Top Rated: Lightwave RAP-VAP Towel (8.3 / 10)

Category: Best Lightweight (~100g) Trekking Towel

Lightwave's RAP-VAP Towel

It's a towel, it gets you dry. It's a premium towel made from a 140g/sm, silver-infused Polartec baselayer fabric. Unlike micro-fibre towels, it kind of wipes the moisture off you without getting soaked itself. It weighs very little and packs down extremely small.

If you value an efficient drying off and appreciate a lighter pack and not having to carry the excess moisture of a damp towel on your back then the price premium for this little sackless towel may be worth paying. We think it is and that's why the Lightwave RAP-VAP is our top choice in the trekking towel category.
