Compact, reusable Skoy Cloths
help campers and boaters travel light as well as leave a lighter footprint on the environment. And when they wear out, they’re biodegradable. Space is always at a premium when
packing for the outdoors. Reusable Skoy Cloths are ideal for the outdoors because they replace up to 15 rolls of paper towels with a lightweight, 7-inch square cloth that can absorb 15 times its own weight. Skoy Cloths owe their absorbency
and durability to a combination of natural cotton and wood-pulp cellulose. Most effective for use on hard surfaces, they do double duty by both absorbing liquids as well as washing and drying surfaces. The cloths are 100 percent biodegradable, chlorine free, machine washable and can last for weeks if not months depending on use. When they have reached the end of their life, they can be composted for a no-waste solution. Skoy Cloths come in a variety of
colors printed with fun designs using water-based inks and dyes, and can be special ordered with a custom logo if desired. Skoy Coths cost $6.99 for a 4-pack from the Skoy website,
