I find it cliché that the guy in the video is wearing a beanie and has a neck beard.
One thing to note though is that flushable wipes are not in fact flushable and will cause clogs in the city's sewer system. You also can not leave them in the crapper in the BWCA, you would have to pack them out with you. Toilet paper dissolves in water, wet wipes of any kind don't.

Dude Wipes are awesome, but I couldn't find a smaller pack suitable for putting in a backpack/possibles pouch like a typical Wet Ones. Thankfully Wet Ones are easy to find, in a properly sized pack, and work just as well. I do appreciate the nice large wipes at home though, great way to put a mirror finish on if you know what I mean.

I don't fit their demographic. I'm to old to be a 'Dude'.
But they are sold in over 4000 stores nationwide and they claim to be 'septic' certified' if there is an actual certification lab. So poop away and feel fresh, AND clean when you're done.

Not exactly true. Some wipes are flushable like Cottenelle fresh care flushable wipes . Watch the video and it shows they dissolve in water. “Put the right wipes down your pipes”.

I've already looked -- there is a large pack, and a smaller pack of individually wrapped wipes. I don't want all that trash, I just want a smaller pack with all of the wipes in it (again just like a small pack of Wet Ones).

Wow, $15.99 for 3 packs? I think I'm "Man enough" to use the cheaper baby wipes without emasculating myself by using something with the name "Pampers" on it for less than 1/3 the price?

Next time hand him a pine cone. Haha."
What's wrong with pine cones? They have lots of ridges so you can make sure you're clean. So what if they scrape away some skin too...

I like Stallmates (got them on Amazon) because they come individually wrapped and are easy to pack along on long day trips or for travel.
Dollar Shave Club has some called "One Wipe Charlies" that I really like, too. They're more expensive than Stallmates, though.

Agree. Nothing new under the sun. "Manly" wipes.......just clever packaging and marketing underscoring male insecurities.
