Wrap yourself in luxury

the types of fiber, construction and feel are myriad when it comes to bath towels. MicroCotton bath towels feature a unique structure of the yarn giving towels a suede-like texture that becomes softer with washing.  Made from 100% plush long-staple cotton, MicroCotton towels get their soft touch from a patented spinning process so the towels feel fluffy and extra-soft. Their porous texture also lends itself to absorbent and drying easily. 520093215746c__1

The lighter-weight of the textiles make large MicroCotton towels lighter than others their size, and the cotton weave is also durable and long-lasting and so that it holds colors and does not fade after multiple washings.  MicroCotton towels are available from many retailers, such as Wamsutta Perfect Soft MicroCotton Bath Towels ($14.99 at Bed, Bath and Beyond), Noble Excellence MicroCotton Bath Towels ($34.00 at Dillard’s) and Hotel Collection Bath Towels MicroCotton Collection ($31.00 at Macy’s).
