One thing I never pack when traveling to the islands or anywhere warm for that matter is a beach towel. The conventional terry cloth beach towels are pretty bulky when folded up and are a “no-go” when we’re traveling light. My wife and I typically bring a roller carry-on and towels never make the cut. Yet it’s one item we do dearly miss once at the beach. So we end up purchasing the crappy water repelling $12 beach towel with some shitty colors and a tacky design. Then we end our trip by donating those cheap towels to the rental property. Only to rinse and repeat on our next vacation. Fortunately, Rumpl, one of my favorite companies, has produced the answer to our conundrum. The Everywhere Towel.
Thin and packable Rumpl Everywhere Towel
Rumpl is best known for their amazing Down Blanket and several variations of the Original Puffy Blanket. But these folks strayed a bit and came up with the be-all-end-all towel. Spun from 85% polyester & 15% spandex, this super supple fabric has an unbelievable rate of water absorption. All while maintaining a very thin profile. Additionally, the fabric resists stains, sand, odor and pet hair. Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, I can confirm that it lives up to the claim. Because I have sand, a Siberian Husky and two kids that both stink and spill everything they get their hands on. Yet the machine washable Everywhere Towel looks as good today as the day I opened it.

Final Thoughts:
After using the Everywhere Towel all summer on our boat excursions, I’ve outfitted my family of four with their own towels. Mainly to mitigate the battle for the lone towel. Also because they work wonderfully, look great and don’t take up much space on the boat. A major organizational plus for the boat captain. Now we’ll have a beach towel that meets the size criteria for travel as well as many additional features not found in the typical cotton terry beach towel. It folds up to a size similar to that of a tee shirt. And if you haven’t heard of Rumpl, I urge you to head over to their website and check out what they’ve got going on. Having tested and purchased several personal items from Rumpl, they continue to impress me with thoughtful, high-quality products.
