SILVERSPORT Fitness Silver Towel: Review and

What causes odor?  BACTERIA!  I try not to dwell on that fact when the workout clothes/towels my company allows me to check out and borrow at the PE "cage" start to smell fifteen minutes into a workout.  I actually love the fact that I'm sweating but HATE the fact that the odor coming from my t-shirt or towel isn't mine! It  is a brew of who knows sweat bacteria since the clothing is washed after every use but re-used by various employees over and over again.  As a frequent user of sports towels (required at my gym), when I found out about the Silver Towel I was most definitely eager to try it. 
The SilverSport Silver Towel™ provides an extra layer of protection against odor- causing bacteria that other fitness towels just can’t beat. Thanks to revolutionary new Terra Silver™ technology that utilizes antimicrobial silver, the Silver Towel keeps your workouts cleaner than ever by eliminating odor-causing bacteria in your towel.

How does it work? The nanosilver particles incorporated into all SilverSport products are activated by moisture, such as sweat or water. Once activated, the product begins releasing silver ions, which immediately start eliminating odor-causing bacteria on contact. The Silversport motto is "keeping sports clean". 

My husband and I both enjoyed trying out the Silver Towel.  It is super soft and absorbent and can conveniently be washed with any of our other clothes.  I like the stretchiness of the fabric and what I consider to be the perfect size, 20 x 30".  It also come in a 20 X 60" size for heavy duty drying!  If there is one thing that I would change about this product it would be that the backside of the towel on the side that has the writing,  the raised letters can be a little scratchy if you are wiping the sweat off your face.  The other side of the towel, however, is super soft.   I will love it if my company's work out center ever adopts the  technology and motto that SilverSport is all about!
