Absorbency with perfectly! Have the towel given my husband, who has but the sport always sweats always lack of space in his gym bag. he is very happy and has really enjoyed! However, I have a little annoyed because I've been searching for a towel that is not blue and have here a supposedly gray found was even willing CA10 spend more, just so it is not blue, because blue towels have many companies cheaper and then comes the towel here and is still blue :( I was very unfortunate because we find neither blue so great
