Microfibre Towel, Quick Drying - EXTRA LARGE for Gym, Fitness, Swimming, Sports, Travel, Camping, Hiking, Beach, Yoga, Pilates, Bath, Shower | Super Absorbent, Compact, Lightweight | Extra Large | 180 x 90 cm | by Big Jim (X-Large)

The Big Jim Extra Large Microfibre Towel is an excellent option if you want a towel that’s genuinely big, lightweight, and fast drying. At 180 x 90 cm, it offers full coverage and actually feels like a proper towel rather than the undersized microfibre ones you often get. Despite the size, it folds down very compact and takes up hardly any space in a gym bag or backpack, which makes it ideal for travel, camping, or swimming. Absorption is impressive - it dries you quickly after workouts, swims, or showers, and doesn’t feel soaked or heavy afterwards. The quick-drying performance is a big win too; it dries far faster than a standard cotton towel, so you don’t end up with a damp towel sitting in your bag. The material feels good quality, soft enough for regular use, and it’s easy to wash and reuse without losing effectiveness. It works just as well for the gym and pool as it does for beach trips, yoga, or camping. Best for: • Gym, swimming, and fitness • Travel, camping, and hiking • Anyone wanting a large but lightweight towel Big, absorbent, quick drying, and easy to carry. A genuinely useful microfibre towel that does exactly what it promises - an easy 5⭐️.

BEst microfibre to date and have been adventuring for several years. XL size is perfect and still folds up small. It's got a thickness to it that you don't get from camping store brands, which seem like they can be used once and then are wet, it also has a grip and quality to the fabric where other brands are silky and just seem to slide around ur skin. This quick dries better, is lighter, folds better, absorbs better and has lasted me a long long time, almost 2 years. The XL folds out so big I can even use it to dry my tent if it rains, fold it over a few times and use it for a few more days on my face etc. Just keep folding. Very impressed. This makes a good ordinary towel if indoors too, unlike other brands which just seem like a silky thin back up towel.

I bought this towel to use after showering at the local gym, but now I use it every day. The towel folds up quite small so fits in your sports bag easily. It's quite large too which surprised me at first when I opened it out! Don't expect to be wearing this as a skirt when tying around your waist, it's more like a dress! The towel works best by patting and wiping rather than rubbing at 100mph like blokes would do. This towel is meant to suck the water off you so works best that way. If you have stubble then definitely do not wipe as you will leave small bits of blue fluff behind. I do struggle drying my back a bit with this towel, sometimes I feel like Dracula in the changing room, hunched over wearing the towel like a cape. In my experience (a few weeks usage) the towel does dry quick. If I leave the towel out to dry after showering in the house it will be done in a few hours, whereas a regular towel might need a full day. The towel is definitely not dry when I'm packing away in my bag after showering at the gym but I did notice that the rest of my bag doesn't get wet when using a regular towel, so this is a plus for me. The only drawback I found with this towel is drying hair. I tried everything from wiping, patting to old school bloke mode by rubbing furiously but it doesn't dry my hair as well as a regular towel. Not a big deal, but it does lose a star for this.

I rather like microfibre towels - ideal for the gym or swimming, taking up much less space (and weight) in my bag, drying me effectively, and being easy to dry when I get home just by hanging them up for a couple of hours, so I can get a couple of uses out of them between washes rather than coming home with a sodden towel that needs washing right away and takes up half the washing machine. I also find them useful when I go camping - again, less packing space taken up and they'll dry out quickly just by being hung from the frame of the gazebo we tend to take along. These are excellent quality towels - my first is over a year old and still looks as good as it did when new and still dries effectively. I bought another so that I have a spare available when the first is in the wash. I'm 6'5", and, shall we say, "horizontally gifted" - there's a reason I go to the gym. Some towels are a bit small, but this size is indeed extra large - plenty large enough for me. Definitely happy to recommend these.

Very good Abstract towel

Giant, light weight and absorbent

This is a practical & quick dry item ……… Washing made easy …Travel-ability drops into a pocket of a coat or small plastic bag - or Sports bag easy peasy. Absorbent and I have rolled it up to the size of a small Loaf of bread. I bought a lilac coloured one . It’s easy to spot in the many pocketed gym bag I have . And it’s really amazing at just about indestructible … I have had one akin to this many years ago but this item is so superior in all the ways I have mentioned . Big Jim by name by far the best towel I have had the pleasure of owning….

Takes a bit of getting used to. But works well, drys quickly and folds very small for bag.
