About this item

  • 100% Lyocell
  • COMPRESSED FOR EASY STORAGE, REUSABLE AND LIGHT WEIGHT FOR TRAVEL: If you spend a lot of time on the go, traveling; hiking and camping, saving weight and space in your travel bag, backpack, camping or hiking gear matters. Our hand towel is so light weight at .5oz. We vacuum pack it to a mini tablet coin size which space saves for other packables, like food, water and survival gear. It can also be used over and over to clean, wipe and dry.
  • SUPERB CLOTH: Our towels are made of award winning Lyocell It’s not microfiber but derived from sustainable wood and plant scraps that are breathable, hypoallergenic and burnable. Our camp towels are a wash cloth or a wipe, always clean, fresh in the package and fast drying. A waterproof layer was added to the package so you can swim across the lake and open to a dry towel. Wash the cloth? Just pack in a pocket or mesh camp bag, throw in the machine and clean.
  • MULTIUSE: Lightload Towels were created as a cleaning towel for long distance hiker’s personal care. In time we found they offered more. They are great for first aid as bandages, emergency care as blankets, tactical gear as fire starters, Protective gear for static electricity, and remedies for skin irritations. They store easily in your backpack and luggage also in survival bags and bug out kits, Hunters, fishermen, boy scouts, golfers, cyclists, preppers, gym goers all use the towels.
  • SUPER ABSORBENT QUICK DRY & HYGIENIC: Lightload Towels have superb water management properties. These Swim towels absorb more than 9.5 times their weight. Cotton and microfiber towels don’t come close to this feat. It’s also the excellent water management that wicks water away from your body keeping you cool in the warm and warm in cool weather.
  • SOOTHING ON SKIN: Even the best hikers and backpackers have emergencies. That’s why a Lightload multipurpose towel is a must to prepare. It’s compressed so forget about it until you open to a clean dry cloth. It’s a bio-based fabric made from plants and wood and can be a cure all for many emergencies. Many of earth’s medicines and remedies come from plants and wood. I’ve personally soothed excruciating nettle stings with just applying the dry cloth to the pain.

Wow! That's a Towel?

Wow! That’s a towel? You got to be kidding me. A full-size beach towel that fits in your pocket, unbelievable! Ten to 20 hand towels the weight of a bandana that fit in your purse with room to spare. Come on, What’s the catch? There is none. Advances in material science have been pushing the boundaries as to what is possible and we’ve rode that wave to produce the smallest, lightest most energy efficient towels all with travelers in mind. We’re the originals with over twenty years doing this. Lightload Towels, however, only remain small until you decide to open one. Add water or start wiping water off you then behold, they unfold to a supersize reusable towel. On the other hand, our waterproof round and water-resistant square shape cute packaging, makes you want to keep them packed until you absolutely need them. Oh, and they absorb like a sponge, much more than any other towel material, wick water from your body for cool and heat and quick dry. There’s more to make this purchase worthwhile. Lightload Towels can be used as first aid, static electricity insulation, tinder, padding, a mask and more. Lightload Towels come in three sizes: beach size 30x60” 4.5oz, hand size three pack 12x24” .5oz and Hand size two pack and display box 12x12”.2oz.

Customers like the water resistance of the towel. They say it dries pretty quickly, has decent absorption, and is more than enough to dry you off. Some say it's fine for drying hands and can absorb nearly as much moisture as an equal area of microfiber.

"...Except they're SUPER absorbent, and incredibly durable. They're so lightweight, they add nothing to your pack...." Read more

"...It is so absorbent and easy to dry out!I also tried several other lightweight, compressed towels...." Read more

Must be careful!!! Can be great or can be garbage!
I was excited to find towels that would dramatically reduce the space required to pack towels for drying off after bathing on camping trips and ordered a dozen of them.I read the directions that said the towels must be moistened first in order to unravel them from the way they come vacuumed in a small puck. I did a trial run, moistening and unraveling one towel. It had a strong chemical smell so I decided to unravel and launder all of them before use. I laundered 8 of the 12 in a front load machine on normal wash and dried them on normal heat and they turned out beautifully as shown in the first photo.You can also see in the first photo how small I was able to roll and rubber band them. They are certainly not as small as the original puck, but about a third of the size of a thin towel and that's worth the space saving.However, as you can see from the second and third photos, when I laundered the last 4 towels on a later occasion, disaster struck when I laundered the towels on a normal cycle in an older model- top load machine and dried them on normal. They completely shredded apart and became fuzzy garbage that I'm still trying to get the fuzz out of the rest of the towels that were in that load. The manufacturer is foolishly negligent by not instructing the proper laundering information.The strong chemical smell that the towels have straight out of the package is also unfortunate. I can't imagine anyone comfortably drying themselves off with that smell on the towel. However, if laundered on delicate cycle or in a newer model front load washer, they wash and dry beautifully with no remaining chemical odor.They are not usable as towels directly out of the packaging, but with proper laundering, are hopefully a good space saving resolution to regular towels. I say"hopefully", because I have not used them as towels for drying off after bathing yet. I'll update my review once I have used them for their intended purpose.
