL LIGHT GO FURTHER.
STITCHES + STEEL is a Philosophy captured by these four words.
We believe that a vehicle can set you free. Our mission requires a unique approach.
Utilising Marine-grade hardware, while optimising for the best in Automotive design, we find both the form and function required to allow these 'rooms that move' to breathe.
This is traveling light, going further and celebrating what that mindset can be capable of.
Declutter, Lose the noise and take your adventures further.

You can fit a canopy or awning to the gutter using a pole and clamps and there is also a second channel for fitting your awning directly if it has a Kador or bolt rope like our own Tarp awning. Strong and light this awning rail is mill finished, perfect for painting or powder coating should you wish to colour match. | T5/T6/Crafter | £225.00 |
