ZOE RADFORD SIDEKICK TOWEL

COSMIC CURRENTS Quick-dry. Packable. Slightly mystical.

The Cosmic Currents Sidekick Towel is more than something to dry off with. It is a small act of cosmic alignment for beach days, pool hangs, late swims, and weekends that feel a little charged.

Mystical on the outside. Practical in the details. Quick-drying, compact, and weirdly good at doing its job.

SUPER ABSORBENT QUICK-DRY MICROFIBER ANTIMICROBIAL ODOR-RESISTANT COMPACT & LIGHTWEIGHT SAND-RESISTANT 88% RECYCLED POLYESTER ARTWORK BY ZOE RADFORD
What makes it different

Looks cosmic. Acts practical. Always down for one more swim.

Cosmic Currents has the whole sun-and-moon thing going on, but the real magic is that it is reliable, low-maintenance, and useful enough to earn permanent bag status.

  • Super absorbent and quick-drying Absorbs water fast and dries much faster than typical cotton, so you are not wrapping yourself in a cold, soggy nebula.
  • Antimicrobial and odor-resistant Helps resist odor and bacteria so the post-beach smell stays more sea breeze than swamp moon.
  • Compact and lightweight Packs down small for beach bags, backpacks, weekend trips, festivals, and carry-ons.
  • Sand-resistant weave Its smooth microfiber weave holds far less sand and grit than cotton terry, so most loose debris shakes off easily.
  • Recycled and durable construction Made with 88% recycled polyester and built to orbit your life for longer than one season.
  • Original artist design Suns, moons, flowing lines, and cosmic details that make laying it out feel like a tiny ritual.

Already convinced? Weird. Efficient. We respect it.

How it feels

Soft, light, and weirdly comforting.

Smooth microfiber with an easy drape that feels more like wrapping up in a warm night sky than a stiff hotel towel.

No scratchiness. No waterlogged drag. Just quick-drying comfort.

Design story

The sun, the moon, and a little magic.

Designed by Zoe Radford , Cosmic Currents brings together suns, moons, and flowing lines that echo tides, constellations, and those nights when everything feels a little charged.

It is timeless, a little trippy, and absolutely the towel you would bring to a beach bonfire after checking your horoscope.

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.
