Royal Blue & Sea Green Turkish Towel

What are Turkish towels and why are they special?

Turkish towels, also known as Peshtemals, are made from premium Turkish cotton, known for its long, durable fibers that create an ultra-soft, absorbent, and quick-drying towel. Unlike traditional terry towels, Turkish towels are lightweight, breathable, and get softer with every wash. They have been used for centuries in Turkish hammams (baths) and are now loved worldwide for their luxury, versatility, and stylish design.

Are Turkish towels better than regular cotton towels?

Yes! Here’s why:

• Absorbent but lightweight – They soak up water effectively without feeling heavy.
• Quick-drying – They dry faster than traditional towels, reducing dampness and musty smells.
• Softens over time – The more you wash them, the softer and more absorbent they become.
• Space-saving – Thin yet absorbent, they take up less room in your bathroom or beach bag.
• Versatile – They double as a beach towel, bath towel, sarong, picnic blanket, or even a throw.

Are Turkish towels good for both the beach and the bathroom?

Absolutely! Turkish towels are perfect for both the bathroom and the beach.

• In the bathroom, they absorb water quickly and dry faster, keeping them fresh and mildew-free.
• At the beach, they are sand-resistant, meaning you won’t bring half the beach home with you. Plus, they fold up small, making them easy to pack.

How quickly do Turkish towels dry?

One of the biggest advantages of Turkish towels is their fast-drying nature. Unlike thick, fluffy towels that trap moisture, Turkish cotton allows air to flow through, helping them dry up to three times faster than traditional towels. This makes them perfect for humid climates and busy households.

How do I care for Turkish towels?

Turkish towels are easy to care for and get better with age:

• Wash in cold or warm water with a mild detergent.
• Avoid fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce absorbency.
• Tumble dry on low heat or air dry for best results.
• If your towel has handwoven tassels, wash on a gentle cycle to keep them intact.

How are Turkish towels made?

Authentic Turkish towels are traditionally loom-woven in Turkey using high-quality, long-staple cotton fibers. Some towels, like stonewashed or tie-dye styles, undergo special treatments for unique textures and designs. Many premium Turkish towels, including ours, are OEKO-TEX® certified, meaning they are free from harmful chemicals and safe for you and the environment.
