Product Description
In 1990, entrepeneur, Britta Cox, discovered a microfiber fabric. This fabric was soft and lightweight and at the same time was super absorbent. The Aquis towel is woven from the unique Aquitex microfiber, which makes the towels very absorbant and instantly soaks up water on contact. Aquis towels are designed to dry hair and body faster, more thoroughly and more gently than conventional cotton terry. The Aquis towels are convenient easy to take wherever you go. The Aquis towels are lightweight, durable and compact. There are several different sizes to choose from when purchasing the Aquis towel. Also, there are products for your pets, the Aquis doggie dryer towels which is available in two sizes. The AQUIS towels are time savers in your busy schedule as they dry hair five times faster than ordinary towels.

I have several in my car, sports, beach and gym bags.
The Fabric:
* Lisse Crepe -- their original towel.
* Texture: very short pile, no visible loops.
* Slightly clingy, when drying yourself.
* A little static in the dryer (but not as much as their microfibre "terry" version)
* Very absorbent and lightweight.
* Comes in many colours and sizes.
Unlike other membrane/spongy camping/outdoor towels:
* You CAN throw this is in the dryer.
* Feels closest to a real towel.
* XL size covers up more for modesty.
Sizes and uses:
*Size XL is best as a bath towel, b/c you can coverup.
*Size L was the original hair/gym towel size -- longer and narrower. Good for a small child.
*Size M is good as a Hand Towel for when you have people over. It gets damp but not soggy and will still do its job of drying hands.

I purchased 2 of these to use in our Airstream Travel trailer. They are wonderful -- soft and they dry fast. Also a very nice color. They wash nicely and dry without any wrinkles. Microfiber towels sure have come a long way....these are expensive...but you get what you pay for.
Great towel for old and young and a free travel bag April 9, 2007

I got into Aquis microfiber towels because my aged mother does not have the arm strength for big fat terry towels. I then bought some for myself because besides being light they absorb like crazy -- one swipe and you're dry. I decided to get one of the 'adventure' line because information was that they are like the dog-drying towels which are very like the lisse crepe ones. What I didn't realize was not only I buying a very nice towel, it comes in a very nice little nylon zippered bag, mesh on one side to facilitate drying. We're talking the sort of little bag you'd spend about $5 to buy from a travel gear catalog. I was thrilled to pieces. Also in keeping with the 'adventure'-travel theme, these towels have little tags on one corner that can be snapped back on themselves to form a loop to hang the towel from. Very handy for camping, meaningless but not annoying for home use. I like how the loop normally is just a long tag so that the loop does not tangle in the washer.
 Great for camping, too austere for the home bathroom January 20, 2008

Maybe I was expecting too much.
But I tried this out in my bathroom and found...
GOOD:
- Light
- Does dry my body well when rubbed against me closely.
- No fluff/lint/anything residue'd on my body.
NOT-SO-GOOD:
- Just doesn't feel comfy
- Have to carefully press it against me to get the drying benefit (unlike a towel that I can sort of flail around)
If I have the opportunity to use this in situations where saving weight or quick drying is critical, I probably upgrade this to four stars. But for now, it's just underwhelming :(
Very absorbent May 30, 2007

I dried two large dogs after their baths with this towel. It did a great job. It used to take several bath-size towels to get them to that level of dryness. This towel also washes very well and dries quickly.
