Know before you buy
The block rib weave offers a more structured, tactile texture than traditional terry loops. It feels substantial and refined to the touch, providing a sophisticated aesthetic while maintaining excellent absorbency.
At 160 GSM, these are lightweight, quick-drying towels. They are designed for everyday convenience and efficient drying, making them ideal for frequent use in a busy bathroom.
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification ensures that the cotton is grown without harmful chemicals and that the entire production process meets strict environmental and social criteria. It guarantees you are receiving a genuinely organic and ethically produced textile.
To preserve the integrity of the organic cotton, we recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers and reduce the towel's natural absorbency over time.
As with most high-quality natural cotton textiles, you may notice a very slight shrinkage after the first wash. Following the care instructions and avoiding high-heat tumble drying will help maintain the original dimensions of 20" x 31".
