Was hoping that I’d get to use these more to dry off after swimming because I love a big snuggle towel to warm up but the material doesn’t sap up water as much as I expected. These are definitely more for laying on the ground to not get yourself or other things sandy or dirty. Still one of my favorite looking towels all things considered. Colors are vibrant and the shape is fun.

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!
