Having a sport towel on hand is a must for most sweaty gym-goers. While having a towel to wipe off sweat is ideal, there's one problem: lugging it around everywhere. The 'Hooded Infinity Sport Towel' created by the Laura Alison brand from Huntington, New York, is a portable and stylish solution to that problem.
Based off of the fashionable infinity scarf, this sport towel can be thrown around the shoulders and worn as a hood. People can wipe sweat off at anytime and cover their heads if need be when headed outside with wet hair. The issue of losing a towel is minimized and gym-goes won't have to worry placing the towel on unclean surfaces.
The towel would also be a great item for companies in the sports and health industries. Gyms can offer the towel to clients as a benefit, sports teams can sell the item with their brand to fans and perhaps this item might be a great addition to hijab-wearing women who like to workout.
