After going on a 3 month backpacking trip, I'm so grateful that I had this little towel. I didn't have to worry about drying times and could just pack it. A few bad things about it: it sometimes can smell a little funky, but that's quickly cured by just running it through a washing machine; also, it can sometimes get some strange marks on it. Overall though, it's a great investment for the luggage space challenged.

I was on the swim team back in highschool and used this product everyday. Being pleased with it back in the day, I decided to get another one for my new venture. I am currently on a Rescue / Recovery team with a local dive team and again this product has been nothing less than perfect. Its more convienent and effective to have around that a huge, wet, bulkey towel.

My husband was very pleased with this gift to replace the chamois he has used for several years. It absorbs water quickly. It stays fresh when rinsed regularly.

It's the size of a washcloth, so they really shouldn't call it a "towel". Nonetheless it works well in drying me off. I was pleasantly surprised. Make sure to give it a good hand wash once a week to keep the smell it tends to build up at bay. Otherwise decent product. Sure beats having a big, bulky towel!

i was skeptical to believe that this worked as good as it was supposed to, but it does. it sometimes gets a funky smell, but nothing a rinse with clean water won't fix.
i'm an amateur swimmer who's really happy with it!!!

I bought this for my girlfriend who was always complaining about the weight of her backpack when she was going to swim. Now she says it's great because she can take a little purse and the towel fits there perfect.

The towel works great because u can re-use it several times in a row. Never forget to keep it wet after use it

If you've got a shower at the office or gym, it's nice and small but works extremely well.

The Speedo Sports towel is an artifical chamois designed to wick water and sweat away from your body while remaining a compact item that can fit in your swim bag or gym tote.

I use mine to wash off after working out; gyms these days have no showers (what's with that?!) but my office lav has a sink, so I wash off after working out before I hit my desk. I use this towel to dry off.

It fits into a plastic sleeve and it's supposed to stay moist, otherwise, like any chamois, it gets hard and has to be rehydrated. I assume, since it stays moist, it has an anti-fungal and antibacterial component in the fiber, which is cotton-based.

As has been said here, it can get a funky smell but it can be washed in the washing machine, which you'd want to do anyway, or swished out with soap in the sink. It also can get a funny color on the crease (mine is blue and a rusty spot showed up.)

The dimensions: 40cm x 30cm or 15 3/4" by 12".

After swimming is a excellent choice to reduce the size of the backpack and also low the weight in your back. Better than a Gomel and you don't need to wait until it dry.

I looove this Towel, it's excellent, it is really super absorbent. I like the size and the way it feels. I'be been using it for a while, like a month, twice a week and still it feels great. I like a lot the fact that you can take it to the pool and to the beach I would recommend it 100%.
