Snugpak Microfibre Antibacterial


Travel Towel The Microfibre Antibacterial Travel Towel is the perfect addition to any gym bag, and in addition to the existing olive and blue colours, an additional Blaze Orange colourway has just been added to the range - the towel is now available in two sizes, a large ‘head to toe' and a small ‘hands and face' which will cover every eventuality. The towels are extremely lightweight and can be packed to a fraction of the size of a traditional bath towel whilst providing superior absorbency, they are antibacterial treated and machine washable. The large towel also includes a dual compartment wet & dry stuff sack.


Splash About Happy Nappy Wetsuit The Happy Nappy Wetsuit is designed in consultation with swim schools to maintain a baby’s core body temperature in water. It’s the only wetsuit on the market to incorporate a swim nappy, one which is insisted upon by over 90% of UK swim- schools due to its effectiveness at preventing faecal leaks in the pool. British Standard’s approved guidelines now recommend that children under 3 wear a swim-school approved swim nappy to keep the water safe for all swimmers. The Happy Nappy Wetsuit is suitable from birth to 24months.
