Dock & Bay
Dock & Bay
Born from a Travel Frustration
Dock & Bay was founded in 2015 in London by Andy Jefferies and Ben Muller. Both had the same problem when travelling: towels that were too big, too heavy and took forever to dry. The first prototype was made from curtain fabric and paper strips. The concept: a towel that dries fast, is lightweight and still looks great.
Material and Function
Since 2021, all Dock & Bay towels are made from 100% recycled post-consumer plastic. The microfibre material dries three times faster than cotton, is sand-resistant, odour-resistant and packs down small.
Investment from Dragons’ Den
In 2017, Jefferies and Muller presented Dock & Bay on the British TV show Dragons’ Den. Deborah Meaden invested £75,000. It was a validation: the product works, the market is there.
Colours, Patterns, Style
The range includes beach towels, quick-dry towels, swim shorts and travel accessories in a wide colour palette. The designs are clean and timeless, with patterns that suit the beach as much as the pool.
Dock & Bay x One Horizon
At One Horizon, we carry Dock & Bay because sustainable materials and honest product design go hand in hand. If you’re looking for a towel for beach, pool or travel that really holds up and packs away compactly, you’ll find it here.
