The fabric

Soft by nature.
Smart by design.

Over the past five years, we’ve refined our towel fabric through three upgrades, working towards a balance of lightweight comfort and absorbency. Along the way, we’ve improved how the hidden zip pocket is sewn into the towel, with water resistance in mind.

Every refinement comes back to the idea that started Sumoii: carry less, feel carefree and connect with nature.

Whether you’re walking down from your hotel or driving to the coast, the little things still need a place. Our hidden, water-resistant zip pocket gives your room card, car keys or small wallet a home in your towel, so a simple beach visit doesn’t need a separate bag just for your essentials.

Meet the Sumoii Sand-Free Beach Towel 3.0. Refined for 2026. Move lighter. Live freer. Find your natural rhythm.

Then Pack Light.

At 180 × 80 cm, there’s room to settle in on the sand. When it’s time to move, the towel folds down into its travel pouch and slips into your beach tote or weekend bag.

Ready for
the Next Swim.

Quick-drying microfibre makes it easier to move between a dip, a rest and the journey home. Spread your towel out after use and let the air do its work.

Drying time varies with airflow, weather and how wet the towel is.

A few useful details

Before You Head Out.

What is the towel made from?

Sumoii uses soft, absorbent microfibre designed to release sand, dry quickly and fold compactly for travel.

Is the zipped pocket waterproof?

The pocket is water resistant. Use it to keep small essentials together and help protect them from splashes; it is not intended for submersion.

How do the sand pockets work?

Add sand to the three smaller corner pockets to help weigh down the towel. Empty the pockets before folding it away.

How should I care for my towel?

Empty the pockets and shake off sand before washing. Follow the care label on your towel, and allow it to dry fully before storing it in its pouch.
