Summary: Works great, easy to pack, easy to wash
Comment: I bought this for my husband for our scuba diving trip. Unlike other shammies, this towel is soft. The traditional shammies used by swimmers and divers are made of a somewhat stiff material (especially when the shammy is dried out) which require they be kept moist. When a typical shammy is totally dried out for too long, it cracks and disintegrates. This shammy, however, can be completely dried. It retains it's soft, fabric surface and still absorbs. My husband even threw this towel in the dryer accidentally, and it came out fine. Had he done that to a traditional shammy, it would have been ruined. The towel performed well on the dive boat and while I shivered in a terry towel, he was fine wiping the splashes off. I did not give the towel 5 stars for one reason: its a little small. Overall, I highly recommend this towel.

Summary: gets the job done
Comment: the size is just right to dry you off effectively, and the material really soaks up quickly. It's a nice shade of blue that wasn't like other people's towels at the gym, so I didn't feel like I was going to get it mixed up. Definitely was a good buy for the money! I took it with me into the sauna to sit on after swimming and it dried out pretty quickly, as well as catching water from my trunks. I was even able to take it out into the rest of the gym to wipe down weight machines after I used them. It's very versatile and if you only needed one towel for school or travel, this would be a good one.

Summary: Perfect for the gym
Comment: I bought this towel to use after my shower at the gym and I have been very happy with it. It is small in size, but that's what I wanted...something that would fit easily into my bag. If you are looking for a towel to "wrap up" in, this will not work for you. If you just need to dry off and would like to save space in your gym bag, this is perfect!

Summary: Does the job
Comment: This towel works great for what it is intended. It will definately dry you off after swimming or a shower and it's compact. You can't wrap it around you like a regular towel but if you're using it at the pool or gym for showering, usually the dressing room is right there, yes? Big enough to cover the naughty bits at least.

Summary: Good Gym Towel
Comment: This makes a really good gym towel, it's about the right size although not big enough for a shower towel.
Very absorbent, but it doesn't slide against your skin very readily, so you need to get used to kind of blotting the sweat rather than wiping it.
