RainLeaf Ra In Leaf Microfiber Towel, 30 X 60 Inches, X-Large (76 X 150 cm) Gray

They do dry out fairly quick which is nice but they're smaller than I would like. The length is good but if they were a foot wider they'd be perfect.

These are not soft and plush like terry towels. They do not absorb the same way as terry towels. It's more like you wipe your body with it and think you aren't drying, and then you are suddenly quite dry. It's different but effective. (I am a small woman. I cannot speak to how this works for a large person with a lot of body hair.) I bought these to take to the gym for my post-swim shower. I'm 5'3", and the 30x60 works as a body towel -- it falls to within an inch or two of my knees. I love how much less space it takes up in my very full swim bag. I was so pleased with this as a body towel that I bought a smaller one (24x48) for my long hair, and it works great as a hair towel. I haven't noticed any damage since I started using it. I've been so pleased with these that I bought more for the beach because they pack down so small. Since I used these on a beach chair, I can't speak to how well they repel sand, but because they don't have loops like a terry towel and the nap is minimal, I suspect they collect less sand. Traditional beach towels are more snuggly, but I liked having less bulk to cart across the sand. Also, my skin in sensitive to bleach, so these have been really handy in hotel rooms -- I use one of these instead of the bleached towels. The bag that the towel comes in is handy if, like me, you don't like thinking about dirty things rubbing against your towel. The towel has a loop that allows it to hang securely, so you're less likely to have your towel fall on floor of the public shower. That said, the 30x60 is so long that it might drag on the floor. You can hang the towel kinda folder, or loop an end back through the loop. (You can also hang the towel inside its carrying bag.) That loop was useful during travel when going from the hotel where I just used the towel to the car with ten hours of driving to go. I can hang the towel by the loop on my car's backseat hook (by a backseat window) and feel that the towel is drying better than it would stuffed in a bag. Overall, great product, great for travel.

I've been looking for a more compact and packable bath-sized towel when I'm at the gym (my gym no longer issues towels out for members - I have a love/hate relationship with my gym). I figured I'd take a chance on the Rainleaf Microfiber towel. I don't know why I kept thinking it would be similar in texture to those microfiber shop towels that one would use for waxing a car, etc. Not so for the Rainleaf, this is a different kind of microfiber that's more... velvety? I'm not sure how to describe it, but it's a smooth and soft texture that's still absorbent. It also dries pretty quick as long as you take it out of the gym bag when possible. So if you like packing lightly and a towel is needed for your situation, this is the way to go!

This thing works shockingly well! We bought it to use when we give our dog a bath. The first time we dried him with it he looked the way he normally looks after we've spent 5 or 10 minutes blow drying him! We're going to buy another one to use for ourselves. I bought the 30x60 and it is giant -- feels much bigger than I expected.

I’ve never used a towel on myself that seemed better suited for a car. All joking aside, this product is good for traveling for a few reasons 1) it’s compact, 2) it’s lightweight, and 3) it dries fast. Using this towel is not like a normal towel experience - it is not as soft and it doesn’t easily glide on your skin. However, if you need something compact, lightweight, and fast-drying, this hits all of those marks and dries your entire body exceptionally well. I got the XL size and it mirrored the size of a bath towel perfectly. I did not feel like it was lacking in size. It was just like using a towel with regard to size. I did a test run at home and had a great experience, so I will be taking it on a road trip next week. I washed it before use & it washes nicely and also fits back into the carrying pouch relatively easily.
