Does your Health/Fitness Club have a sign like this in the locker room? And a similar sign in the parking lot saying essentially the same thing? You shouldn't leave your your new 4G iPhone or wallet in your car or the club's locker, so what do you do?
Bring them on the gym floor safe and snug in the waterproof pocket of the new TowelMateâ„¢
Watch the video below to see why you might want one for yourself and possibly recommend them to your club.

I personally dont like this idea at all. That is why the gyms have small locks where you keep your valuable in.
I dont want my towel to be heavy and want something soft on my face and not a towel that is full of hard stuff in it.
It looks as if the part where the stuff is stored is kept to one side, so you have plenty of soft towel for your face. Not sure I’d use it on the equipment – clubs should provide towels and spray or wipes for that – if not, I wouldn’t be a member. It’s pretty much standard these days (I would think – correct me if your club doesn’t provide this – maybe I live in a fantasy world!).
My problem with this is forgetting my stuff in the towel and throwing it in the wash, or forgetting the towel at the club & leaving my phone/iPod/$. (Although I guess if you have car keys in there you won’t forget it cuz you ain’t getting home). Also, I guess no matter where you put that stuff you have to remember where you put it, but me, I’d need a reminder. Can they put a buzzer on it somewhere that will beep at me if I leave it behind??!! 😉
What caught your eye first John? Taylor the TowelMate?
@Moot: If you’ve ever come back to an empty gym locker, you’ll be loving this idea and fairly unlikely to bury your face too firmly into your wallet etc… imo.
Shayne – In the words of that famous philosopher Red Green, “I’m a man, I can change, I guess” 🙂
Actually, Taylor was a pleasant surprise. She wasn’t there the previous day when I met with the inventor of the TowelMate Jon Margalit. When I returned to interview Jon the first thing I said was, “I want to interview… her!” and Jon said “I want you to interview her too!”
I would need a reminder too if not everything that is in would be in the wascher !
I think that is not a good idea to carry to much stuff, you are at the gym to train or workout what ever is your goals that is all you do not need anything except to focus on what you do to have succed in your goals and save your time …
This seems like a poor excuse of an invention. Seems like someone trying to get rick quick because they don’t have any other skills.
Yeah, When I go to the gym the last thing I have with me is a phone. I hate when I see people working out on the phone.
Good luck to the inventor… Bahahahaha!
This purse towel is a complete waste of money. I can’t imagine anyone wasting their money on this. I certainly do not want to be the guy with the towel that says “gym” and “skin” on it. Why not just go ahead and put retard on it as well.
