Know before you buy
While standard towels often rely on thick, heavy loops, the Lana towel uses a unique chambray and terry weave. It feels more like a soft, lightweight blanket than a traditional fluffy towel, offering a cashmere-like softness without the bulk.
At 14.2" by 33.2", this is technically a hand or guest towel size. It is best suited for drying your hands or face rather than wrapping around your body after a shower.
Not at all. Despite its delicate feel, the 100% cotton construction is highly absorbent and designed to wick moisture away from the skin efficiently. Its thinner profile also allows it to air-dry much faster than heavy, high-pile towels.
To keep the fibers soft and absorbent, machine wash the towel in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the cotton fibers and reduce the towel's natural ability to absorb water.
The Lana collection is woven in Imabari, Japan, a region world-renowned for its centuries-old towel-making traditions and high-quality textile production.
