Kula Cloth® is the first of its kind
Kula Cloth® is an antimicrobial pee cloth for all the places you “go.” No more drip drying or hauling in and out a ton of toilet paper on adventures.
In a wilderness setting (or heck, even at a porta potty!), it’s very important to have good hygiene. Traditionally, we either pack in excess amounts of toilet paper and/or employ the ‘shaking off’ method (aka ‘drip dry’). Neither of these are good options. A pee cloth is a way that we can stay comfortable AND have a positive impact on the environment at the same time.
The Kula Cloth® was designed for anybody who squats when they pee (or uses a pee-funnel)! Some people use Kula as a handkerchief or a small washcloth.
Perfect for the Outdoors
Kula Cloth® is perfect for: staying at home, hiking, backpacking, mountaineering, mountain biking, kayaking, whitewater rafting, motorcycling, fly fishing, going to concerts, space travel, camping, rollerblading, skiing, golf, snowshoeing, ice fishing, horseback riding (not on the horse, mind you), underwater basket weaving, motocross, snowmobiling, archaeology expeditions, boating, quidditch matches, traveling, ice skating, sailing, spelunking, canyoneering, musical mountaineering, any type of running (trail, road, ultra), frisbee golf, yoga, ATV riding, treasure hunting, deep sea fishing, hunting, orienteering, curling, geocaching, rock climbing and … well… pretty much, you get the idea.
Leave No Trace is the ethical standard for any wilderness activity. As adventurers, it is our responsibility to protect and preserve our natural spaces. Many people carry toilet paper into the wilderness and scatter it – believing that it will simply ‘disappear’. By using a Kula Cloth®, you are reducing the amount of toilet paper that you have to carry into the wilderness!
How to Use a Kula
How to use a Kula? Simply pee, just like normal (note: in a wilderness setting, good practice is to choose a spot 200ft from natural water sources… pro tip: if you are squatting down, it can be helpful to hold one trekking pole in front of you for stability). Use the plain black dimpled side of the Kula Cloth® to absorb any residual moisture. Since the clean/printed side is waterproof, you don’t need to worry about any liquid soaking through to your hand. Note: the Kula Cloth® is NOT for wiping anything OTHER THAN pee. Do not wipe from front to back like you might with toilet paper – keep the Kula entirely in the pee-zone.
The Kula Cloth snaps to your pack using a durable, hypoallergenic plastic snap. If you want to be discrete about allowing the ‘wipe’ side to be visible, use the double-snap option to fold the cloth in half while it is hanging on your pack.
With many prints to choose from, Kula makes the perfect holiday gift for all of your adventurous friends. (And maybe even get one for yourself!)
