What customers say
Customers consistently praise the Cairo towel for its exceptional quality and luxurious comfort. Reviewers frequently highlight the impressive softness and substantial weight, noting that the towels maintain their plushness and absorbency even after numerous washes.

Know before you buy
A weight of 625 gsm (grams per square meter) places this towel in the 'medium-heavy' category. It offers a substantial, plush feel that is highly absorbent without being so heavy that it takes an impractical amount of time to dry.
Long-staple cotton is prized for its durability and smooth texture. Because the individual fibers are longer, there are fewer exposed ends to break and pill, meaning this towel will maintain its soft hand-feel even after repeated washings.
The piped scallop edge is primarily a design detail, but it also provides a reinforced finish to the border. While it adds a refined aesthetic, it is constructed to withstand standard machine washing just as well as a traditional straight hem.
Yes, the built-in hanging loop is securely integrated into the towel's construction. It is designed to support the weight of the towel when damp, allowing for better airflow and faster drying between uses.
To maintain maximum absorbency, avoid using fabric softeners, which can leave a waxy residue on the cotton fibers. We recommend washing in warm water and tumble drying on a low setting to keep the terry loops fluffy.
