Background
In October 2023, I decided to get a towel that is compact and quick to dry to use for my trip to Bangkok. I recalled that Matador has such a towel: the Matador NanoDry Packable Shower Towel Large. As such, I searched online for it and purchased it.
The Stuff
The Matador NanoDry Packable Shower Towel Large that I purchased comes in Slate Blue. It comes with a silicon case so that the towel can be kept.
Based on Matador's website, here are the technical specifications and materials of the stuff:
Weight: 5.6oz (160g)
Case Dimensions: 5.2 x 3.2 x 2in (13.21 x 8.13 x 5.08cm
Towel Dimensions: 52 x 24in (132 x 60cm)
Materials
- Towel: Nanofiber material, PFC-free
- Travel case: Silicone, anodized aluminum carabiner
Here are some pictures that I have taken to show what the stuff looks like:

Usage and Experience
I had the Matador NanoDry Packable Shower Towel Large for about 4 weeks since this post. As mentioned, I used this during my trip to Bangkok, and I am happy to say that it does what it states.
As I use it after my shower, I feel that the absorption is good. At first use, I felt strange as I was used to those thick bath towels and this is very thin. After a few times, I got used to it.
As my accommodation during my trip has no balcony or open area to hang laundry, I hang it on a drying rack that is provided in the air-conditioned room to dry after using it. This is where the quick dry comes into play and it does feel dry after leaving it overnight.
