What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I like the Kyoto Beach Towel because it works well for both lounging and drying off. The velour front feels really smooth when you lay it out on the sand, and the terry back absorbs water quickly after a swim."Beach days usually revolve around the same simple routine-swim, dry off, stretch out in the sun-and the Kyoto Beach Towel fits naturally into that rhythm. Designed by Slowtide, it gives us a soft place to relax between swims while staying absorbent enough to dry off comfortably after time in the water. The towel's 400 GSM cotton construction balances plush comfort with reliable absorbency. A smooth velour face creates a comfortable surface for lounging, while the looped terry back pulls moisture away from the skin after a swim.
