Great for camping -- previous flaws fixed with new design.
I did not want to write a review until I had a chance to try these towels. Now that I have, I can say that I really like them. While they don't have the same feel as the usual bath towels, they are effective at drying one off. Plus, they do dry quickly so that they don't sit around damp all day.I got these for our travel trailer as standard towels take up too much room. I expect to get many years of use from them. Plus, they store in much less space than the standard bath towels. It is a win-win decision to purchase these.Edit: (See edit below for 10/22/2018 edit. I am leaving this for reference as it no longer applies to the new design) After using one set after washing per instructions, they were washed and dried in accordance with instructions. When I pulled them out of the dryer, I noticed that the serged seams at one corner in each of the large and small towels has begun to fray. I have downgraded by rating by two stars as I would not expect this fraying to happen after only two washes. I will check the others and reinforce the corners before washing them again to keep this from happening to them also. The towels themselves are performing as I expected. I'm happy with them overall, but not with the way they were finished.Edit: I was contacted by the seller and will receive a replacement for the towels that frayed. I appreciate ZD's willingness to stand behind their product and to replace the defective set. With that support, I added another star to my rating.Edit: There is a product called Fray-Check. Putting a drop of this product on each corner locks the threads. I put a drop on each corner of the other towels I ordered and on the replacements I received. This should lock the threads and prevent the fraying I noted.Edit 10/22/2018: I was contacted again by Relefree and was sent a towel of a new design with a rounded corner. This design now is serged continually all the way around and does not have the corners that fray. It is visibly much improved. In addition, it looks like the bag has also been improved and should hold up much better as well. I have not had the opportunity to use the new design towel as it just arrived today. However, I expect that it will perform well and last long. I will commend Relefree on their willingness to listen to their customers and fix the flaws in their products. The changes are evident when the pictures of the two are compared. This has earned the full five stars for this product. I can unreservedly recommend this redesigned towel.

Perfect Towels for Camping Trips - Thin, Lightweight, Dries Quickly
The Relefree Microfiber Sports Towel set was the perfect set of towels for our family to take when camping the past week. These towels are much much thinner than bath towels, get you dry quickly, and air dries fast so you’re not using a wet towel the next day you take a shower. Unlike the set that I purchased for the kids (different brand), these towels were much larger and better suited for an adult to use. The set came with two towels each - one large body towel and a smaller hand towel. The large towel was aboutthe same size as most standard sized bath towels and worked effectively get getting my body and hair dry. The hand towel was a bit large to use a face washing towel, but it was a good size for drying off my toiletry bottles, soap holder, water bottles, and hands when needed.The towels, although they look very thin, dry off bodies very well. It does take some getting use to in terms of touch - these feel a bit slick when you’re drying off, but they definitely get you dry. The towels themselves also dry out very quickly, so no one had to dry off with a wet towel during our week long camping trip. These towels washed well in my HE washing machines and dried quickly in the dryer. I didn’t see any type of fraying or pilling after use. Overall, these are really great towels to use when you’re lacking space and want to keep thing light in your bags. They get you dry quickly, air dry quickly for the next use, don’t retain any weird smells, and they wash well. I would definitely get these again once these towels wear out.

Shines so good!
I ordered this product not to use for what it says like yoga and a towel but I ordered it for my cleaning company. I use a bunch of different microfiber towels and none of them shine stainless appliances like this one does! I totally recommend this if you like to clean with them and not just for a towel! I am including before and after pictures to show!

Perfect for Costa RIcan Trekking
I wasn't sure what to expect with these towels. I have microfiber that feels like a soft rubbery shammy and some that are very scratchy. I needed to have towels easy to pack for adventure trekking in Costa Rica where hotel towels won't work. I was so surprised with the softness of these towels. Best I can explain is to say they feel like the soft shammy type cloths spas use to wipe facial products off my face. The large size is large enough to use as a beach towel. The smaller size is an oversize hand towel. They are exactly as pictured and roll up together to fit easily into the carry case.

Good towels
Brought these on a trip to Costa Rica for hiking,waterfalls, beaches, zip lining, and hot springs. Very useful, and quick drying. Left over the back seat of the car or hang drying inside and always dry for the next use. Great, compact and practical use. Would recommend.

