http://www.swell.com/Guys-ONEILL/ONEILL-MONSOON-CHANGE-TOWEL?cs=BL SHAME ON YOU O'NEILL!!!!! SHAME ON YOU!!!!!! here is a product review I found online: "Its a perfect item for people who wear boardshorts with zippers and don't surf all that often."
imo, a regular beach towel works fine, but whatever. I've seen people wearing these or something similar and they look like an o.k. product...except for the weird low cut chest and chopped off arms. But 50 bucks!?...that's the only reason oneill should be ashamed. A large beach towel only costs 10 bucks...or you can buy a dark terry robe for $15 and just sew the front shut.
i asked my mom if she could make me one...she enjoys sewing. She basically took the template of a poncho...a bit of fleece and sewed it all up. Bet it cost around $5 buck in material and labor...$50=$45 for the stitched O'neill and $5 for the rest. Wish I thought of it first...
