Japanese Bath Towel

Woven in Imabari, Japan, Kontex cloths reflect generations of craftsmanship in the region synonymous with the finest towel-making in Japan. The Claire Bath Towel is dual-sided, soft to touch, highly absorbent, and quick-drying.

One side is woven gauze cotton and linen; the other is a soft organic cotton terry pile combining exceptional absorbency with softness and comfort. Each piece is slowly loomed using traditional techniques that preserve the softness and integrity of the fibres. After weaving, every Kontex towel is gently washed in melted snow flowing from the slopes of Mt. Ishizuchi to thoroughly remove contaminants from the cotton fibers without needing harsh chemicals.

Why You'll Love It:
Kontex has been weaving towels in Imabari since 1934, on traditional low-speed looms. The yarn is loosely twisted rather than tightly wound, which increases absorbency and means the towel becomes softer with every wash. Available in the creamy-beige shade of Almond.

98% cotton and 2% linen
