If you need a towel that dries quickly, then I’ve got a good towel for you. I got sent 2 towels from a company in Canada called Discovery Trekking Outdoors. Now I met these ultra fast drying towels. They’re similar material to what you might see in some of your race competition shirts, if you do triathlons, it’s that quick drying stuff. This is a little bit stretchier than those shirts and it’s not fluffy like a normal towel. But the good thing about these towels is that they dry very well and they dry quickly. And they are lighter than a normal towel.
So this isn’t a paid endorsement for them. They just sent me these 2 towels to try and I found them really good. I’d use them in 2 occasions. The first one is if I have to cycle to training and I didn’t have much space in my backpack, then I’ll take one of these towels because they’re much more compact than a normal towel. So if you’ve got not much space in your backpack, then it’s good to use these towels.
Thank you for your honest review. We agree, they aren’t like conventional towels! Other than drying much faster than other towels and packing into small spaces, the most important benefit is that they contain Silver, which kills bacteria. So, they don’t get musty smelling in a gear bag, and stay fresher between washings. Thanks again for taking the time to review the towels!
