I bought the extra-large to serve as a beach towel on a trip where I wanted to pack very light. It worked perfectly! Not as plush as a normal towel, certainly, but big enough to lay out on and very absorbent.

This towel replaced an older, uglier travel towel that I lost. It's completely worth the price! The color is wonderful, even after several washes. It's soft and though it has that sticks-to-your skin issue when you dry off (as many of these travel towels do) it was bearable. Plus, it truly is super absorbent and dries out quickly. A must for any backpacker.

There is no other addition to this towel that would improve its design or functionality. This little piece of microfiber cloth is light, absorbent, and quick-drying. I have never had a problem with this towel, and, on the contrary, it has come in handy nearly every camping trip I've taken.
Bottom line: this towel is useful for most camping situations -- whether on snow, on the trail, or in the water -- and it has never let me down. 10 out of 10!

I bought a similar towel when in Afghanistan and was shocked by how unfulfilled it left me. Yes, the cheaper army towel soaked up tons of water but it wouldn't easily ring out, resulting in an uncomfortable cold sensation akin to the feeling of wearing a cold wet cotton t-shirt around at a theme park before summer's truly kicked off lol. Chilling is not something I associate with a towel. This towel however is equally thin and lightweight, but exceeded expectations: super absorbent (shockingly so), surprisingly soft, has the attached hanging loop, it's possible to ring it out and keep using to some degree, and it dries fast. To further drive home my point, the Sea To Summit's small sized towel is a fourth the size of my similar army towel and yet the Sea To Summit does a better job drying me off. Ignoring body coverage, the small is 100% adequate with drying you after a full shower. That said I did get my wife a large because she likes the sensation of being wrapped when toweling off. One last thing worth noting- these towels build stink at about twice the rate of your traditional hotel-type towel. I assume it's because these towels have so much less cloth and therefore your body funk gets all concentrated. Bottom line: very glad I purchased this towel.

I purchased one of these for my backpacking trip to Australia and it worked great. You can completely soak the towel and hang it to dry and it will dry completely so quickly. Folds up nice and small so it's great for traveling when you don't have much room in your suitcase. Lost mine at a hotel so I purchased another one for future travels.
