The Official Towel of the Los Angeles County Lifeguard Association, YogaRat"s SportLite RatTowel line is perfect for home, gym, beach and travel. Old-school terry-cloth beach towels not only take up tons of space when you"re packing for the beach, they"re like magnets for sand once you get there. The over-sized Beach + Pool SportLite RatTowel, made of super-absorbent, lint-free microfiber that"s incredibly soft to the touch yet extremely durable, will barely take up a corner of your beach bag, won"t trap sand, and dries so fast it"s like having a fresh towel every time you need to dry off. And a perfectly placed sewn-in loop makes it a breeze to hang from a hook. Machine washable/dryable (wash cold with like colors, no bleach or fabric softener; tumble dry low). All SportLite RatTowels not only pack much smaller than their old-school terry counterparts, they take up dramatically less space in the laundry, conserving water and energy. SportLite RatTowels: towels with a whole new Rattitude! And be sure to check out the small size Hand + Face Towel 2-pack, and our medium-size Sport + Bath Towel. We recommend washing RatTowels separately before use.
