When it comes to fitness gym towels, the two most common materials used are microfiber and cotton. Within the microfiber material range, there are different fabric forms such as microfiber full polyester, microfiber double-sided fleece, and microfiber waffle. The three most commonly used microfiber types are perfect for fitness towels. To determine which material is more suitable, you need to consider the following points:
1. Water Absorption:
If you only consider water absorption, cotton is better than microfiber. However, cotton takes longer to dry than microfiber, especially double-sided fleece or waffle.
2. Skin Friendliness:
When it comes to skin friendliness, the popular microfiber double-sided fleece is better than cotton.
3. Quick Dryness:
Microfiber is better than cotton when it comes to quick-drying properties. It doesn’t tend to have an unpleasant smell, and it dissipates moisture quickly, making people feel fresh.
4. Lightweight:
Microfiber is generally lighter and thinner than cotton towels. It doesn’t take up much space and is convenient to carry.
5. Flexible Order Quantity:
Microfiber towels are generally better if you want to customize logos. You can order as few as 10 or 20. However, for pure cotton, you may need to order at least 100 pieces.
6. Customization Flexibility:
Microfiber double-sided velvet and waffle can achieve double-sided customization, showing the logo on both sides of the towel. Cotton, on the other hand, is less flexible and can only be printed on one side, leaving the other side white terry in most cases.
