The Fabric:
* Lisse Crepe -- their original towel. Also the most substantial (heaviest and thickest) of the three versions Aquis offers (Lisse Crepe, Waffle, "Terry")
* Texture: very short pile, no visible loops. Not a fluffy towel.
* Slightly clingy, when drying yourself.
* A little static in the dryer (but not as much as their microfibre "terry" version)
* Very absorbent and lightweight.
* Dries fast
* Comes in many colours and sizes.
Unlike other membrane/spongy camping/outdoor towels:
* You CAN throw this is in the dryer.
* Feels closest to a real towel.
* Will not stiffen-up when dry.
Sizes and uses:
*Size XL is best as a bath towel, b/c you can coverup.
*Size L was the original hair/gym towel size -- longer and narrower. Good for a small child.
*Size M is good as a Hand Towel for when you have people over. It gets damp but not soggy and will still do its job of drying hands.
*Size S [shown here] is washcloth sized and is best used as a washcloth! The slightly clingy texture feels like it cleans out the pores well. This size is also good as a cleaning-up cloth for bathrooms and kitchen counters as it absorbs a lot of water and its clingy texture picks up dirt for its size.
For a softer fluffier version, look at Aquis' Diva Collection which uses their "Terry" weave. Get more detail about Aquis Adventure Microfiber Towel, Graphite, Small (10 x 14-Inches).
