Microfibre is the new material that has proved to be n excellent material for making towels. Even more exciting is that it is the traveller’s new best friend.
This new material is revolutionary to the make- up of towels, due to the way it is produced its thousands of tiny filaments are able to absorb up to eight times its weight in water giving it excellent drying properties. In the same manner they also dry extremely quickly thus ideal for that late afternoon swim in the pool and then be stored away.
MICROFIBRE – THE TRAVELLERS BEST FRIEND
Where your conventional cotton towels are big and bulky and usually weigh heavy, the microfibre travel towels are really lightweight and compact. Every 9000 filaments weigh only one gram. This is ideal for the back packer wanting to travel light or the jet setter where every gram counts. This is also evident when folding the towel ready to pack as the microfibre travel towel folds to 1/5 of your conventional towel. Most microfibre travel towels come in its own travel case with a mesh window to help the drying process. Have you ever noticed that musty smell on your old towel? Well with your microfibre towel that is all a thing of the past as they all have an anti bacterial coating to prevent the growth of mold and mildew if your towel is put away damp, something that frequently happens when you are travelling.
As an example of their versatility and size the giant travel towels is a vast 124 cm x 100 cm when it is fully opened out but packs away to an impressive 21cm x 16cm x 4cm and weighs a mere 450grams.

Jacobs & Turner bought out their Trespass range in 1984 and provide a superb range in fashion and function for all you hikers and other outdoor pursuits and travel.
The Trespass Giant Gecko Towel is a popular choice measuring 120cm x 100xm. This can be used as a nice beach mat due to its size and is also large enough o wrap around you after your dip in the sea. Some people do not like the touch of the soft, velvety microfibre towels and prefer the conventional cotton. For these, Trespass has come up with the Life Adventure Microfibre Trek Towel and like all others it has the same antibacterial coating and a handy carry pouch. You will find there is a towel to suit every need.
