DRYKIDRYKI Sweat Absorbing Handkerchiefs - The Original Quick-Dry Microfiber Sweat Rags & Towels for Face, Hands, & Body - Perfect for Gym, Sports, and Work (Grey: 5 Pack)Compact by Design (Amazon-developed Certification)

I love the color variety and the fact that there are 10 of these in a pack. Great to have instead of walking around with a pocketful of paper towels, which is kind of tacky looking. These are 4x4" (?), so not too big at all. Very absorbent, soft, and dries quickly. I live in Atlanta and sweat my fanny off a lot, even indoors, in the car before the AC cranks up, at work where the AC could be cooler, you name it. I feel a lot more professional carrying and using this. What a great product, and it has solved some problems.

I've been carrying a handkerchief in my pocket since I was a child. I have had seasonal allergies every season as long as I remember, and my mother would give them to me as a re-usable, washable tissue. That probably sounds gross in the post-pandemic world, but they became more of a security blanket than anything else, a bit of soft comfort to hold onto while walking in the cold.I found other practical uses for them. Cleanup for mini spills, impromptu papercut bandages, and when clean, could clear eyeglasses after getting caught in the rain. I noticed and appreciated whenever I got "the good ones" and made sure to let my mom know what that mean. The kind that would soften up after the first wash, but still retain a bit of roughness. Cotton, absorbent, non-irritating. Definitely nothing sheer and wispy. I became so accustomed having a good hankie on me at all times that I'd seek them out on my own as an adultI quickly found that the kind of "hankies" I liked were difficult if not impossible to find in the pre-online shopping days, and still mostly true today. I'd start with the discount retail stores and sometimes find them in the mens section near the undergarmets, or in a "formal" section pinned together in a plastic box . They were big and white and startchy with lacy monograms in the corner, or small and decorative pocket squares that weren't very usable. I'd opt for the larger ones despite the bulk as I knew they'd shrink a little after awhile. I would try to get 100% cotton or at least a blend and never any sort of irritable synthetic.I eventually gave up looking for "the good ones" in stores and would simply get bandanas at bodegas and cut them up into halves or squares as they were so big. These worked well enough but would frey out eventually and I'd end up with a drawer full of stringy rags.More recently I'd look online and occasionally order a set. I did find a few that had the right texture, but always too bulky for practical pocket use.My shredded bandanas on their last legs, I stumbled upon the DRYKI brand on here and gave them a shot. Immediately even before breaking them in with a wash I felt the difference in the fabric. Different than the ones I used as a child but felt great in their own way: slightly thicker and bigger than most eyeglass cleaning cloths, not flimsy and don't wrinkle or pick up lint in the dryer. At 10" x 10", perfectly pocketable even in slim jeans. I liked that I could get them in solid black rather than plaid like the other's I've tried from online. The logo in the corner,if they were even there, must have been a relief that smoothed out during the first wash. Btw, they are wrinkle-free even after being in your pocket all day!My only quibbles, if I can even call them that, are that it's more noticeable than other hankies when these are dirty. But it's helpful to me to more easily see when they need to be washed if I find one on the floor. Also, if you have a separate drawer for cleaning cloths these might end up in their sometime.Finally, a note in the box stating they are a small American business was nice to see. I didn't really click with the "sweat rag" marketing approach they're going for, but I can totally see how they could be used that way, though not at the same time you'd be usng them as a tissue!I didn't keep researching after finding these and while there may be other good 10x10 hankies out there, I really like these and have already purchased a second set.Hopefully they add a few more colorways; in addition to black, maybe earth tones or dark blue. The neon and pastel options they offer are not for me.All in all a great buy, and will likely be back for a third set sooner than later :)p.s. getting sleepy while typing this. please forgive any typos or bad grammar! cheers

When summer days get warm, these pack nicely in my purse and do a wonderful job of soaking up sweat! I also take them along with me when I run. Highly recommend!

I use these at the gym. They fit in leggings pocket and mop the sweat….Remember to include in a load that you do not use fabric softener in.

Affordable, cute, and functions as expected.

Washes well

As a man who sweats a lot this has became my best friend. Put it in your back pocket or use it as a pocket square in your suit jackets. The don’t stink which I think they’re odor-proof (if that’s a word) and the dry quick and I throw mine in the washer and dryer and they still are as good as new!

For some reason I've always carried a folded handkerchief in my pocket. Over the years I've tried expensive ones, cheap ones, middlin' ones, ones woven from bamboo, ones with silly patterns, black ones, white ones, "wrinkle-free" ones, cotton, silk... you might say wasting money on cloth squares is a hobby of mine.These DRYKI etc. etc. etc. Handkerchiefs were the latest whim, and... it's complicated.Good: they're FAR better made than many more expensive options. Great edge stitching and soft as you'd expect a microfiber to be. Silky-chamois. They curl a little in the wash, but don't stain or wrinkle easily.Not as Good: they're an odd size: slightly smaller than a traditional handkerchief while being 3-4X thicker, so they fold into a tiny square with twice the overall bulk. They're absorbent for some things but less so for others; what they do absorb they hold on to, so by the end of the day it feels a little like you're carrying a squashed cherry tomato in your pocket.As microfiber cloths for cleaning eyeglasses and whatnot, these are great. But they're just not ideal as handkerchiefs.
