Packtowl Ultralite Towel

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

The Ultralite Towel is now even lighter than before. It’s also highly absorbent, extremely fast drying and super compact. 

Packtowl says

Whether you’re a backpacker, traveler, or just want to save space and weight on your next adventure, the UltraLite quick-drying towel offers the comfort and performance of a full-sized towel in a remarkably lightweight, packable, and ultrafast-drying package.

Our Verdict

When every ounce counts, this ultralight full sized towel is the easy choice for ultralight backpackers, thru-hikers or any minimalist. It weighs a third less than the closest competitor and soaks up 4 times it’s weight in water, which can then be wrung out easily to dry. 

This is the new updated version of the Ultralite Towel with new sizes and new colour options.
