Description

    CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • This application claims priority to copending U.S. Application Ser. No. 63/087,094 filed on Oct. 2, 2020, which is hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes.
  • BACKGROUND
  • A variety of commemorative items for sporting events exist that do not provide a long-lasting practical use. For example, many items either take up valuable space, such as posters or cards, or do not last very long due to being made of inexpensive materials, such as plastic key chains and other tchotchkes. A unique, yet useful item that lasts a long time is desirable to prolong an individual's memories of the event, as well as creating a desire to return to the event, if it is a recurring event. For example, a commemorative sports towel distributed at a sporting event, such as an annual tournament, may provide an individual a daily reminder of the event as well as an object useful in everyday activities.
  • SUMMARY
  • The present disclosure is directed to methods systems, apparatus, and/or devices for a commemorative sports towel. The method, system, apparatus, and/or device may include: a first fabric configured in a shape of sporting equipment; a second fabric configured in the shape of the sporting equipment, wherein the first and the second fabric are coupled to create two sides of the sporting equipment; exfoliating material coupled to the first and second fabric, wherein the exfoliating material is configured to accent the shape of the sporting equipment; a pouch contained between the first and second fabric, wherein the pouch is configured to receive a cleansing material; one or more loops coupled to an exterior of the first and second fabric; and wherein the fabric comprises an area configured to receive letters, numbers, or images commemorating a sporting event.
