To the touch, the Tek Towel resembles a classic cotton terry towel, but uses the properties of synthetic fibers. Made of recycled polyester and polyamide, it absorbs up to six times its weight and will be dry again in a short time. This makes it perfect for regular sports activities such as swimming, gym, indoor sports and more or for summer holidays in a tent. It has a terry finish with a long pile and is equipped with a hanging loop with the patent. It comes in a handy EVA foam zip case.

Similar to other reviewers, I found this "micro-fiber" towel to not dry fast, or even that slow. I think a regular towel dries faster so very surprised and disappointed that they advertise this as "dries fast" as it absolutely does not. The color also runs and will ruin your wash if you do not wash separately. I owned the prior micro-fiber towels sold by LL Bean and they actually dried quickly and were quality micro-fiber towels. This brand seems like an over-priced terry cloth towel to me.

I purchased the medium for use in my small camper. I just got back from my first trip and I was very pleased with it. I like that it is lightweight and takes up little space - I'll be able to use it for backpacking as well as camping. After a shower it did a fine job of drying me. I had wondered if the medium would be big enough - but it soaked up all the water on me just fine. And when I got back to the camper I liked the loop that I could use to hang it on something to dry. It's not a big fluffy bath sheet - but I don't have room for one of those! All in all I'm happy with my purchase and recommend it.

This towel is awesome! I use it under my water bottle drying racks. Perfect colour to match my KitchenAid Skye Aqua appliances.When we go camping I take it with me for dish drying. Does it's job well. Very absorbant.

This towel is great for camping, hiking, etc -- not sure about backpacking given the size/box-y ness of the container.It really came in handy during my camping trip to Yellowstone. It comes with a tab that makes it easy to hang up, which is efficient for drying the towel after its been washed or in general.I happened to catch some trout during my trip to Yellowstone, and was able to use one of the towels to support the cooking process. Afterwards I used my sea to summit sink to wash the towel, and hung it up to dry so that it could be used for other purposes.
These are great towels as other reviewers have shared. I bought the large and extra-large versions specifically for camping/backpacking and also for deployments. They work outstanding in both environments! I appreciate they feel much more like a regular towel over a major competitors brand that I've used for years that feels like a shammy you dry your car with. They both dry quickly and pack down small but you can't beat the next to skin feel of the Tek Towels. Pay attention to the sizing/recommendations. The XL is definitely a big towel if you need or like the abundance. I recommend the Large for most situations ie field showers, pool, and such.
After spending a couple of weeks in Ukraine with one towel, I’m glad I brought this one with me. If you got the space, buy the more bulky one as the lightest weight one is like drying off with a piece of suede. That being said, the bulky, softer towels by sea to summit didn’t disappoint. It dried quick and soaked up all the water I could shake at it.
We have been using these Tek Towels on three sprinter van trips so far. We find that the large and x-large sizes are best for bath towels. The wash towels are used as wash cloths. The Tek Towels have the thick feel of a real bath towel. They absorb very well, much better than micro fiber. They dry within hours so we can use them morning and again late afternoon without having damp towels. When we visit friends' houses, we prefer to use our Tek Towels and Tek wash towels over their bath towels. This has the added benefit of saving the hosts from having to do laundry. We like these so much we are buying two sets for fellow vanlife friends as host gifts.
We bought two of these towels for use on a week long volunteer adventure where we had limited space and no washer dryer available. We used them for the entire week and were so pleased with them we are planning to buy more to have on hand at camp this summer for guests to use. The towel is very absorbent when you use it and dries out quickly after use. We had them hanging inside and they dried quickly but I expect it would be even quicker if they were hung outside on a line for a brief time. No problem with odor buildup during the week of continuous use. I have washed them several times now and they are holding up very well. They pack back into their little travel cases very easily so do not take up much room in luggage if you travel with them.
We swim 5 to 6 days a week and this towel is much better than other tech towel brands which I have had. . It is very absorbent, I think because of the thick pile, packs small and light and very importantly dries very quickly. It washes well and is always dry and ready to go. I take it camping for the same reasons.
The extra large is a good size. The towel folds down into its case so it is reasonably small and easy to pack. It soaks up a lot of water and yet dries quickly. And it does not have that scratchy microfiber feel. Bought one for myself and one for my son for our high adventure trip to Alaska. We both enjoyed our towels and their packability.
