with the waffle weave microfiber towel.. threw out my chamois a long time ago.. havent seen noticeable differences between the different ones sold via folks and vendors on this board..
The one thing to consider is the size of the towel, dont get them to big or they tend to drag or hit the ground a little too often.. the one little thing I did like on a Griots Garage towel I bought, was the pockets sewn in on each end creating a place to put your hand while drying.. this is a personal preference item.. I also have some from JTinternational w/o the pockets and like them too..
