If you’ve ever pulled a damp towel out of a bag on day three of a camping trip and been hit by a pong you’d rather scrub from your olfactory memory forever, you’ll appreciate the anti-niff properties of this copper-infused towel. Especially useful if you’re living out of a van or bag for days at a time.

The Copper Clothing Antimicrobial Cotton Towel is 100% cotton and it’s properly soft and absorbent, without the sensory hell hat is a microfibre situation, and it’s infused with copper ions that actively destroy bacteria and fungi on contact. Practically speaking this means no musty smell between uses, even when you haven’t been able to wash it for a few days.

For multi-day camping trips or van life, this is genuinely useful. When storage space is tight, laundry visits aren’t possible or are perhaps irregular, a towel that can go longer between washes without becoming a biohazard is one less thing to think about.

The towel measures 125 x 70cm, so it’s a roughly bath-towel size. At 500 GSM it feels more like something you might find at a hotel compared to the usual microfibre towels, which do the job, but just don’t give you that satisfying proper towel feel.

It’s not the cheapest towel on the market, but it’s also not disposable – the copper infusion is built into the fibres, not a coating that washes off after a limited number of uses, so it lasts the lifetime of the towel and keeps on doing its thing long-term.

We’ve scored it 4.5 out of 5, simply because I usually choose, and prefer, colourful towels that are slightly larger, but Mark has happily yoinked this one from me for his camping kit bag.
