Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Many hotels provide just one towel for your entire stay. Don 't even ask about overnight trains. These ultra-soft, super-absorbant microfiber towels stand up to vigorous hand wringing, washing machines and dryers. Dry your body, wrap your hair, wick moisture from freshly hand-washed items, or make a mini picnic blanket with these versatile towels. And since they tuck into their own 6 x 9 or 7 x 10 wet-dry carrying pouch, and weigh only ounces, there 's no reason not to carry one with you everywhere.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good travel towel
I bought this towel for my backpacking trip to Europe. It takes a while to get used to the material, but it does the job and folds up nice and small. It is nice to have because you can easily throw it in a bag, just in case you need an extra towel. The towel wicks water well and comes in a convenient travel bag that can also hold a wash cloth, travel shampoo and conditioner, etc.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - travel towel
This towel is really nice, but I would not order from this company again. After ordering, I didn't hear from them for weeks. When I called customer service, they told me they didn't carry the item anymore. Then the service representative said she would call me back in an hour, and see if there was a comparable product they could replace it with. After not hearing from her for two hours, I called her back, and she said she had no recollection of our conversation!! But miraculously, she was now ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - compact, convenient, does its job!
I took this towel backpacking for 3 months and it was great. It's very compact, but folds out into a sufficiently large towel for my 5'8" frame. I especially liked the mesh bag it comes with because it could hold most (I would have preferred the bag to be slightly larger) my shower essentials neatly, so I could just grab the bag and run to the showers, without worrying that I've forgotten something. My travel-mate was quite jealous of my bag actually, so I gave it to her before returning home.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great product!
This towel was great, especially since it was so small and allowed me to pack even more stuff for my vacation. I had never tried a Rick Steves product before I bought this, the money belt, and the toiletries case for my last trip. I loved all three and have begun recommending Rick Steves products to everyone. This is a well-made product, and I loved the fact that it came in a little case that made it even better for travelling.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This Towel Surpasses All Towels
I went backpacking through Europe and the towel lasted for 18 days before going sour. I thought about washing it, but I was good to go. The texture is similiar to that of a chamois cloth, so patting yourself dry is the best bet. It drys within about an hour to two, dependent upon how much water is absorbed. I generally took showers at night and hung it out to dry, but for those morning showers and days I was on the move, the loop at the corner of the towel is excellent to latch on to the pack and ...
