I ADORE THESE!
After using a friend's towel that has this texture I had to get some for myself. It gives such a nice scrub to the skin and slurps the water off you so much faster than a smooth towel! And the texture helps hide little stains. Plus it's just cute. I like the aqua here, it is not too bright but not too pale. Just like in the pics. The texture provides enough visual interest but the edge provides a little extra beauty with a diagonal stripe texture. Subtle but pretty. I got a few different towels at the same time as I'm very indecisive and I regretted a few of the ones with more pattern. Just looks so busy once the whole set is there in the bathroom with the soap and shower curtain and everything... IMO a plain towel set is the most tasteful. But the textures of these strike the perfect balance, being simple but still beautiful. Also, some of the more elaborate, "luxurious" towel sets I got, it looks goofy if I try to use the hand towel in the kitchen, but these look appropriate anywhere. It doesn't scream "bathroom towel". You could take it to the beach or gym and your pals won't giggle. Really the perfect towels. My only complaint is the lint. I washed them a half dozen times to get that signature amazon stink out before use, but even so, the first time I dried off I was horrified to find myself coated in fuzz. I didn't notice how bad it was until I started applying lotion and that made the lint form into a trillion little balls. Not cool. I especially don't like lint in a hand towel as my hands will transfer lint to food I am prepping, or my contact lenses- I expect my hands to be clean after I wash and dry them. After a few weeks of use I would estimate they've been washed ten times now and the lintiness is finally almost gone. ALMOST. So I am guessing it takes at least a dozen washes/dries to get them low-lint. On the bright side, they seem very sturdy so if you want to launder them until you get all the lint off before you start using them, they won't be worn out by then. I like them so well I plan on getting a few more sets. Read more
