      Hi Siamak! Thanks for your comment and for the suggestion too! It really means a lot that you like the review and the work that has gone into it 😊😊 And I'll definitely keep the Nomadix ultralight in mind. I think the quality should be as superb as the Nomadix Original though. But I don't think I'll update this anytime in the near future for now, it took too much work XD But I definitely would if things change too much or my opinion changes 😊

  • @brittanykirkpatrick3616

    Impressively thorough review! I decided to go with Nomadix towels for our family for the greatest actual towel function and feel for the space it occupies. I have sensory issues so the sticky or snaggy feel is a major trigger for me and some of my kids. I also know my husband has little patience for something that doesn't WORK and he's a big lumberjack of a man--so I don't care how compact something is, if it doesn't perform the function it needs to perform, it's a no. I also sent my middle son to summer camp with an REI multitowel and it came back hopelessly saturated with dry grass splinters. Considering the price and the fact that it was brand new, I proceeded to spend HOURS picking the grass out with tweezers. I have relegated this towel to our camp kitchen packout box. The feel of the Nomadix was wonderful for such a thin towel and it was big enough to wrap up in. It folds down quite small for us...a 7x7x1 square. I also love that it serves as light blanket if needed AND best of all comes in so many fun designs, I was able to get a personalized look for each family member which helps my kiddos be more personally responsible as they take pride in their personal gear. I do wish it came with a zippered pouch or even just an elastic loop to pack up in.
    I would be curious to hear your thoughts on the slowtide towel in comparison to some of these others. I bought one for myself as my "ultralight" towel (though I doubt it qualifies for true ultralight campers) because I like the option of a more compact towel if we need it and they had a gorgeous floral design I couldn't pass up. I have not used it in the wild, but really like the feel of it. I still need to get a "smooth" ultralight-style microfiber for the rest of the family.

    • @CampingGuidance
      @CampingGuidance  Před rokem

      Thank you so much Brittany! I'm glad that you decided to go with the Nomadix as well, it sounds like it fits you and your family really well! And yes it's definitely super functional, and I LOVE the designs too! None of my other camping towels even come close to the Nomadix in terms of fun designs. Oh man I'm so sorry to hear about the REI towel. I had the same experience too sadly. Maybe that's why they retired the Multi Towel haha. And thanks for the heads up on the slowtide towel! I'm not actually planning to get any new towels at the moment, but I'll definitely keep it in mind for the future 😊 Oh and if you're looking for a smooth ultralight style microfiber I do have another video on the Best Backpacking towels. Maybe that's something you might be interested in 😊

    • @CampingGuidance

      Hey Bo Bui, thanks so much for the input! I haven't tested Norwex towels, so sorry about that. Actually some of my camping towels (like PackTowl and Matador) also have antimicrobial treatment, and I found that it makes the towel smell less for sure. The Norwex towel might have the same benefit too :)

      You're welcome Ricky! I can't quite remember if I washed my towels before first use (I might not have washed a few before using them). But I highly recommend washing them before first use, as most of my towels bled quite a bit. I also recall some brands saying that towels tend to perform better after being washed the first time. Hope this helps! Feel free to let me know if you have any other questions :)

    • @CampingGuidance
      @CampingGuidance  Před 2 lety +1

      Thank you so much Chris! I'm really glad that you liked the review! 😊 My go-to towel for swimming and water parks is actually the Nomadix! But that's because I love the design and size (beach size), and weight isn't a big issue for me. The Nomadix is a little heavy though (17.2oz). If that's too heavy/big for you, I'd recommend the PackTowl Luxe (10.8oz). It's more absorbent and has better odor control than the Nomadix. If that's also a bit too heavy then I'd go for the PackTowl Personal (6.5oz). Hope this helps!
