For these striped towels, soft, GOTS-certified cotton is combed, spun into fine yarn (Nm 24/2) and woven into voluminous (real) terry towelling. With an average basis weight of 480 and 550 g/sqm, the towels are pleasant to the touch and highly absorbent. The front and back of the terry towels are in different colors - one in pastel shades, the other in stronger colors. The stripes are jacquard woven, not printed, which makes the colors more durable.

Real terry towelling is a three-thread woven loop weave (warp, weft and loop), which is much bulkier and more absorbent than the two-thread (warp and weft only) terry towelling, which is only similar to terry. As opinions differ on towels and we want to cater for those who like soft towels as well as those who appreciate rougher fabrics, we offer terry towels in different qualities in our range: from soft and fluffy to voluminous and yet grainy to the touch to a hard-wearing linen-cotton quality (our linen terry), which you will rarely find today.

We specify the yarn count in Nm (metric number), whereby the higher the number, the finer the yarn. A yarn count of Nm 100 means that 100 meters of yarn weigh 1 gram. An additional number is added if the yarn is twisted from several single yarns, for example Nm 100/3 for a yarn made from three single yarns.
