My Favorite Gear: Lava Linens Travel Towels
My Favorite Gear: Lava Linens Travel Towels
Yes, a towel is my favorite piece of outdoor gear.
Why?
1. It is versatile, and I use it during daily adventures, long road trips, and on backcountry expeditions.
2. Lava Linens towels are made from ethically sourced, natural fibers
3. They’re lightweight, durable, and more effective than microfiber towels
4. Lava Linens is a small, woman-owned company
In this review, I go over three amazing towel options: everything towel, woven wonders towel, and the travera towel
UPDATED DETAILS: Towels are up to 50% more absorbent than microfiber towels. I said five times (Oops!). The Travera is about equal to microfiber while the Woven Wonders and Everything Towels are up to 50% depending on the microfiber towel.
The sewn in label on the Travera (sometimes also referred to as tags) is cotton, not the tags. You’ll notice the other sewn in labels are synthetic. Hang tags are made from recycled paper ,and hemp string!
