Property me this towel bought in duplicate for the sport coupled with two towels that I use for the sauna. These small towels I take into the studio and they serve their purpose well. They are absorbent, very light and because of the color you see any spots, what was important to me when buying. Welding and sports go together, but with remnants of hair gel / hair wax you have in bright towels ruckzuck unaesthetic gray haze. In this respect, the black towels are perfect. Before "Commissioning" would recommend to wash them beforehand. After that they have supplied at least for us, neither more nor color fluff it. I am very pleased.
