Does anything beat a fresh towel after a workout?

WE LOVE:

  • That fresh comforting feeling of a towel after a relaxing shower or workout...
  • without that damp odorous smell… that builds up over time

BUT DID YOU KNOW:

  • Nasty smells come from the odorous constituents of our sweat …
  • … but also from the bacteria that feeds on the fats from your sweat …
  • … and this odor continues to manifest in a damp towel
