Would it be a good purchase for a workout towel? just to carry around the gym while working out?

That's what I use it for. You will need to wash it a few times before it gets soft though...

This would be an excellent choice and is exactly what I use mine for. I prefer the large towel as it gives excellent coverage the handlebars of a spin bike. If you just need to wipe sweat the medium would probably be sufficient.

I don't wrap mine, it's better when working out. But you can stick it under the armband I gues, that's what I would do If I needed.

It's not a towel. It doesn't absorb. It's more of a scrub cloth. Think of a flexible loofa. Great for lifting dead skin.

I believe they would work for that purpose. Very nice towels in my opinion.

It is a towel/blanket. Supposed to be pretty absorbant and dries quickly. That said, I've never used mine as a towel; I've only used it as a blanket that I bring with to yoga class. It is not a bathrobe--not sure why they would mention that?

I would add,if you sew two together you have a much better towel for use. They do absorb well,not almost repel water like some of the new fancy ones. I would think the company might consider offering in two sizes .

I'd say no. I am 5' 2" & purchased the medium- it just barely covers my top and bottom when wrapped around my body. GREAT TOWEL & super light, might as well at least get the medium or even a large for comfort. I strapped it on outside of my bag and couldn't even feel a weight difference. Super soft and dries within 30 minutes or so.

It is very absorbent, and it dries well. It is nothing like what you think a towel would be, but it is big and it works well, and is lightweight.

Yoga is the only thing I haven't used this towel for.... yet... but I would, and know that the comfort and versatility of it will be useful to you. This towel has replaced many things for me; I can use it for just about anything. Good luck to you!

It all depends on the intended use. I bought mine for camping. I am a big guy, so I chose the beach towel size. Once I got it, it appears to be a little bigger than a beach towel. In hindsite I could have gone smaller for the sake of packing.

It depends on the activities the person does! I do yoga and travel so the beach size is perfect for me and when it folds is very small. I guess you could go one size smaller which will be a bathroom towel. Hope this helps.

No. It is for working out and not thick or wide enough. It is like the kind LeBron James wears during a basketball game

I use this with Lululemon's "The Mat" without any issue. I've never used the Manduka Pro, but think it would work well--the rubber grip dots on the bottom of the towel get good traction on the stickiness of the mat without digging into it, and my towel generally stays put through all 90 minutes of hot yoga class.

My workout shorts are too thick for the clip to fit perfectly. I usually have to either put it in my pockets or on the machine while I work out. I can walk with it on no problem. You may have a difficult time clipping it to workout shorts depending on how thick they are. I don't think it would clip well to a workout shirt since the fabric, at least on mine, are too thin. My main purpose of getting it was for work more than the gym. I do find that it doesn't skip if its in my pocket.

I have notice some moisture build up if I use it after a work out, I hate that it doesn't come with the clip and having to hold it by the strap makes it hard to lift weights or do anything while holding it.I'm waiting for marware brand to come up with a model with a clip, it has been my favorite brand for the past 10 years.I mainly use mine for the gym. Hope this info helps you .

I think that would work, the towels are like thin cloths and are strong and flexible. Attaching one to a mop, like the kind that has holes in the back, is a good idea. They seem rather pricey at first but do last a long time and are machine washable.(if not too grubby).

It would work, have room for extras. Could add couple of towels for extra padding if needed.
