I have before that the large version used as a cloth while swimming at the lake to dry myself and was amazed at how well it dries to be really wet without. Especially when large cloth still is the extremely small pack size and the weight of it. Just awesome. So I also bought the smallest to wipe the sweat from his face with my mountain tours can. Ingenious details) even when large cloth available) is the loop, including push-button, which I can attach it to the backpack easily and always have at hand, without unpack it or lose weight need. Because dangling freely on backpack, it dries naturally also according Schell. However, the fabric moves not through the skin, as you're used to from a cotton cloth. Handling is therefore somewhat different. Especially for the small model we spotted more than that you rub or wipe. But I do not feel disruptive. The price for such a small piece of cloth is already high but due to the performance absolutely ok. A great companion for all outdoor fans.
