Mintra microfiber towels: pick the size by the job

Mintra makes its towels in microfiber, which it describes as quick drying and super absorbent, drying faster than normal cloth or cotton towels. The size is what changes from one towel to the next.

• Smallest size: Mintra says its smallest microfiber towel is for the gym or for drying your hair.
• 65 x 90 cm: a swimming towel for children, or a quick-drying towel for an adult after a swim.
• 80 x 130 cm: for sports, and for drying your body and hair after bathing or swimming.
• Beach sizes: the Printed Terry Microfiber Beach Towel comes in L (140 x 70 cm) and 105 x 175 cm. The Microfiber Towel XL is 110 x 175 cm and still folds into a sports bag.

For kids there are hooded beach towels with a hood that protects the head and hair. There is also the Robel swimming robe, in light, fast-drying fabric with a belt.

Backpacks for school, gym and travel

The New Printed 20L Backpack is lightweight, made of water-resistant polyester, with a sleeve for tablets and laptops up to 12 inches. The DayPack 3 Pocket (24 L) adds a padded laptop pocket and a matching pencil case, and the DayPack 4-Pocket (30 L) is built for school and college. The Travel Backpack is cabin-friendly and made of waterproof nylon. It comes in a medium 40 x 30 x 20 cm and a large 45 x 36 x 20 cm.

Cooler bags and duffles

Mintra's cooler range includes the 10 L Printed Cooling Lunch Bag for school. The 8 L High Insulation bag folds flat, and the 23 L Hard Cooler Tank Bag has a removable hard plastic box. For the gym there are the Large, Small and Flexo duffle bags and a 48 x 28 x 28 cm Tank Bag.

If you swim often, start with a 65 x 90 cm microfiber towel and a 20 L printed backpack. See more in towels, swimming accessories and kids' accessories.
