The Linen Towel – the perfect summer beach towel, gym towel and bath towel

We are just loving our latest discovery, The Linen Towel. It is simply the best quality summer towel we could find. Classy in the bathroom, lightweight and quick drying for the gym and not a sand hogger at the beach it is a high-performance all-rounder.

Unlike cotton hammam towels our pure Irish linen towels do not feel wet and cling after use and they dry out really quickly. Able to hold up to 20% of its weight in water without feeling wet, The Linen Towel can also be used as a comfortable wrap, even after you have dried yourself off.

The Linen Towel is made from the finest quality 100% pure Irish linen that is naturally anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and hypo-allergenic. Some people prefer a fluffy towel but we have been taken in by the superior powers of linen. As contact lens users it is great to dry our hands off with a lint free towel, safe in the knowledge our hands are not holding on to small pieces of towel fibre.

We have been using these towels for a couple of months and the more we wash them, the softer they become. Easy to take care of, wash up to 60 degrees and hang out to dry. They can be ironed to make them crisp for the bathroom but we quite like the rustic charm of their natural state. We use them as bath towels, beach towels, gym towels and will be throwing them in our suitcases when we head off on our travels as they take up hardly any room.