I shouldn't be but I'm shocked
After reading some of the reviews here I decided on purchasing this. I needed something compact when I'll be traveling to Thailand and I thought it be best that I try this out before my travels. I have not wash this before using it, just right out of the package. I used this for 7 days straight after my regular showers and it works amazingly leaving me totally dry not just the body but my hair also with no problems. Remember that I used this 7 days straight after my regular showers and the towel has no smell to it, seriously. I got the blue one and paid $16.99 and satisfied.

beyond expectations
Just as promised. I got the (5- one for each family member) on recommendation from my brother. Great size and works great. I tested the towel out last night after a shower and it did a great job. Not heavy when wet and dries ( it seems) in seconds. Going down south for vacation so these are a must. Also we are big campers and I can see these working great.

Meh
I decided to test the small one first by using it as a hand drying towel. Although they dried my hands very well, the towel still wasn’t completely dry after about 20 minutes of having it completely exposed to the air, so I am a little disappointed in it’s drying ability. I tested my friend’s Pack Towl for comparison and it dried much faster. Should have gone with that brand.

Great quality. Great value.
Not all micro fibre towels are created equal. This is a high quality microfibre towel - large, thick, super absorbent, heavy duty tag for hanging it up, and dries quickly. I use mine as a bath towel because I was so tired of drying myself with a damp regular towel. I hang the smaller towel over the tub faucet and use it to wipe down the tub and shower after use. I am purchasing 3 additional towels for family members, all in royal blue. As I don't care for light bright colors for towels, I only wish there were alternate darker colors available (example: dark blue (sold out) charcoal, burgundy, dark green).

Works well, doesn't fit fully though on my mat
Good towel however I noticed the particles were on my clothes after the workout, so the material although great at quick dry, is breaking apart. I didn't use any fabric softener on it as instructed and was washed only once too. For the price though I still recommend it.

These are great! small and compact
I'm actually quite impressed with these towels. I'm not a fan of microfiber but I needed something I could carry with me in a pack during backwoods camping trips. These are great! small and compact, dries you quickly and then air dries very fast as well. I would definitely recommend this.

Bought this towel few weeks ago and after that bought ...
Bought this towel few weeks ago and after that bought another set from a different company.The Relefree towel is lighter and thinner than the other brand I bought, but performs just as well.I just bought another set, as the weight and size kind of important for travel....

Gets the job done.
Absorbant but does not have the softness of a regular towel. Wish that it was a bit larger as I originally purchased it to use as a beach towel while in Thailand. I can still wrap it around me but would feel more secure if it was an extra 30cm longer. Blue is a great colour choice as it hides dirt if you are considering this towel for travel use. Overall I was satisfied with my purchase :)

The best quick drying towel I have ever bought
As a frequent traveller and backpacker I wanted a small towel that drys fast for moving from place to place, this is it. This towel is worth the money. I paid for the one body size towel and a small hair/face towel, worth it. I'm so in love with this product I cannot highly recommend it enough. If you are looking for a good fast drying and absorbent towel for travel, buy this one!

Best Towel for minimum space!
Camping or travelling...best towel. Dries quick, soaks up alot. Washes easy. At first I thought it was expensive, but a good quality Egyptian cotton towel is way more expensive and it rolls much smaller for the traveler with minimum space, the minimalist.

Works great
All that you need. The smaller cloth isn't quite big enough to wrap hair which is a bit of a bummer but I use it for my hot yoga now so it still serves a purpose! The large towel was great for my after-gym morning showers, easy to transport and fast drying.

These microfibre towels are just too annoying to use
Next time I would just pack a small regular towel. These microfibre towels are just too annoying to use. They have to be wet already to absorb any moisture, it seems. This towel will probably find a new purpose: drying the exterior of my car after a wash.

Great twp pack
This set is great. It helped that I bought it for so cheap during a on prime day. The two towels are useful as you don't always need the large one. They dry very well. Save yourself the money and buy these instead of the more expensive ones you can find.

Worth getting!
The towels dry quite fast and the quality is good. The only con to me is that the bath towel doesn't absorb water as well as conventional towels but this may be due to the fact it's made from microfiber.I like the packing case. It makes it convenient to pack the towels when you are traveling.

Weak stitching
Great quick wicking towels that work well for travel and camping. Downside is the stitching is not strong at all. After just a few uses and loads of washing it starts to come apart and split at the edges.

Great purchase especially for travellers
I'm 5ft9 at this towel hides everything that needs to be hidden with ease. It's also so light that you can fold it about 20Xand fit in a fanny pack! No joke! Also it dries super fast. You can even leave it in the sun for about 15 minutes and I can guarantee that it will be dry
