When TOKYO CRAFTS developed the UT Cot, they set out to solve 3 main problems. One, cots that squeak every time you move. Two, fabric that sags until you're touching the ground. And three, setups that feel like a workout before your camp trip even really starts.Tension was the starting point. If the fabric was pulled too tight, assembly becomes a chore. Too loose, and the support disappears. With that in mind, materials, frame structure, and dimensions were rebuilt from scratch, with tension adjusted in millimeter increments and repeatedly field tested until a balance was found between stable support and easy setup. The included storage bag was designed with the same mindset. Instead of being tucked away until it's time to pack down, it doubles as a pillow or small gear pouch, cutting down on dead weight and single use parts.
