She wee?

So I have embarked on some longer multipitch routes and have found places to squat before, but am looking for the best way to pee on multipitch with the least amount of disruption to my clothing. Anyone use something by similar and how has it worked?

Eh, I use those when traveling, and I feel like a She Wee would require just as much de-pantsing as regular squatting cause you really have to get it between your legs to work. Then it’s just one more thing you have to haul around with you on a multipitch, and that thing is also covered in your pee.

I’ve been toying around with the idea of sewing an extended zipper that goes all the way along the crotch area of my climbing pants, that way I could keep my harness on and just unzip and pee. Alas, I’m lazy so this hasn’t happened yet.

Honestly on sketchier ledges, I wrap my PAS or a sling around my waist and clip in direct to the anchor or whatever pro, that way when I take off my harness to pee I still have something anchoring me to the wall. But this is definitely not the safest solution.

As someone who has to pee like every 45 minutes, I think about this a lot.

I got a plastic thing back when I was doing a lot of alpine mountaineering and planning for Denali. I find it very useful for ice climbing and winter mountaineering. I don't use it on summer climbs.

I’m a fan of the Pstyle as well.

Another thumbs up here for the PStyle. Great colors, easy to use, and you can get a little fabric case for it. I use mine ice and rock climbing, but cannot speak to its big wall utility.

pstyle seems popular- so my biggest thing is I’m doing Epinephrine and it being super crowded all the time I want to not put my butt on display for the world to see lol. I also tend to pee all over my shoes every time I pee with a harness on.  Lol

The Pstyle can be used on a multipitch with a harness on but it requires care and a little finesse.

There are also chickfly pants which are not a zipper like the shefly, but an overlapping fabric design. I haven't tried them but am impressed by their photos of how you can move around without exposure, even climbing. https://chickfly.com/

I use the terribly-named Freshette. https://freshette.com/. It takes some practice to get the angles right but I like it for crowded areas where you don't want to hang your butt out in the wind. It comes with a little opaque Ziploc to keep things clean. I haven't used an open trough-style like the Pstyle.
