Pros & Cons
Pros
The important thing is it's a serviceable towel that travels well. It's indispensable, and i need about 5 of these babies! The brazilian colors are an added plus as this is the towel i'll be using on my annual trips to brazil.
I love how absorbent this towel is. It is so lightweight and absorbable at the same time. Great absorbency. Absorb nicely, wring out well.
Air dry quickly and never smell moldy. Never smelled of mildew.
Cons
The 'personal' is so flat-surfaced that it doesn't glide across body parts as one is drying them at all. Do not buy these towels.
Highlights
Quality
I highly recommend this for anyone who travels hikes backpacks or just wants a quality towel when taking the kids swimming
Im impressed with the towels ability to take serious abuse and hold up

However what youd find with the nano is that its so thin that its essentially a very large eyeglass cleaning cloth
Packaging/appearance
My daughter uses it at home to dry her long thick hair because the pack towel absorbs water better than regular bath towels
Competitiveness

The whole reason i got the print pattern was i thought it would disguise the dirt better

Fair warning about the green version though the green is brighter than it looks in the picture and doesn’t look good inperson there’s a reason that the green is cheaper than the other colors
