Reasons why you should get a Peshtemal

“A Peshtemal towel is lighter”

Say goodbye to the standard heavyweight cotton towel and bring in the hard competition. Peshtemal weighs considerably less than the usual towel. If you’ve tried to cram a towel into your gym bag or your suitcase, you know it’s not easy. These handwoven gems fold up so easily, leaving you ample space for all your other bits. Travel light when you’re on the go and take them on your next weekend away, to the beach or on a picnic. At home they look gorgeous rolled up and stored in natural boxes or on shelves where they look great as a focal point in the bathroom. So they are perfect for your trips, travellings, inside suitcase and on your shelves.

“Feel the softness”

Giving into a hot, relaxing bath is one of life’s simple pleasures. Finishing your bath off by bundling up in a soft, cozy towel is another. Peshtemal towels are made %100 cotton. Feel natural cotton. Peshtemal gets better with age. Each wash releases the starch from the cotton and relaxes the yarn which means they get softer and better with use. Compare that to a standard towel that gets rougher, tired and worn over time and you’ve got a pretty good reason to ditch the terry towel for good.

“Super absorbent, quick dry”

The soft cotton is lightweight and super absorbent, making them dry much more quickly than a traditional cotton terry towel. They dry out completely in a short amount of time so no more mildewy-smelling towels!

“%100 Cotton”

Sometimes called Peshtemal, Hammam or Fouta towels–are made from Turkish Cotton, a premium cotton that has extra long fibers. Using longer fiber cotton means fewer joins, which results in stronger and smoother cotton threads. Because of this unique material, Turkish towels are known to become even softer, fluffier, and more absorbent with successive washings.

“Made in Turkey”

Turkey, is known for producing some of the highest quality cotton products in the world and the towels are as absorbent as traditional towels but take up less room and dry very quickly.

“Colorful, stylish towels”

They often come in bright colors as well as more muted tones, and are extremely versatile for bath and beach, even as a scarf, sarong, or a summer throw. They make the perfect pool towel, Yoga, Gym, Sport but you can also use them as scarfs, wraps, or even as tablecloths. Dress up a rustic wooden table with a Peshtemal for those al fresco summer evening suppers or use it as a blanket on long car journey’s. Whatever you do, you’ll find our Peshtemals are so practical and versatile. Use them as a scarf or wrap to keep out the evening chill, or use as a super absorbent sarong after a dip in the pool.
