CALLIGRAPHY COLLAB TOWEL

BOLD SCRIPT. ZERO FILLER. Quick-dry. Packable. Works in the right ways.

Bold, graphic, and functional in the best possible way.

This ultra-absorbent, quick-dry microfiber towel doubles as a functional piece of art—designed to turn heads while it actually does its job.

ULTRA-ABSORBENT QUICK-DRY TECH ANTIMICROBIAL COMPACT & LIGHTWEIGHT TRAVEL-READY SAND-FREE WEAVE ECO-FRIENDLY MICROFIBER ARTIST-DESIGNED
What makes it different

Graphic simplicity wrapped around real performance.

A clean calligraphy collab on the surface, high-performance microfiber underneath. This one looks gallery-adjacent but still earns its keep at the beach, gym, pool, and on the road.

  • Quick-dry, ultra-absorbent microfiber Soaks up water fast and dries quickly, unlike heavy cotton that stays wet forever.
  • Antimicrobial & odor-resistant Helps resist odor and bacteria so it stays fresher between washes.
  • Compact, lightweight & travel-ready Packs down small for beach bags, backpacks, gym lockers, and carry-ons.
  • Sand-free, shake-clean design Sand and grit don’t cling like they do to cotton terry—just shake and move on.
  • Eco-conscious microfiber 88% of the towel is made from recycled plastic spun into a soft polyester yarn.
  • Exclusive artist collaboration Created with Kevin, a calligraphy wizard, for a graphic look you won’t find in a big-box pile.

Already convinced? Weird. Efficient. We respect it.

How it feels

Smooth, soft, and cleaner than it has any right to be.

Sleek microfiber with a smooth hand feel that sits comfortably against skin after saltwater, chlorine, or a hot shower.

Light on your shoulders, not bulky in your bag, and never stuck in damp-towel purgatory.

Design story

Graphic simplicity with a twist.

We teamed up with Kevin, a calligraphy wizard, to build a towel around custom lettering and not-so-normal color choices.

At first glance it’s simple. The longer you look, the more it reveals—like your brain is half a step behind the design, trying to catch up.

Questions, Answered

What is this towel best for?
Beach days, pool hangs, gym sessions, studio showers, travel, road trips, lake dips, and any situation where you’d happily trade boring gear for something bold and functional.
Does it dry fast?
Yes. The quick-dry microfiber is designed to dry significantly faster than standard cotton towels, making it ideal for repeat use, travel, and small spaces.
Is it sand-free?
It’s designed as a sand-free style towel. Sand and grit don’t cling like they do to cotton terry and shake off easily with a couple of snaps, even when damp.
Is it eco-friendly?
Yes. 88% of the towel is made from recycled plastic that’s spun into a soft polyester yarn and woven into the microfiber. It’s reusable, washable, and durable, which helps cut down on disposable waste and constant towel replacements.
Will it smell?
Its antimicrobial, odor-resistant construction helps it stay fresher between washes—especially if you let it dry fully instead of leaving it balled up in a damp bag or on the floor.

Stuff people ask us

Frequently Asked Questions.

Everything you need to know about the towel you’re about to take absolutely everywhere.

01 What makes Happy Faced towels different?

Happy Faced towels are made for sweat, dirt, sand, water, workouts, road trips, beach days, and wherever else you end up. They’re lightweight, absorbent, quick-drying, easy to pack, and covered in original artwork instead of hotel beige.

02 What are they made of?

Magic. Well, almost. They’re made from high-performance microfiber containing 88% recycled materials. It’s soft, highly absorbent, lightweight, durable, and built to dry much faster than a bulky cotton towel.

03 Do they dry fast?

Very. The microfiber construction spreads moisture across more surface area, helping the towel release water and dry considerably faster than a traditional cotton towel.

04 Are they good for travel?

Absolutely. Happy Faced towels are lightweight, compact, quick to dry, and easy to stuff into a carry-on, backpack, gym bag, van, or questionably packed weekend bag.

05 Can I use one at the beach?

That’s one of their natural habitats. The smooth microfiber construction is sand-resistant, so sand shakes off more easily instead of following you home and moving into your car permanently.

06 Are they eco-friendly?

They’re made with 88% recycled materials and require less space, water, and energy to wash and dry than a heavy cotton towel. They’re also designed to last, because replacing your towel every few months is dumb.

07 Do they resist odors?

Their fast-drying construction gives moisture and mildew less time to settle in. Hang the towel up between uses and it stays fresher much longer than a damp cotton towel abandoned in a heap.

08 Are they machine washable?

Yep. Machine wash cold with similar colors and tumble dry low or hang dry. Skip the bleach, dryer sheets, and fabric softener because they can coat the fibers and reduce absorbency.

09 What sizes do they come in?

Small, Medium, and Large. The Small is great for workouts and daily carry. The Medium handles travel, surfing, and everyday use. The Large gives you full beach-towel coverage and enough room to become a human burrito. See the towel size guide for the full breakdown.

10 How much water can they absorb?

More than four times their own weight in water. Which is impressive for something that packs down small enough to stop ruining the rest of your bag.

A woman in a white bikini stands on a rocky beach, holding up a large blue beach towel with a colorful abstract design and bold white text. The towel is caught in the breeze, billowing behind her. She is smiling and looking toward the ocean, with the bright blue sea and white-capped waves stretching into the horizon. The sky is clear with a few scattered clouds, creating a vibrant and peaceful beach atmosphere.
