A two-sided towel for wiping moisture from two different surfaces while preventing cross contamination of the moisture between the surfaces. Coextensive first and second sheets, each having a moisture absorbent side and a moisture impervious side are fastened together with the moisture impervious sides abutting. The edges of the resulting sandwich are fastened together while leaving at least a portion of one edge unfastened, forming a pocket between the sheets into which a hand can be inserted. Typically, the towel is used by a fitness center patron to wipe perspiration from his or her body with one side and wipe moisture and dirt from equipment with the other side. The towel can also have fasteners to releasably close the opening so that it can be used as a bag, or be turned inside out and closed to carry damp clothing inside.
