Towels
Cotton and linen towels for absorbent, reusable drying without polyester microfiber.
The fiber and weave determine how a towel absorbs water and dries between uses. We favor natural fabrics without added antimicrobial finishes, and value independent textile testing. Lightweight linen and plush cotton terry offer different levels of absorbency and bulk, making the right choice partly a matter of your bathroom and laundry routine.
