Anyone have a towel that doesn't wash up nice and fresh?
I've got a swimming towel that frankly smeels terrible now, even right after the wash. It smells stagnant, Mrs Stud won't even give it to the Dog LOL.
I thought perhaps the machine isn't rinsing thoroughly but nothing else smells, clothes are fine and smell great. I'm forced to believe that it is something to do with the water at the YMCA...perhaps even after showering I am sweating chlorine or other things into the towel.
Does anyone else have this issue or any thoughts.

She won't mind if you're the one doing the laundry.
Really. It's not rocket science! :p
Between my daughter and me, I'm doing a load of swim towels at least twice a week. I like my clean and fluffy, thank you very much.
I said I wanted idiot bins in the laundry room separate bins for separate wash cycles...it will take 2 minutes to start a cycle. Mrs Stud wants to wait until the room is finished...
I just got word from my towel, it is going to enter itself into masters swimming...it says since it has already sprouted arm and legs, that it figures it can give Geek a run for his money!
Well, at least something that is a part of you could give me a real race.
Swim towels are single use for us. Inevitably they wind up touching the ground or the benches and Lord only knows what sorts of crud they pick up in that time.
That's a little extreme. Do you wrap yourself in saran every time you go outside, too?

Most people I swim with change towels every practice. No one I know wears saran wrap. Get an extreme case of athlete's foot, or worse, and maybe you'll change your mind on that.
I should add that I often dry my feet with said towel before putting my flops or shoes on. Using this towel again would be like rolling around on the locker room floor. No thanks.
Absolutely. Once it hits the floor or if I have to use it on my feet, it's toast. I usually avoid using it for my feet by using paper towels instead.
I could say something....
No I don't wrap myself up to go outside. Your comparison is completely absurd (but that is to be expected I suppose).
Do you know what hyperbole is? Or is it dirt that makes one smart?

I normally go to change right after the guy has bleached the floor..and boy do they bleach.
