Super absorbent Soft on your skin Quick drying Wicks away moisture Lighter than a bandana   Lightload® Towels are ultralight, super absorbent, quick drying, and soft on your skin. They’re made of Lyocell, a material derived from plants. Lyocell absorbs up to 10 times its own weight. It’s more absorbent than cotton and dries a lot quicker. When the towel gets saturated, just wring it out and keep drying. They'll wick moisture away and dry much more quickly than a bandana. And they’ll keep you cool and dry in the heat and warm and dry in the cold. Two sizes are available. Regular is about 12.5 x 21.5 in. (31.8 x 54.6 cm) and Small about 10.5 x 12.5 in. (26.7 x 31.8 cm). For a smaller size, just cut one down. The towels come compressed like a compact puck. Just add a little water and watch it transform. They are machine washable but we recommend hand washing these towels to keep them from pilling and fraying. With a little care they’ll last until they don’t.   Lots of Uses Drying off after a swim or wash up Wiping condensation off a tent/tarp prior to packing Taking a hot pot off a stove Washing or drying dishes Headband or sun cape Pre-filtering dirty water First aid bandage or sling Roll up wet clothing to speed drying time Dust or insulating mask Pee rag for ladies Emergency TP Firestarter      Care Hand or machine wash with mild soap   Specifications  Material: Lyocell (rayon) Color: Grey only (pastel colors no longer available) Size Towel Size* (W x L) Towel Weight Package Size (Dia x H) Package Weight Small 10.5 x 12.5 in.
