“100% cotton” is the starting point.

Cotton percentage tells you what the towel textile is made from. It does not tell you how thick, absorbent, quick-drying or durable the towel will feel. Construction and weight—often listed as GSM—help explain those differences.

What to compare

Weight

Higher GSM often means a denser towel; lower GSM can feel lighter and dry faster.

Construction

Loop style, weave and finishing can affect texture and absorbency even at the same fiber percentage.

Certifications

GOTS, OEKO-TEX, Fair Trade and Made Safe address different parts of the product or process.

Unit price

Check whether the listed price is for one towel, a set, or a particular size.

The Material First rule

We separate what is stated from what is assumed. A material percentage is recorded as a fact; softness, absorbency and durability remain product characteristics to compare.
