Full-Size Coverage Without Full-Size Bulk

The GEAR AID Quick Dry Micro-Fiber Towel XL Coyote is built for people who want real towel coverage without packing a bulky cotton towel. It is absorbent, quick-drying, lightweight, and compact enough for camping, backpacking, travel, gym bags, beach days, paddling, vehicle kits, range bags, and field gear.

This XL Coyote version measures 35" x 62", giving you the most coverage in the Quick Dry Micro-Fiber Towel lineup. It is the best choice when you want a larger towel for drying off after swimming, showering, paddling, workouts, or long outdoor days, but still want something that packs smaller than a traditional towel.

This product is also commonly searched under the legacy name McNett Tactical Microfiber Ultra Compact Towel - XL - Coyote, especially by shoppers looking for the tactical/outdoor version by its older product name.

Why Choose the XL Coyote Version?

The XL size is the coverage-first option. Medium is best for minimal packing. Large is the balanced size. XL is the one you choose when you want more body coverage, more surface area, and more versatility around camp, water, travel, or field use.

The coyote brown color fits naturally with camping gear, hunting gear, range bags, outdoor packs, tactical-style equipment, and vehicle kits. It looks practical, hides dirt better than lighter colors, and does not scream “beach towel” when it is packed with outdoor gear.

Key Features

Absorbs Five Times Its Weight in Water

This microfiber towel is designed to absorb five times its weight in water, which makes it useful after swimming, showering, paddling, beach trips, workouts, or wet-weather camping.

Dries Quickly

Quick-dry microfiber fabric helps the towel dry faster than a standard cotton towel. That matters when you need to hang it, pack it, reuse it, or keep the rest of your gear from getting damp.

XL 35" x 62" Coverage

The XL size gives you the most coverage in the lineup. Use it as a full-body towel, beach towel, camp towel, boat towel, gear cover, light blanket, sunshade, or backup towel in your vehicle.

Packs Down Small

Even though it is the largest size, the XL towel still packs down small and weighs under 11 oz. That makes it much easier to carry than a standard cotton towel.

SILVADUR Odor-Resistant Treatment

The towel uses SILVADUR antimicrobial treatment to help keep odors under control between uses. That is especially useful for camping, travel, gym bags, humid climates, and repeat use away from home.

Soft Micro Suede Feel

The micro suede fabric feels comfortable on skin and helps remove water, oil, dirt, and perspiration after a long day outdoors.

Mesh Storage Bag Included

The included mesh storage bag keeps the towel organized and easy to pack. It can also hold small items like toiletries, keys, or a phone.

Hanging Snap Loop and Sewn Grommets

The attached hanging snap loop makes drying easier, while sewn grommets add more utility when you want to hang, tie down, or use the towel as a blanket, tarp-style cover, or sunshade.
