In one of our outdoorshops I stumbled a few weeks ago over a leaflet mentioning the "Uribag".
What´s a Uribag?? Well this is a device, in the form of a latex bag, with which you can urinate under circumstances where is less privacy. Such a bag exists in a male- and a female-version:
The moment I saw the leaflet, I instantly thought about the practical use for seakayaking. Honestly I can not see practical use for using the bag in a train or during backpacking or whatever sport. But in a seakayak this could be handy, supposing you have a wetsuite or drysuit with a release-zipper at the right place.
As the leaflet did not mention much information, nor an website-address, I did some searching with google.
And yes, they have a website!
The URL is: www.uribag.com
I am very curious if one of you, readers, heard before of the Uribag. And even more if anyone already tried it in the seakayak.
You are welcome to give your comments.
Below I copied the information from the Uribag-website for your interest:
Many wheelchair users, men who are incontinent and others may have problems urinating in places where there are no special facilities. Standard products that are used to collect and transport urine, such as hospital bottles, are often bulky and conspicuous.
The UriBag® is a convenient solution. Its compact storage tube, efficient shape and Latex construction are superior to any existing product. In every detail, the UriBag® is an improvement for the user. Light, but durable, the UriBag's snap-lock seal does not leak. It is easily stored and can be used discreetly, sealed, then emptied and washed later.
It is even more convenient than adapted urinals. The UriBag® can be carried in a pocket until needed.
For incontinent men who do not wear catheters, the UriBag® is available whenever they need to urinate. It requires only minimal privacy.
For boys and men who are traveling or camping, the UriBag® is a practical solution. Applications for the UriBag® are not limited to medical patients.
