In-use Test:

This towel is thin and two sided with one 'smooth' side and a 'fleecy' side. You use the softer fleecy side next to your skin and this sucks up the moisture, transferring it the other smooth side where it evaporates away. And it really works drying you with almost miraculous speed.

It then dries quickly so you can stow it away.

It comes with a neat mesh carrying bag so the dash to the campsite shower 'facility' is just that little bit easier. This also makes it easy to locate as you rummage at the bottom of your backpack.

And after repeated laundering the look, feel and overall performance remain as good a when new.

Clare in the go4awalk.com office discovered another use for it. During her Duke of Edinburgh gold award 'wild-camp', she used it as a pillow. (Apparently she had no use for a towel as she didn’t wash!!)

Buying Advice:

This really does work as the label says. A really useful product to have with you when space is at a premium or when you’re moving around and need your towel to dry quickly so you can pack it.
