Shop Gym Towels at Myprotein
A good gym towel is one of those things you don't think about until you don't have one. Hand towels from Myprotein are built for the gym floor — compact enough to toss in your bag, absorbent enough to keep up with your session, and soft enough that you'll actually want to use them.
Available in Black and Storm colourways, these gym hand towels are the kind of kit that quietly earns its place in every workout bag.
Who This Collection Is For
Whether you're a regular at the weights rack, a cardio regular, or someone who just likes to be prepared, a gym towel is an essential bit of kit. These hand towels are sized right for wiping down equipment, mopping your face mid-set, or keeping your grip dry on the bar.
They're just as useful for the casual gym-goer as they are for the serious athlete. If you train, you need one.
When to Use Gym Towels
In the gym, these towels come into their own — wipe down benches between sets, keep sweat off your face during cardio, or keep one tucked into your waistband during a heavy lifting session. The compact size means they're not getting in the way.
They also travel well. Take one to a hotel gym, a fitness class, or anywhere else you're putting in the work. Soft-touch cotton means they feel good against your skin no matter where you use them.

Gym-Ready Sizing
The hand towel format hits a practical sweet spot — large enough to be genuinely useful, small enough that you won't be lugging around unnecessary weight. It's the right size for the gym floor.

FAQs
What are gym towels made from?
MP Hand Towels are made from soft-touch cotton. That means they're comfortable against the skin and absorbent enough to handle a full training session without feeling heavy or waterlogged.
Are these gym hand towels machine washable?
Yes. Cotton towels like these are straightforward to care for — machine wash as normal and they'll come up fresh and ready for the next session. Avoid tumble drying on high heat to keep them in good shape for longer.
What size are the MP Hand Towels?
These are gym hand towels, so they're compact by design. They're sized for everyday gym use — ideal for wiping down equipment, keeping your face dry mid-workout, or tucking into your bag without bulk.
Which colour should I choose?
Both colourways are versatile and easy to pair with your existing kit. If you prefer something bold and clean, the Black version is a reliable go-to. If you want something a little more toned down, the Storm colourway delivers a softer, more neutral look — while still being made from the same soft-touch cotton with the same convenient, compact carry.
Who designed these gym towels?
MP Hand Towels are designed by Myprotein's in-house design team. Every detail — from the fabric choice to the sizing — is put together with real gym use in mind.
Are these towels suitable for all types of training?
Absolutely. Whether you're lifting, doing cardio, taking a fitness class, or working through a HIIT circuit, a compact hand towel earns its place. They're also handy for wiping down shared equipment between sets — good gym etiquette made easy.
How many gym towels should I own?
Most people find that having at least two makes life easier — one in the bag, one in the wash. It's a small thing that keeps your routine running smoothly without having to think about it.
Can I use these towels outside the gym?
There's nothing stopping you. These hand towels work just as well for yoga sessions, travel, outdoor training, or any activity where you want something compact and absorbent to hand. The soft-touch cotton is comfortable in any setting.
