Stay Cool with a PVA Evaporative Cooling Towel

Caroselli: I have noticed that no other ones compared to 02Cool. And then I tried this because it seemed to be the same type of fabric. I play golf in Texas, where it is hotter than the devils breath.
I was having trouble finding what I was looking for at a reasonable price. Anyway, I got this in and oh my God it is my new favorite cooling towel. It stayed cool for at least a good two hours before I put some more ice water on it. Even just a little bit of water was able to make it nice and cold again and extremely helpful in the 104° weather. Don’t waste your money on the other ones. I think I have tried just about every single cooling cloth out there. This one and the O2 cool seem to be the only ones that actually stay cool for hours.

SkinnyRR: Functions well as a cool towel on a hot day - functionality seems to last longer than a regular towel

Jen: Wearing this currently to an outside concert. It was 102 today to start and is still 95 out. I’ve only had to wet it one additional time and shake it out since I’ve put it on and it’s remained cool. Highly recommend! Much better than the other types!

YuenXYuenX: I am an avid hiker, camper, and wilderness backpacker, and primarily take these kind of trips in California/Utah/Arizona weather where it can get quite hot. For a long time, I had always dipped my hat into the cold, running streams or lake to keep myself momentarily cool, and that also meant having the water drip onto my shirt for additional cooling. However, this relief would usually subside in 30 minutes after the hat has completely dried up in the sun.

On many of my hikes, I had also seen many wear a towel around the neck (a popular practice in Korea and Japan), and one day -- I do not remember how -- this Chill Pal towel caught my attention. The overwhelming number of positive reviews further picked my interest, particularly at a time when my toddler son was having a 100F fever the night before. I thought that I would give one a try to not only help cool him down, but to also use as a hiking towel.

PROS
- Keeps my neck cool, and as a result, makes the hot weather very bearable
- Maintained moisture (and cooling effect) for over an hour
- Did not feel drenched, though it does wet the top of the shirt a bit like any other towel
- GREAT customer service....

Elliemay y.: The product is great and works extremely well especially after sporting activities and super easy to use. Just wish it was a little bit bigger :)

ShadyShady: The towel arrived on time & felt cold when I opened it which I took as a good sign.
It stays cold for a long time & isn't too heavy.
It has a real futuristic feel to the material. Like silky rubber but it doesn't have a rubbery smell which is nice.
I'm looking forward to summer when I will be able to get full use out of it.

miss sarah woolley: This is the third one of these I've had and I they are truly amazing. I've used others (including the soft polyester type ones) but this outshines them all. So many great uses - I use mine for medical needs as I overheat massively during fits and the towel stays lovely and cool for a good couple of hours. Also I've worn them as scarves on hot days!

Rebecca: I bought this for mum, she gets very hot, when on holidays. Because of her eczema skin, she doesn't sweat she goes red in the face. So this is the perfect solution, she has already tested it, and more than happy with it. She cant wait to take on the next holiday we due to go on. Plus the seller of this item will give you tips on to take care of this item.

JSPLJSPL: Extremely pleased! Went on vacation for a week where the sun was fierce and the temperature was in the high 90s every day.

The Amazon reviews are favorable but seem to be written primarily by people who received a free sample. I researched other sources and found a consumer report review of a couple similar products, though not this particular brand. The review of those products were discouraging, reporting that their infared camera recorded identical temperature readings with a standard wet cotton towel. I'm not sure if Chill Pal is an exception but they felt startlingly cold and not just "cool." Curious people in our tour group asked to touch the towels, wondering just how cool the towels really got and all responded with great surprise. Regardless of the actual towel temperature, it should be mentioned that these towels hold moisture and their cool temperature much longer than a standard towel, without being dripping wet like a cotton towel.

Interestingly, our luggage was delayed so we were without our Chill Pals for the initial three days. I can not emphasize enough the difference the towels made!! The initial days were unbearable and exhausting, and we were...
