Sports & Gym Towels

Sports and gym towels here cover several different jobs: evaporative cooling towels for hot days, golf towels that clip to a bag, quick-dry microfibre towels for travel and camping, hot yoga towels, and football towels. SHAKEitCOOL makes many of the cooling towels, Sea to Summit and Nomadix cover the packable options, and Callaway, TaylorMade and Titleist make towels for clubs and balls.

Microfibre dries far faster than cotton and packs small, which suits backpacking, swim bags and the gym locker. Cotton-poly caddie towels, like Mizuno's, are heavier but give a familiar plush feel for wiping grips. Look at how the towel attaches: snaps, carabiners and magnets keep a golf towel on the bag or cart. Size matters too, from pocket towels to bath-size sheets of roughly 75 x 150 cm. For trips, see our backcountry camping guide.

Brands include SHAKEitCOOL, Eunzel and Flow Swim Gear.

In this range: yoga, camping hygiene & personal care, on-course golf accessories and bath.

Sports & Gym Towels: frequently asked questions

How do I wash a microfibre towel?

Wash it warm with a small amount of detergent and skip fabric softener, which clogs the fibres and reduces absorbency. Line-dry or tumble on low, and keep it away from lint-heavy cotton loads. If it starts to smell, a rinse with a little vinegar usually helps.

How does a cooling towel work?

You soak it in cold water, wring it out and snap or shake it in the air. As the water evaporates from the fabric, the towel feels cool against your skin. When it dries out, rewet it and repeat. It is most effective in dry heat and a breeze.

Is a yoga towel different from a regular gym towel?

Yes. A yoga towel is cut to mat size and often has a grippy underside, so it stays in place and helps with traction when you sweat. A gym or hand towel is smaller and is meant for wiping off, not for laying over a mat.
