4Monster Camping Towels Super Absorbent, Fast Drying Microfiber Travel Towel, Quick Dry Ultra Soft Compact Gym Towel for Swimming Beach Hiking Yoga Travel Sports Backpack (59.00" x 30.00", Army Green)

My husband and I enjoy camping. So much it's pretty much exclusively the way we go on vacation. We typically visit the east coast in the Carolinas (this is important for the review, I promise lol). Whenever we camp we typically stay at a state park due to health reasons that involve needing to have an electrical hookup, and we tent camp, so we have to use the bathroom facilities on site. Plus the state parks in the Carolinas are lovely, but that's besides the point.I'm not sure about you guys but if you've ever camped in South Carolina in the middle of fall it's about as hot and humid as a construction worker's armpit in the middle of summer. It's sticky. Needless to say, I was tired of our beach and bathing towels never drying out and just being heavy and awkward and taking up too much room when we pack and being a general P.I.T.A whenever we have to go shower (we also have 2 golden retrievers that go everywhere with us... They're sponges. They love water. We camp on the coast. I think you can see where I'm going with this).I decided enough was enough and I was going to look at some alternatives to regular terry cloth towels. After some reviewing, I found these towels. I convinced my skeptical husband to pick out a color- Navy- and I got the orange. They arrived quickly and were well packaged. I laundered them before we used them and I was a little concerned they were going to be difficult to fold back up properly to fit back into the case- I was worried for nothing. Just pay attention when you unfold them for the first time and you'll see how the manufacturer folded them and it's very easy to replicate. They fit back in their cases just fine. You basically fold it in half like a hamburger and then fold it in half like a hotdog until it's the width of the case, then fold it like a half hamburger until it's small enough to fit in the case. Easier than folding a map, but if you're worried practice it with the towel a couple times before you wash it so the creases in the fabric can guide you. Now to the meat of the review.The TowelsI love the material they're made of. It's soft in both texture and hand feel, and it's a quality & sturdy material that's still very lightweight. It's incredibly absorbant and dries very quickly, even in the humidity of the southern US east coast. They don't smell funky or mildewy even after a couple days of use. The strap on the corner is an incredibly thoughtful design and is great for hanging the towels up in the bathroom or in the tent to dry. The colors did not bleed on the first wash, even washing the orange and navy together, and appear to be holding well. The overlock stitching on the edges is made with a soft thread that isn't rough in the slightest and does not scratch- I'm a hobbyist seamstress and I'm impressed by the quality and evenness of the stitching. I feel though, at the end of the day, if anything wears out, it will be the stitching, but I don't believe it's a quality issue with the materials. Just regular wear over time. I have short hair, as does my husband, so unfortunately I can't weigh in on how well the towels handle drying long hair. It does great with short hair, though I do have to say it's weird the first couple times drying your hair with fabric that isn't terry cloth. It still works great, just very interesting sensory-wise.The CaseThe case gets it's own part of the review because I like it so much and it multiplies the convenience of the towels tenfold. Firstly, I love the design and it tickles the magpie part of my brain that the accent colors match the towel. Is it functional outside of color matching? No. Does it give my brain serotonin? Yes. Yes it does. I also love the laser cut outs in the case. It lets the towel breathe after it's folded up on the off chance there's still moisture in the fabric so it doesn't mold. If you have Trypophobia you may want to avoid it though. I love the little clip that's on the case- that's just plain handy and seems sturdy. The zipper is quite nice too- it hasn't snagged the fabric of the towel yet. It's a well made case with a rubberized outside and a soft fabric lining and a rubberized zipper. I suspect the first thing to wear out would be the zipper, but I imagine it would take a *lot* of wear to achieve that or unusual use or an accident.Overall I would highly recommend this towel. My husband was so impressed that he asked if we could get 2 of the largest size towels for the dogs. If you knew my husband that speaks volumes of itself- he's very critically minded and values function above form. Regular towels are bulky and take up too much space. These are convenient, pack down to practically nothing, are lightweight, absorbant, and dry quickly. They do exactly as advertised. Once I get the towels for the dogs (they're our children and are absolutely spoiled haha) I'll write another review to let folks know how they hold up to two very active golden retrievers with a preference for retrieving mud and dirt and all other delightful gifts from nature. If you're on the fence I would definitely go for it!

I love how portable these camping towels are, and i really love the little case they come in. Size of the towel was great, and i like that it has a snappable/unsnappable loop on the towel itself for easy hanging. The towel is so thin, i really didn't expect it to absorb all of the water from my body with the speed that i wanted it to (camping in pretty cold weather, showers were exposed to the cold air, so i wanted to by dry FAST so i wouldn't freeze), but it really worked! At first, since the air was so cold, I didn't realize i was dry, so i did a second swipe over my body and realized i was already all dry! The towel itself dries pretty quickly as well, despite itself being exposed to such cold and pretty humid air. I'd buy it again except I don't expect to have to anytime soon, because it seems pretty durable.

We bought a few hand towel sized ones in 2024 to use for drying dishes while camping. They work fabulously and I love how quickly they dry. Since they worked so well for drying our camp dishes we decided to buy the beach size towels for showering. Campground showers can be very humid and it can be challenging to get dry enough before putting your clothes on but these towels work great. While they don't necessarily get you 100% dry out of the shower in our experience they work much better than standard cotton towels do, and again, the drying time of the towels is short compared to traditional cotton towels. I especially love that they each have a case to keep them clean between camping trips and that they take up so little space.

Nice towel. Does the job and dries quick.

Esta toalla 4Monter me sorprendió para bien. Es ligera, suave y súper absorbente, perfecta para llevar al gimnasio, la playa o usar en casa. Seca rápido y no ocupa mucho espacio, así que también es ideal para viajes.Después de varias lavadas sigue en buen estado y no pierde su efectividad.Conclusión:Una excelente opción si buscas una toalla funcional, compacta y de buena calidad. ¡La volvería a comprar sin dudar!

Big size light weight! I take this to my backpacking trips! I use it as towel, wet it and put over my head to cool my body, or even on the floor to take a nap. It can get heavy when it's wet but that just means the towel can absorb a lot of water whuch is impressive because it's thin soft material. It also dries quick so very convenient.

This towel is literally the best. I was nervous on getting it didn’t really think it would actually be fast drying and absorbing but it dries fast. It is light weight and easy to carry around with me being a camp counselor this summer surrounded by the lake this towel is perfect.

It’s a towel, works just like it should!!
