Good as a shower towel!
Overall, this towel performs well for shower duties. It takes some getting used to if you're accustomed to long pile, cloth towels as this is a totally different material - more like a shammy cloth for a car, yet it's comfortable to use, Three things to I like about it are how fast it dries itself, and that it never seems to smell like anything at all, which means mildew and bacteria don't seem to hang around on this towel. That might be due to the "DOW anti-bacterial technology" which by itself is a little mysterious and scary sounding, but it seems to work well and we're all gonna die of something one day, anyway (lol). Finally, the overall size (mine is 30x60) is great for travel since it folds down to being no bigger than most t-shirts. About the size, I'm a mostly thin 6'5" man and I find the 30x60 to be just right. Texture wise, it's kind of rubbery and tends to hold onto wet skin instead of allowing for much of a wiping motion. This is especially noticeable if you try to swipe it over your back - chances are it'll hold onto you a bit. For drying hair, it tends to absorb a large amount of water in one place on the towel; more than a conventional cloth towel would except not as deeply. That's due to the thinness of this towel. For that reason, I wouldn't recommend it if you have longish hair (say over 6 inches). It's fine for drying everything else, though.
