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.

Essential for Arizona in the summer - especially for attending swim meets! Good quality compared to competitors' brands, no smell, easy to use and comfortable. Portable and easy to use for hiking and anything outside in hot weather.

The texture of these when wet is unlike any other towel I have used. It is almost rubbery and clammy, which is great in the heat compared to the other cloth-based cooling towels I have used. I keep it in my cooler when outdoors and it almost gets TOO cold.

I reluctantly bought these before a Disney trip bc the Boy Scout in me wanted to be prepared. I took them out and prepped them but didn’t expect to actually use them. I’m happy to report they saved the day. These are amazing and such an easy way to stay cool. Highly recommend!

Brought these for our family Disney trip and worked like a champ. We went to Disney late August and they were life savers! 10/10 recommend!

Can't believe how well they work. So convenient and a total must have in the summer. Great for kids too. Helps to keep my 6 month old cool when we are out doing things.

I purchased these for my son and his athletic kids who are always out in the sun and heat. I was able to cut each of these towels in half to make 4 cooling towels 6.5" wide x 33 inches long. I wet them and put them in individual zip lot bags which keeps them cool.

My wife and I have had Frogg Toggs products for years so we got these instead of another brand. It has been hot here for the last month, over 100 degrees just like every summer. Follow the instructions and wash them when you first get them. They work very well. Recharge with cold water as needed. Then rinse out to get the sweat off and hang them on a hanger, not in an air tight container like a zip lock as mold will form. They dry stiff on the hanger, but run under cold water and they come back to life within a few seconds.

I went to Washington DC July 8-13-2024. I realized it was an extremely hot time with the temperatures in the low to mid 90s. Comfort index was 105 on some days. I took it with me every day. The first day wasn’t bad. I did a six hour tour of Washington DC. it was a hop on hop off tour. when I would get back to the bus I always grabbed a bottled water and would wrap the wrap around it and that was very helpful. Keeping it cold. I did a 2 1/2 hour walking tour of Arlington national cemetery. It also was a very hot day. it didn’t help hardly at all. I would say within an hour to an hour and a half, it wasn’t working at all to help. I think it would be good at home when I’m outside gardening and tending to my flowers. But I wasn’t impressed with how it worked when I was up in Washington. I kept it in a refrigerator during the nights also

It bothers me a little that when dried the towel might broke. It’s not small and it’s wrinkled and I find it hard to store it somewhere safe. Other than that it’s amazing product!

I hike extensively in the wilderness, and I get a lot of bumps and bruises that are best treated with a cold pack. These Cooling Towels work great, and keep a minor injury from swelling. In addition, when it's really hot outside, these towels are nice and cool for your neck. When the towels are dry, they are very light, which is great for my backpack.

Kept me very cool which was necessary. They were really hard and stiff when dry though and it made it difficult to pack away when not in use.

This is so stiff when dry that storing it when not using it is like storing a piece of wood. I would never recommend something like this.
