This towel is comfortable, HUGE (trying to keep it off the ground sometimes is a challenge), and did I mention COMFORTABLE?

The terry / microfibre choice for 2 sides is genius, and the size can't be beat.

Comparing this to my Hydrophase shorts which I was more excited for, I had no clue how much I was going to love this towel when I added it to my cart to pad my purchase up for the free shipping.

Good towels cost good money, but this towel is a surprisingly good value for it's size and quality.

Get it. You won't regret it.

Towel is great, there is significantly more space on it than on a regularly shaped one. But there are also drawbacks due to shape. It is significantly harder to use it as a 'privacy guard' when changing into dry clothes on a beach, also carrying it around the neckis less comfortable. Due to sheer size, it isbulky, but that are laws of physics and I generally enjoy the size ... which got me thinking ... if you made it just a bit bigger, and add a hole and hood in the middle circle, you would get a ponchotowel that is useful as a beach robe for changing clothes, can be carried hands-free and due to hood still covers the ground where the hole is ... ? All that said, one towel can be a resting place for a family of three on a rocky beach ... amazing!
