Klassiek Streep Strandlaken

This thing truly dries you off fast—the velour surface feels plush and the cotton weave is dense enough that one pass gets most of the water. Laid it out on the sand and it stayed put even with a breeze, and it’s big enough to share with my girlfriend without anyone getting sandy.

I was worried it would be too thin, but the cotton weave is dense and the towel stays put even in a gusty wind. It dried me off completely after a swim, and the large size means I can actually stretch out on it without touching sand.

The velour surface is seriously plush, so it feels way more luxurious than my old cotton towels. It soaked up every drop of water after a dip, and I love that it’s big enough to actually wrap around me.
