THE HARDEST WORKING TOWEL IN THE INDUSTRY

A good solid towel is one of those items we all take for granted. It seems so basic, so ordinary, that anything should work. Right? 

Wrong.

The right pre and post-dive support items are critical pieces of dive kit that can mean the difference between enjoying your dive or just suffering through it.

Made from finely woven synthetic microfiber, the Tek is superior to traditional towels in nearly every way and is an essential item in any diver’s bag.

The Tek is not just any towel, but the result of 20 years of search and rescue dive experience, and 20 years of being let down by gear that just doesn’t measure up to the demands of difficult diving and challenging dive conditions.

After constantly replacing regular towels, dealing with towels that took way too long to dry, and carting bulky towels to remote dive sites only to have them fly off or stink of mildew, it was time to ditch the ‘standard’ towel and make something that worked as hard as veteran divers do.

  • Folds up to the size of a small novel and weighs less than 1lb. Meaning more room in your dive bag for critical gear and no carting bulky towels to remote dive sites.
  • Finely woven microfiber traps moisture, not absorbs it, so dry times are measured in minutes and the dramatically increased surface area of the fibers means the Tek can hold seven times its weight in water.
  • 100% synthetic fibers makes the Tek naturally antimicrobial and mildew resistant, so no more dank smell when you’re trying to wipe your face after a dive.
  • Soft waffle-weave texture has a natural wicking ability meaning one-wipe drying of surfaces and no more ‘slug trail’ of water that escaped.
    • Convenient hang loop and integrated name tag puts an end to towels flying away in the wind - 
  • - or being appropriated by your "buddy.". Simply secure the loop to a handrail or object and the towel can dry without flying away.

FULL SIZE at 63" x 31.5" the Tek can be used as a changing drape, gear mat, decon towel, gear wrap, as an actual towel to dry yourself with... Trust us, it's durable and ready to work.

A good dive bag will hit you $100+ and reliable undergarments north of $500. Let's face it, dive kit is specific and made to support one thing: diving. 

Keeping yourself and your gear ready for repeat dives is not a job for the bathroom special. 

Not all towels are created equal! This one rises above the others. It’s big enough to cover up and change on the fly when you’re called to a scene and tough enough to hold up to the demands of Public Safety Diving. It packs away small and has a handy button tab that keeps the towel wherever you hang it. The best part about the towel is it does what you want from a towel and dries you off. The towel itself dries quickly for a quick return to work. You can’t go wrong in adding the BMD Tek Towel to your dive kit.”

Absolutely the Best Towel I’ve Ever Used for Diving!

I honestly didn’t think a towel could make much of a difference—until I used the Tek Towel. This thing is on a completely different level from any standard towel I’ve owned, and it’s now a permanent part of my dive kit.

First off, the absorbency is incredible. The finely woven microfiber dries you off fast—no dragging around a heavy, soaked towel—and the fact that it dries itself in minutes is a game changer, especially on long dive days or when you’re moving between sites. No mildew smell, no damp towel sitting in your bag all day.

The size and versatility really stand out. At full size, it’s big enough to use as a changing drape, gear mat, or wrap, yet it folds down small enough to save valuable space in your dive bag. Lightweight, compact, and tough—exactly what you want when every piece of gear has to earn its place.

I also appreciate the thoughtful design details. The hang loop and integrated name tag might seem minor, but they make a huge difference in real-world conditions—especially in windy environments or busy dive operations where towels tend to disappear. This one stays put and stays yours.

What really sold me is knowing this towel was designed by divers with real-world search and rescue experience. You can tell it wasn’t built for casual use—it’s built to work hard, over and over again, in challenging conditions. From quick drying to antimicrobial performance, it does exactly what it’s supposed to do without fuss.

Bottom line: if you’re serious about diving and tired of bulky, slow-drying towels that don’t hold up, the Tek Towel is absolutely worth it. It’s one of those rare pieces of gear that seems simple but ends up being indispensable.

Highly recommended.

You wouldn't think finding a good towel would be difficult, but for someone who spends nearly every day in the water, I will tell you it really is. The BMD Tek Towel is durable, larger enough to dry off with, doesn't keep that mildew smell, and best of all it looks awesome. Highly recommend for any watermen looking for their new go to towel.

BMD never disappoints, never lets you down and always impresses. If you’re questioning it, don’t. Just buy it and find out for yourself how worth it was. Not a bad item sold! GDDS, DSDO, FAFO, BMD for life!
