The safe antibacterial treatment keeps odors at bay between washings. Towels remain soft and supple. Don’t let the softness fool you, you’ll wear out long before this towel does!

This is Not a typical towel, for best results don’t rub, just pat skin dry.

Just how small are these towels?

The Medium, when folded, is approximately the size of a cell phone AND they pack even smaller and can be squished into very tiny spaces.

Washing Instructions for Discovery Trekking towels - Machine wash and dry or hang to dry.

Note: Should you find any smell lingering on your towels it is generally a result of body oil, lotions, deodorants etc... To “unclog” the fibers and refresh your towel we recommend the following. Wash in warm or hot water without detergent, adding 1 cup of vinegar. Wash a 2^nd time without detergent, adding ½ cup baking soda. They will be as good as new! We're also told adding Borax or Washing Soda (found in most grocery stores) works well.
