What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise this Turkish towel for its exceptional quick drying and compact design, making it ideal for travel and beach use. Its lightweight nature saves significant space in bags. Reviewers value its versatility, often using the stylishly woven towel as a sarong or light throw, extending its utility beyond simple drying. While some new users initially question the thinness compared to terry cloth, experienced users confirm absorbency improves significantly after washing. This thinness is key to its rapid drying performance. Despite a slightly higher initial cost, the superior performance, durability, and multi-functional nature establish this towel as an excellent, highly satisfying investment.
Know before you buy
The addition of linen gives this towel a slightly more textured, crisp feel initially compared to plush cotton. Because it is a 50/50 blend, it remains soft against the skin while offering superior durability and a faster drying time.
Yes. The artisanal weaving process ensures that the fibers relax and become increasingly soft and absorbent with every wash cycle.
At 37 x 73 inches, it is generously sized to serve as a comfortable beach mat for one person or a stylish wrap, though it is primarily designed as a bath and beach towel.
To maintain the integrity of the traditional weave, we recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the towel's natural absorbency over time.
The pattern is woven directly into the fabric rather than printed on top, which helps the design remain vibrant and resistant to fading through regular use and laundering.
