I can't lie, I thought this was going to be a little bigger than it was. I may have been slightly disappointed at first, but once I opened it up and felt it and realized it is exactly like my big yoga towel to cover my yoga mat I was ecstatic. Now I have the small one to wipe the sweat from my face or take it when I run and I have the big one to lay over my yoga mat to catch the sweat and protect me from sweating and sticking to the mat. It is very soft and works very well in clearing the sweat from my forehead and knee pits and the towel doesn't "fill" too quickly either.
