Stephen Joseph Boy's Hooded Towel, Shark, One Size

 (3 customer reviews)

My wife likes this towel because it is "nice and big and it is cute." It didn't pill up on first or subsequent washes like other towels have done. One criticism is that they are a tad bit thin. They still do a fine job in being absorbent. She would also like them to be "a tad bit longer". She says that they are marketed for a 3-6 year-old and thinks that, with a six-year-old, the towel would "cut off at the bum." But they are spacious around. As a dad all I know is that they are towels and they dry my kids off.

I bought this as a present for my son after he completed one of his swimming badges. He's the "shark" lol so this towel seemed fitting. It is what you would think, basic beach towel consistency (not super soft and plush). Also my son was just turning 6 and it was kinda small for him, so I would not suggest to purchase for age's beyond 6 it would be to small. He liked the idea of the shark towel so he enjoyed the present, however the novelty wore off for both of us quick so I'm back to the plush towels again for swimming. Hope this helps...

bought this as a gift for a friend's child--it turned out to be great for the pool and he loved the fact that it had a fin on the back AND little pockets for his hands on the corners. Made it easy to hold it wrapped around him.
