How big is it and how small does it pack?
It is 35 x 62 in unfolded — a full body-towel size — and rolls into the included mesh bag at roughly 8 x 3 x 4 in, about the footprint of a water bottle.
Does it really dry fast?
Yes. The microfiber holds about 5 times its weight in water but wrings out almost dry and air-dries in minutes, far quicker than a cotton towel. Snap it in the air after wringing to speed it up.
Will it start to smell between washes?
It is treated with SILVADUR silver-ion antimicrobial, which slows the odor-causing bacteria that make a damp towel funky. Still rinse it and let it dry when you can for best results.
Can I machine wash it, and any care tips?
Yes, machine wash it. Skip fabric softener — it coats microfiber and kills the absorbency. Tumble low or hang it from the mesh bag's loop to dry.
What can I use it for besides drying off?
It doubles as a gear wipe-down rag, a quick ground cover, or a tied-off sunshade or wind block — the sewn grommets give you tie points at the corners.
