I have used many a different trekking towel or whatever is to hand at the time to dry myself but all have their limitations. The Mountain Junky Field Towel however is extremely versatile. No only is the towel lightweight and ultra absorbent in fact, 4 x more so than cotton it is also extremely soft and, as with all our bamboo range naturally antibacterial meaning it can be used over and over again without becoming smelly. Add to this the versatility of the towel which can be used as a scarf, bandana, sweat rag or hat whilst still being fit for purpose as a towel at the end of a hard day.
