Hello there, happy new owner of an IVAN product! Here are the best tips and instructions to take good care of your new favorite product:

Congratulations on a vanderful purchase!

Let's keep you dry and neat with just the right size travel towel

Say goodbye to traditional kitchen towels that turn slimy, dry poorly, and start smelling fast—with the Off the Road mini towel, your journey stays dry and stylish.

Perfectly sized at 40 x 40 cm for compact kitchens, bathrooms, or backpack side pockets, this towel won’t dangle in the sink, get stuck in drawers or doors, or take up unnecessary space.

The linen-cotton blend is highly absorbent, durable, easy to clean, and fully recyclable. It dries quickly and stays fresh even with frequent use.

With hanging loops on all four corners, drying is quick and effortless—whether on a hook, tree branch, clothesline, or backpack. The loops also let you adjust the towel’s size down to half or even a quarter for added versatility.

Ideal for campervan or RV kitchens and bathrooms, as a face, hand, or travel towel. Also highly recommended for home, cabin, and boating use!

Designed in Turku, knitted in Jokipii, and sewn in Tampere, Finland.

How to love me right

  • Wash at 60°C with a gentle spin cycle in a half-full machine.
  • Remove stains while fresh and use natural soaps if needed. Avoid bleach and long spin cycles to preserve colors and fabric structure.
  • Soak the towel thoroughly before washing to prevent the machine's dosing water from absorbing into the textile, keeping the towel smoother during the wash.
  • Wash dark and light colors separately, and clean the lint filter regularly.
  • Hang to dry and smooth out by hand. You can also mangle or iron while damp.
  • A new, unwashed towel won’t absorb moisture yet—its full absorbency activates after the first wash.

Take good care & enjoy for years to come!
