Know before you buy
The waffle-weave texture increases the surface area of the fabric, which significantly improves absorbency compared to flat-weave towels. It also creates a lightweight structure that allows for better airflow, helping the towels dry much faster between uses.
These towels are stonewashed during production to pre-shrink the fabric and soften the fibers. They are designed to maintain their shape and structural integrity through repeated machine washings.
These are lightweight towels. While they are highly absorbent due to the cotton waffle weave, they lack the bulk of a heavy terry cloth towel, making them easy to handle and quick to dry.
To maintain their softness and absorbency, machine wash them in cold or warm water with like colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can leave a coating on the cotton fibers that reduces the towel's ability to absorb moisture.
Yes, the stonewashed cotton is gentle on surfaces. The waffle texture is effective at picking up moisture without leaving behind the lint often associated with traditional terry cloth towels.
