Another vote for Decathlon. Fold up really small and dry fast.

stormelf · 14/09/2021 20:03

We got ours from mountain warehouse

eternalopt · 14/09/2021 20:14

ArtfulScreamer · 14/09/2021 20:16

We've got the Dock and Bay towels and I can't fault them.

idontlikealdi · 14/09/2021 20:16

Decathlon

Mooloolabababy · 14/09/2021 20:17

Ooh yes, we have the decathlon ones for swimming and they are also perfect for cub/scout camp as fold up small and are lightweight.

MrsSchadenfreude · 14/09/2021 20:18

Dock and Bay or Decathlon.

Gladioli23 · 14/09/2021 20:18

I got mine from mountain warehouse - they have scouts/d of e/NHS/student discounts as well which can help.

cherrypiepie · 14/09/2021 20:20

Mine were 2.50 from the midi of Lidl and they are amazing! Just have to keep an eye out for them

The fluffy microfibre from decathlon

Is this the ‘ultra soft’ version. Can’t see a fluffy version.

OP posts:

arield · 14/09/2021 21:23

Yep the ultra soft

HungryHippo11 · 14/09/2021 21:27

Mountain Warehouse ones are good. If you go in store they're often on the "half price if you buy any other item". I got a bath towel sized one for £3.99 lovely bright purple

Noworneverever · 14/09/2021 22:00

Another vote for decathlon, loads of colours and sizes to choose from, we all have different so don't mix up.

EcoCustard · 14/09/2021 22:08

We have lots of decathlon ones, small & big ones, smooth & fluffy ones. All different colours so no rows.

Clymene · 14/09/2021 22:13

We have many decathlon towels. I use the fluffy ones to dry my hair. The smooth ones are brilliant for sea swimming. Sand just falls off. And yes everyone has their own colour
