Frogg Toggs Chilly Pad Cooling Towel
If the weather is hot, a Chilly Pad Cooling Towel is the answer! It’s ideal for any hot, strenuous activity, from team sports and lawn care to a killer workout in the gym. Just keep it nearby for a quick cool down. The Chilly Pad Cooling Towel is made from a hyper-evaporative material that retains water while remaining dry to the touch. When wet, these cooling towels begin to evaporate and cool, providing cool, soft comfort to the user. When it stops cooling, simply re-wet it in hot or cold water and wring it out, within minutes, it's cool again.
How does it work?
The Chilly Pad material is highly absorbent, (like a sponge) and can absorb up to 8 times its weight in water. Once wet, the towel produces a cooling affect with the help of simple evaporation. As long as the towel is wet, exposed to the air, and allowed to "breath"... the Chilly Pad will evaporate... and cool.
How do I care for my Chilly Pad?
Once it is removed from the plastic packaging, wet the towel thoroughly, wring out any excess water, and allow the towel to begin evaporating. If the towel becomes soiled or dirty, machine or hand wash with standard clothing detergent and rinse completely. Store the towel in its original storage tube, in a plastic bag or hang it up and store it dry.
What if my Chilly Pad starts to smell?
If the towel has been stored damp and develops mildew or an odor, add 1 tablespoon bleach to 1 gallon of warm water and allow the towel to soak for an hour or two. The towel can now be washed in the washing machine to remove any residual stains. Be sure to always wash the towel before storing.
Can I put it in the refrigerator?
Yes to the refrigerator... but no for the freezer. Placing it in the freezer will cause the towel to become brittle. However, placing the towel in a plastic bag and popping it in the fridge is no problem!
How long will the Towels last?
With proper care and storage, the towels will last, and continue to provide evaporative cooling for several years.
Can I cut my Towel?
Sure! No problem. Each towel has an internal mesh reinforcing material that will allow you to cut it into any shape that fits your needs.
Can I wear it under my clothes?
We don't recommend it. In order to evaporate effectively, the towels should be allowed to breath, and be exposed to air when in use.
Is the Chilly Pad recyclable?
Yes... In fact... the Organic nature of the material allows that the towel (when tattered, torn, and ready to throw away) can actually be ground up, and blended with soil to help dry soil retain moisture. It is completely inert, and will slowly decompose... and become a part of the environment.
