I have two of these as my only every-day towels, got them around 3 years ago adn they still perform just as well as on the first day. However, the one I got my husband is only about 1,5 years old, and it's gotten to the point where the towel has a stale, mildewy-smell even straight out of the washing machine. Since I can't use bleach on it, or wash it in high temperatures, there's really not much I can do besides tossing it and getting a new one, which is of course, disappointing and not sustainable.

I purchased this for my son for Christmas who already has one. He uses it when he and his family go camping. He told me it dries quickly and is compact, doesn't take up much room when packing for their weekend camping.

Love these towels!!! So soft and super absorbent. Made with natural fibers, feels way better than a microfiber towel.

This was used on a recent camping trip. Loved how easily it dried out in the sun after a number of lake swims.

One of the things I find this most useful for is that, when I get a leg cramp at home, I can run it under really hot water, wring it out and then wrap it around where the cramp is. Instant relief! However, the one I have is really old and I need to replace it but I don't see the same size listed here. It's about 8in x 32in...long and narrow. I like the original--seems to be made of felt--and I don't much like microfiber, so would prefer this. Did you discontinue that size or am I looking in the wrong place?

I love this product, but have lost the carrying case. Is it possible to get a replacement? How would I go about requesting one?

After about 10 years of use for a month or two each year on backpacks/cycle tours etc it finally lost it's odour-free quality. Apart from that it still behaves exactly as the manufacturer said in the ads, light weight, compact, excellent drying ability, no smell, quick drying for re-use. Perfect! I'll be buying a new one.

When camping or backpacking, you need a reliable utility towel that's both super absorbent and quick drying. The PackTowel Original is the perfect answer to both. The Original is a superabsorbent outdoor towel that's perfect for outdoor and camping use. The heavy-duty, quick-drying towel comes in a variety of sizes to meet any utility need, whether cleaning up in a camp kitchen, wiping down the outside of your wet tent, to mopping up water in your boat or as utility towel around the workshop. It's made from a natural, sustainable fiber-based fabric that softens with every wash, so it only gets better with age.
The PackTowel Original dries 40% faster than comparable cotton towels and can soak up to 10 times its weight in water which can be wrung out easily. A convenient hang loop lets you hang it out of the way to dry, and it comes with a mesh storage pouch with a zipper closure for easy packing and transporting. Made of a compostable, fiber-based fabric, the PackTowel Original is machine washable and only gets softer with each wash. Towel is available in multiple sizes. The size medium measures (L x W) 22" x 12" (56cm x 30cm) and a dry weight of 1 oz. (28 g), size large measures (L x W) 36" x 16.5" (92cm x 42cm) and a dry weight of 2.1 oz. (62.4 g) and the size x-large measures (L x W) 54" x 25" (137cm x 64cm) and a dry weight of 4.4 oz. (125 g).
