Yoga Design Lab Breathe Hot Yoga Mat Towel

Mainly purchased this b/c I was attracted to the beautiful colors and design, but in person the colors are significantly more pastel/faded looking :/ . Also, I am confused as to why they would pick such slick feeling fabric/material - nice if you are gliding around, but otherwise not rly practical and unable to get any good grip (unless maybe you have sweaty palms and feet). Also the bottom does not have any nubs to help grip to the mat, this I don't care too much about, but can see if it is an important feature for others.I would have also preferred the backside to be some color, but it is white - wonder how this will look over time w/ use (if I continue to use it, which I am not sure about since it is very slick). Overall pretty underwhelmed, and wonder why it's so hard to find pretty yoga mat towels. This design has so much potential, it just needs to be executed differently.
