Written by the company

The Art of Drying Off. Founded by way of California and Hawaii in 2015, three friends started Slowtide as a product of their lifestyle. After spending long days at the beach, they realized that there was no towel that was both exciting and fit their daily needs; so they set out to create one. Dario Phillips, Kyle Spencer, and Wylie Von Tempsky left their corporate jobs to build a new canvas for art in the form of a towel. Inspired by all bodies of water and a love of art, Slowtide is a collaboration of three friends who wanted to convey their lifestyle through unique products.

Hi Cyril,

Thank you for your feedback.

Having investigated this further, your consignment was sent on time. When the courier attempted delivery you were out so they delivered it to a local shop for collection instead. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Best wishes

Too big, while hood is small and makes the whole poncho to hang on a head instead of shoulders.

The choosing between L/XL and M/S was somewhat limited. Based on my height, I chose L/XL but it was in fact too big for me.
Also, wearing a hood was a little cumbersome - the whole got dragged up and in fact started to hang on my head alone, ignoring the shoulders in a way. Maybe making hood bigger would help?
One way or another, i've sent the poncho back (shipping turned out to be quite costly) and still waiting for your confirmation that it was received. I'm waiting for the refund eventually.

Hi Vyacheslav,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Sorry to hear that your poncho wasn't quite right for you.

Once the poncho has arrived back to us we will, of course, issue a full refund for the original cost.

If there is anything we can do to help don't hesitate to reach out to us!

Best wishes

Great deal

Today I have received my blanket.
And I am deeply impressed.
The blanket is a 'must have' for my wife being a great Beatles fan.
The quality of the material and the design is gorgeous, a real eye catcher.
If we had a vacant wall, we would have used it as a tapestry. But since our walls are already used for different decorations, my wife will use it as blanket when sitting on the sofa or watching TV - heating has become luxury, so a warm blanket is worth a mint and such a beautiful one will indulge the eyes.
And last but not least, the delivery was really fast.
Great deal, worth to be repeated at any time in future.

No free returns only exchange

The quality of the waffle towel isn’t as I would have expected it. The return conditions doesn’t make any sense to me as the products don’t come in sizes you would just exchange to up or down. I have to pay for the return shipping now which I’m not very happy with!
