Know before you buy
The MicroTerry™ fabric has a distinct, smooth texture that feels more technical and less plush than a standard cotton towel. While it lacks the thick loops of traditional terry cloth, it is designed to be highly functional, lightweight, and efficient at wicking moisture.
Yes, the tight weave of the MicroTerry™ material is specifically designed to resist sand. Unlike cotton towels that trap sand in their loops, this towel allows you to shake off debris easily before packing it away.
Thanks to its high-performance synthetic construction, the Nomadix Original Towel dries up to four times faster than a standard cotton towel. In most environments, it will be dry and ready to pack within a few hours.
Absolutely. Its 72.5-inch length makes it large enough for full-body use, and its ability to absorb four times its weight in water makes it a highly effective bath towel. Its quick-drying properties also help it stay fresher for longer between washes.
The material is naturally resistant to 'funk,' but you should still machine wash it in cold water and tumble dry on low or hang to dry. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the towel's absorbency over time.
