We’ve sung the praises of Fouta (aka Turkish towels, Peshtemal, or Hammam) before. They’re lightweight and thin, which makes them great for folding and storing, but still pretty absorptive. If they’re authentic, the cotton gets softer with every wash. They come in a bunch of shades, perfect for adding a pop of color to any space that needs it.
They’re a little tough to get used to fully drying yourself off with one of these guys after a shower or bath (versus a fluffier towel), but I think we can all get behind using the smaller versions as dish or hand towels. The only drawback there, in my opinion, has been how expensive they can be. Well, not anymore.
