GSI Outdoors Microfiber Towel Ultralight

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

A lightweight, highly absorbent towel that is versatile enough to work for hikers, backpackers and travellers alike. The low weight and bulk mean that it is easy to pack and forget about until needed.

Cocoon says

Super-lightweight, extremely fast drying towel made of soft microfiber. Soaks up 4 times its weight in water! Comes in a tiny mesh stuff sack.

Our Verdict

Cocoon’s Microfiber Towel Ultralight uses a design that soaks up impressive amounts of water for the size and weight of the towel. The majority of this water can be wrung out easily and the towel dries really quickly. A simple hang loop allows you to hang it up for drying wherever suits you.

This towel comes in four sizes depending on your needs, from a small hand towel size through to an XLarge bath towel size. All of the towels have an impressively low pack size to go with the low weight. These are perfectly suited to travellers of all types, whether backpacking across the continent, hi,king in the mountains or simply for convenience on work trips.
