Roo-Towel 1.0 vs 2.0: Which Shoe-Pouch Golf Towel Do You Need?

Most golf towels are only a wipe. Roo-Towel is built around a different job: a kangaroo pouch that carries your golf shoes with the towel that already lives on your bag — so shoes ride with the bag instead of getting left at home or dumped on the car floor.

Both 1.0 and 2.0 share that pouch, the S-carabiner, and the bottom loop. The difference is one feature: the wet sponge pocket.

What’s the same on both

  • Kangaroo shoe pouch — shoes go in toe-first, side by side (loose fit, no divider)
  • S-carabiner — clips to the bag
  • Bottom shoe loop — lift to the carabiner to close the pouch around the shoes
  • Waffle-weave microfiber — clubs, balls, grips
  • Emergency rain cover — drape over the club tops when a shower rolls in
  • About ~$29.99 each — 1.0 is the simpler towel, not a “discount” version

How to load the shoes (same method for both): setup video and steps.

What’s different

Roo-Towel 1.0 Roo-Towel 2.0
Shoe pouch + clip + loop Yes Yes
Wet sponge pocket (4" × 4") No Yes — sponge included
Best colors for dirt Gray (White shows dirt) Black, Blue, or Red
Who it’s for Gift, second towel, or “I don’t need a damp sponge” Everyday bag towel with on-course wet cleaning

1.0 does not accept the 2.0 sponge pack — there is no wet pouch to put it in. If you want damp cleaning on the bag, get 2.0.

When to choose Roo-Towel 1.0

Pick Roo-Towel 1.0 if you want:

  • The shoe pouch without a wet pocket
  • A straightforward gift in White or Gray
  • A second towel for a locker, trunk, or another bag (and you already own a 2.0)
  • A simpler setup — wipe dry, carry shoes, done

When to choose Roo-Towel 2.0

Pick Roo-Towel 2.0 if you want:

  • Everything 1.0 does plus a place to keep a damp sponge for clubs and balls
  • Darker colors that hide a dirty round better (Black, Blue, Red)
  • One towel that stays on the bag for the round and walks shoes to the car

Replacement sponges (3-pack) are a separate add-on for 2.0 only: shop sponges.

Quick decision

  • Just the pouch + a clean gift look?1.0
  • Not sure? → Start with 2.0. It’s the full bag towel. Add 1.0 later as a spare or gift.
