Why a Packtowl® towel and not a cotton towel?
A Packtowl towel is lighter, far more absorbent and compact, and dries extremely fast. Unlike cotton, when you wring out a Packtowl towel, 90% of the liquid is released, leaving it instantly ready for more.
What is the difference between the material used in all the Packtowl towels?
The Packtowl Original towel is made from a super-absorbent and 100% natural viscose (wood fiber) material. The Packtowl Personal, Ultralite and Nano towels are made from a supple microfiber blend of polyester and nylon. The Packtowl Original towel is more absorbent than the others but not as soft to the touch.
