Gossamer Gear Pocket Towel

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Available in a variety of sizes from XL to S, these lightweight micro towels punch well above their weight, perfect in a day bag, a gym locker, or your multiday trekking bag.

Sea To Summit says: 

The Pocket Towel really will fit into a jacket pocket – yet when unpacked, it has soft, thirsty nature. Its silky surface absorbs three times its weight in water, then dries quickly. Supplied with a soft, zippered EVA case, the Pocket Towel is ideal for longer adventures, trips to the gym, or even as a handy accessory to keep in the car.

Our Verdict

Super absorbent and incredibly packable these towels are fantastic to have on you whenever you are in the outdoors or traveling in general, I take the smallest one just for keeping my glasses clean and dry.

Made from an incredibly light microfiber yarn that can absorb 3 times its own weight in water, the towel feels fantastic and silky next to the skin.  The towel dries incredibly quickly, I attach mine to the back of my rucksack if it’s been used and it dries incredibly quickly, even on overcast days.

It packs down into a very small and neat-looking carry case, however, if you’re gram counting, it can be stashed in your rucksack.
