Full details

Crafted from high-quality Pima cotton, it provides exceptional absorbency and an incredibly soft texture that remains gentle against the skin. While it offers superior comfort and density, users should note that the heavier 650gsm construction requires more time to dry completely between uses compared to lighter-weight towels.

FAQs
What does 650gsm mean?
GSM stands for grams per square meter. A 650gsm rating indicates a dense, high-quality towel that is heavier and more absorbent than standard weight towels.
Can I bleach this towel?
No, bleach will damage the delicate Pima cotton fibers and alter the brown color. Use mild detergents instead.
Is this towel machine washable?
Yes, it is fully machine washable. Follow the care instructions on the label to maintain the soft texture.
Why shouldn't I use fabric softener?
Fabric softeners coat the fibers in a thin layer of chemicals that prevent the cotton from absorbing water effectively.
Will the color fade?
Pima cotton holds dye very well, but washing in hot water or exposing the towel to harsh chemicals can cause premature fading.
Troubleshooting
Towel feels less absorbent after several washes
Wash with a small amount of white vinegar instead of fabric softener to remove residue buildup.
Excessive lint during the first few washes
This is normal for high-density cotton. Shake the towel out after drying and clear the dryer lint trap consistently.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Pima bath towel, wash it separately or with similar colors before the first use to remove any loose lint from the manufacturing process. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can leave a waxy buildup on the cotton fibers, significantly reducing the towel's absorbency over time. For drying, a tumble dry on a medium setting is recommended to help fluff the fibers, though air drying is an excellent alternative to maintain the natural integrity of the cotton. Always ensure the towel is completely dry before folding to store in your linen closet.
