Sea to Summit Airlite Towel
Best ultralight drying solution for minimalist backpackers and international travelers.
This is the ultimate solution for anyone who treats every ounce of pack weight as a liability. It sacrifices the plush, heavy feel of a traditional bath towel for extreme, pocket-sized portability, yet it still manages to absorb three times its weight in water when you actually need to dry off.
