Designed with intention:
Lava towels are tightly woven with long, smooth, naturally anti-static fibers so the sand, dirt and leaves remain in the outdoors instead of on your towel, on you, in your pack or in your home.
Instead of setting your keys and sunglasses amongst the rocks at the river's edge, hook them on your towel!
Hypoallergenic, antistatic and without the chemicals microfiber is laced with, your skin will love the instant yet gentle sweat and water absorption experience.
Hemp and TENCELTM are very easy to care for. Simply machine wash your Lava towels in cold water, no hotter than 60 degrees F.
Tumble dry on low heat or hang them to dry.
To achieve maximum absorbency, avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets.
Throw your bath sheet over a table or on the ground for al fresco dining.
Hang up your bath sheet or wrap it around your body for a bit of privacy while you change clothing.
Hang up your bath sheet to block the sun from entering your campsite or your rig.
Wrap and tie your bath sheet around your waist.
Simply loop one corner of the hand towel through the hemp loop and you've got an instant bandana! Pour some cool water on it when you need an instant cooldown.
Keep the sweat and slip away with your new favorite workout accessory.
Perfect for holding a handful of snacks in your lap or as a quick and easy place napkin.
It is literally raining microplastics. One of the main culprits? Synthetic textiles.
"Researchers find that over 1,000 metric tons of microplastics fall on 11 protected areas in the US annually. That’s the equivalent to over 120 million plastic water bottles.”
Matt Simon. “Plastic Rain is the New Acid Rain.” Wired Magazine. June 11, 2020.
The good news is, we can turn this around. Microplastics are tiny fragments from plastic products and plastic fibers shed from our synthetic clothing and gear. By simply opting to use a plant-fiber Lava Linens towel instead of a microfiber towel, you can prevent up to 12 credit cards worth of microplastics from entering our air, water and soil every year.
While microfiber is made from petroleum and contains thousands of chemicals known to harm the environment and human health, hemp and lyocell come from easy to grow, climate-friendly plants.
Hemp is a regenerative carbon sink plant, requiring zero pesticides and 40x less water than cotton to grow.
TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers have gained a commendable reputation for their environmentally responsible closed loop production process, which transforms sustainably sourced wood pulp into cellulosic fibers with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact. This solvent-spinning process recycles process water and reuses the solvent at a recovery rate of more than 99%.
How do I care for my Travera travel towels?
It’s simple! Machine or hand wash in water up to 60 degrees with a gentle spin with like colors. Hang to dry or tumble dry on low heat. Remove promptly.
Are Travera travel towels quick to dry?
Yes! Travera travel towels dry just as fast as most microfiber towels and significantly faster than cotton towels.
Are Travera travel towels packable?
Absolutely! The Travera bath sheet weighs a mere 7.6oz and packs down to the size of a narrow 18oz water bottle. The Travera hand towel weighs 1.9 oz and packs down tiny.
How absorbent are the Travera travel towels?
Very!They absorb the same amount of water as microfiber towels while offering a much better drying experience. They also absorb more water than cotton per ounce of fiber.
Should I expect my Travera Travel Towel to shrink when washed?
Slightly. The dimensions we list (29" x 54") are approximately what you can expect after washing in cold water and drying on low heat.
Do I need to wash my Travera travel towels before I use them?
Yes. You'll notice a significant improvement in absorbency after the first wash. And while the Travera starts out soft, you'll notice it will become even softer the more you use it and wash it. Wear it in!
