5 Reasons Why We Love Quick-Dry Towels
  1. Speed: They dry you off quickly and themselves in no time. Each towel absorbs 4x its weight in water, thanks to its 100% post-consumer waste composition.
  2. Lightweight: Toss it over your shoulder, your board, or in a backpack and go. Because keeping things light and breezy is where it’s at, nobody wants a wet blanket (or towel) weighing them down.
  3. Versatility: More than a way to dry off, you can slip your Quick-Dry between boards on the way to the beach, wrap up that wet swimsuit before tossing it into your bag, or throw some shade when you need to hide out from the sun.
  4. Packability: Fold, roll, or scrunch them—these compact microfiber towels are perfect for travel.
  5. Style: The double-sided print lets you express yourself from any angle. Plus, it does double duty as a hair wrap to keep your back and shoulders dry after you’re out of the water.
Frequently Asked Questions
  • What is the difference between Quick-Dry Towels and Beach Towels?

The main difference between the Quick-Dry towel and the Beach towel, is the type of fabric that is used. The Quick-Dry towel is a microfiber material that is made from 100% post-consumer waste, primarily plastic water bottles. They are compact and ultra lightweight which makes them dry out incredibly fast. The Beach towel is made with a super soft and absorbent fabric that is entirely made out of cotton. It's thicker, more plush and has that classic terry cloth feel. 

  • What is the difference between Quick-Dry Towels and Performance Quick-Dry Towel?

They're kind of like siblings, conceptually similar but with their own unique twists. The main difference is the towel's texture and weight. Our Performance Quick-Dry Towels have a terry-like texture and are slightly more heavier. Due to the towel's weight, it'll be a little more absorbent on your body than the traditional version. Our traditional quick-dry towel opts for a smooth texture, keeping things sleek and efficient.

Both options are lightweight and packable but if you're more concerned about the towel drying time speed, our traditional quick-dry option is the way to go.

  • How many water bottles are recycled in your polyester?

Our lightweight Quick-Dry towels save approximately 13 plastic bottles. Our performance Quick-Dry towels save approximately 23 plastic bottles.

    Great!

    Quick delivery to Honolulu, Hawaii. Great size and feel. A little on the thicker side; dries quickly. Love the design. Nice customer service. Would definitely order more from Slowtide for its quality and customer service. Got a deal for free delivery during Labor Day which I greatly appreciated.

    Practical and beautiful

    Perfect for my application—I bought a second one to keep my car seats dry after my water aerobics classes. Love the print and the texture.
