I am in love with this hooded towel. Cotton - super absorbent and comfy. I live in a retirement village and wear the towel every day on my trips to and from pool. Also wear it to and from sea swimming - stripping off in its shelter and coming home swinging my dripping togs. An added thrill doing that one day walking past large numbers of Mongrel Mob Members in full regalia. I smiled. Am buying these for mokopuna for ease of post swim class, club, sea swim etc. Fabulous thank you. Jiff
