Why We Like It

The PackTowl Personal towel is the best-selling, quick-drying microfiber towel on the market, and with good reason. It's ultra-versatile, absorbent, and superfast-drying performance makes it great for traveling.

I've found the Body size is the perfect balance of surface area and weight.
