Which Size Gym Towel Is Best?

Finding the Perfect Size for Your Workout

Sweating it out at the gym is a great way to stay healthy and fit. But let’s face it, lugging around a giant bath towel isn’t exactly ideal. On the other hand, a tiny hand towel might not be enough to tackle a full workout. So, what’s the perfect size gym towel?

Finding the Perfect Fit

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to gym towels. The ideal size depends on your individual needs and workout preferences. Here are some key factors to consider:

  • Coverage: You want a towel that’s large enough to comfortably cover the areas you sweat the most, like your face, neck, and back.
  • Portability: A bulky towel can be cumbersome to carry around the gym, especially if you’re switching between machines or classes.
  • Drying Efficiency: A larger towel will have more surface area for drying off quickly after your workout.
  • Personal Preference: Ultimately, the best size gym towel is the one that you find most comfortable and convenient to use.

The Contenders

Many businesses offer around the 40x80cm size for their gym towels. While definitely lightweight and convenient, this size lacks a bit of practicality and absorption capacity.

We researched other businesses in the market, and got some really useful feedback from real product users. As a result, we opted for a taller and wider design, 100x60cm. Not too big, and definitely not too small.

So, why might a 100cm x 60cm towel be the ideal size? Here’s the breakdown:

  • Spacious Coverage: This size offers ample space to comfortably wipe down your entire body after a workout.
  • Manageable Portability: While not the smallest option, it’s still a manageable size to fold and carry in your gym bag.
  • Drying Power: With a decent amount of surface area, this size towel can efficiently absorb sweat and help you dry off quickly.

The Final Takeaway

The 100cm x 60cm gym towel offers a great balance between coverage, portability, and drying efficiency. Check out all of our eco-friendly, quick-drying gym towels here!
