My husband and I love these microfiber towels. They're always our go to for the beach or when we take a quick weekend trip. They're super absorbent and dry incredibly fast. Soft and comfortable to the touch. But the best part is how small and compact they fold down. So easy and lightweight to throw in your bag. We come back and buy again and again every time we need a few more to add to our collection. We have a few different colors and sizes and love the set options available. Read more

I bought these towels for my teenage son for after cross country practices at school. The large size is perfect for him (he’s 6’ tall), they are absorbent and light weight and easy to roll up and throw into his backpack for the remainder of the school day. My only complaint is that the description is a bit misleading, it states it is a set of 2 towels-while it is true that there are 2 towels, only one is shower appropriate size, the second towel is a hand towel size. I don't think that was made clear in the description but maybe I missed it. Other than that we are very happy with these towels Read more
Update 10/10/22: Been using this towel exclusively as a bath towel and am buying one for my daughter. Haven't had a single issue with it. Still absorbs quickly, dries me off enough to start air drying, and dries itself out in plenty of time for the next shower. The color has stayed the same and so has the feel. I own three now and they're all in the same condition. Update 1/10/21: I like reviews where people have used the product for awhile. Reviews based on one day of use don't help in deciding longevity, so they're not as useful. So, after having used this towel for about a year and a half, I can tell you it holds up. It still looks like new, too. I've used it at water parks, at a lake, and have been using it as a bath towel for quite some time. Still absorbs water just like when I first got it. In fact, I bought a second one just last month. Original Review: I originally bought this towel for drying off after swimming at a nearby lake. It worked well, and now I'm using it as a bath towel. I bought the XXL, and if I wrap it around myself, it goes around me completely and overlaps about a foot or more. If I tuck it under my arms while wrapped around, it drops to just below my knees. I'm 5'6" so hopefully that gives you some indication of real world size. Even though I used this to dry off lake water that is not pristine and clear, it held up well. After using it for a few months as a bath towel, it is still soft and absorbent. You don't wipe dry with this kind of towel, though. You blot yourself with minimal wiping, if any at all. After I dry off, I hang this up, and it's dry again a few hours later. I haven't timed it, but it's easily dry the next morning, at the very least. So this is a good daily towel to use. The little black hook isn't something I need, but it's a nice touch if I ever have to hang it by the loop sometime. I've also easily been able to put it back in it's carrying case when it's folded right. It doesn't take up much room and is very lightweight. Planning on getting another one in a little while.

I wish I had done more research first. They're made of polyester and I didn't initially think this was bad. But after just a modicum of research on the internet about polyester and how harmful it is, I don't really want to use it. A good old fashioned fluffy cotton towel works just fine and, while it may not dry as fast as a super thin layer of polyester, it doesn't need to for most applications. There's no need to reinvent the wheel... and then replace it with harmful, synthetic materials that poison our bodies and pollute the environment. That being said, if you're interested in how polyester can have several negative effects on the environment and human health, read the following: Microplastic pollution Polyester can create microplastics that can't be filtered by sewage and water refineries, and can eventually end up in waterways. Water consumption and production Polyester production is very water-intensive, and the wastewater can contain harmful chemicals that can pollute waterways and harm factory workers. Petroleum problems Polyester is made from petroleum and fossil fuels, and demand for polyester contributes to the extraction and refining of millions of barrels of oil each year. Skin problems Polyester is not breathable or hypoallergenic, and can cause skin problems like acne, dermatitis, itching, and redness. It can also increase the risk of rashes and irritation for people with sensitive skin. When exposed to heat, polyester releases antimony oxide, a known carcinogen that can be partially dissolved by sweat and absorbed by the skin. Antimony exposure can cause issues with the heart, lungs, and stomach, and can also irritate the eyes. Labs have detected antimony residues in 80–85% of polyester fibers. Polyester can also contain benzothiazole and benzotriazole. These chemicals can be absorbed by the skin and cause irritation. And some polyesters contain brominated flame retardants (BFRs). These chemicals are used to prevent fabrics from burning, but can be leached into sweat by the oil in the sweat. BFRs are linked to health issues such as thyroid disease, hormonal disruption, and neurological problems. Smell Polyester is also a good breeding ground for bacteria, which can cause sweat to smell. This is because polyester can absorb skin cells and oils, which can attract bacteria that cause odors. Polyester is also not biodegradable, and can take 20–200 years to decompose. Like I said, I didn't know all this until after I purchased and used so I won't be able to return it. But that doesn't mean I have to keep using it. Don't make my mistake. We live in a toxic world and it's highly advisable to do research on everything you eat, put into and onto your body. Good luck Read more
