Specs & Special Care

Dimensions: 74" x 35"
Thread Gauge: Medium Weight
Fiber: 100% Turkish Cotton

All of our towels are woven from the highest quality, unprocessed Turkish cotton which requires a time of ‘loosening’ its unique flat weave of unprocessed fibers. It is through this process of breaking in or training of the long fibers that our towels become softer and more absorbent with each wash. The century old practice of creating this type of flat weave with an extra long fiber is what ensures the towels will last for decades, dry quickly, and be absorbent. It is also why the towels are so thin.

"The Training Of The Peshtemal Towel"
The loosening or "training" process requires a good soak in water for about 4-6 hours followed by a cold to warm wash and low tumble dry cycle. It is the soaking process that allows for the unprocessed threads to fully hydrate and plump up allowing for the initial absorbency of the towel. From this point, it will only get softer and more absorbent with each wash.
