Makes me (almost) look forward to mornings October 2, 2007

A friend of mine recommended these towels, saying that she can't bring herself to use any of her old towels now that she has these. After feeling how soft they are, I had to get some for myself! And, let me say, they are far superior to any towel I've ever owned--and for a really amazing price. I've often bought the Polo bath sheets, and they do not even compare to these Pinzon ones, plus they cost lots more!
The towels are so soft and luxurious--they almost make me want to get up in the morning just so I can have my shower and wrap myself in the super softness! Plus, the bath towel is a great size--it's actually fairly large for a "towel"--it's really about the size of what other brands call a bath "sheet."
I know towels aren't a particularly glamorous gift, but I'm definitely going to be giving some of these Pinzon towels as Christmas gifts. My friends and family will enjoy the luxury as much as I do! Also, I notice there is a matching robe, so I might pick up a couple of those too.
Soft as cashmere, but better August 1, 2007

These are the softest towels I've owned. They seem to absorb water well and dry quickly too. They feel like cashmere and are just as luxurious. So far, they've washed well and come out of the dryer fluffy and unwrinkled. I will be recommending these to family and friends.
Addressing "concerns" about this towel.... April 10, 2008

I agree with all those who love these towels! They are soft and silky. After the first wash they felt a little weird when drying, hard to explain, but they get better with each wash. Since most reviewers are thrilled with the quality and feel, I am going to address my experience about some of the "concerns".
First, I purchased the white bath size towels. They seem more of a cream than a white so maybe I got the wrong color. I have not had any shedding or pilling with these towels, even after the first wash. After use, my towels have always been dry by the next day.
My biggest concern was the surprise info when the towels arrived that they needed to be washed with cold water, and dried on low. If I can't wash my towels in hot water and dry with heat, I don't want them. So I decided to do it anyway to see what would happen in the event I wanted to order more. I have washed my towels 4 times now, all with HOT water, and dried on regular. I have NOT noticed ANY problems. The towels are still super soft and if they shrank it was too minimal to notice. Since I've used regular drying heat, my towels have dried in one cycle.
I don't know how a "hot" wash will effect the colored towels, but I'm ordering a set and about to find out. Maybe my disregard for the care instructions will come back to bite me later (will they wear out faster?), but at this point I'm expecting them to last a nice, long time.
I agree, they don't stay wrapped around hair, or around a body. But they're too luxurious for me to care.
I also have bamboo/cotton dishtowels with instructions to wash in cold, dry on low and not to use chlorine bleach. My dishtowels MUST be bleachable and washable in HOT water! I have been doing this with these dishtowels for several months with no obvious problems. (Maybe this will destroy the natural antibacterial feature of the bamboo?)
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
Luxurious without being too much towel July 31, 2007

I absolutely love this towel. It is soft and wonderful without being cumbersome. This towel is plush and super absorbent at the right price. Like the previous post this towel washed up great. I think it is time for another set! It is a luxory you didn't know you were missing until you try this towel.

First and foremost, we LOVE these towels so far. They arrived the other day and when I got home my wife was already raving about them (and she hadn't even washed them). They were silky soft, plush , thick and heavy. These were nicer than any towel we had previously purchased.
We have since washed them and begun to use them. We followed the cold wash directions and had no issues. Not even any pilling. The towels appear to be extremely well made. They are just as silky soft and boy are they ABSORBENT! They wicked the water off extremely quickly. I was surprised they didn't feel very wet afterward either.
We purchased the PALM color (and relied on the individual towel picture and color palette rather than the picture of all the towels together). The towels match the MOSSY green color of the palette (not the lighter group picture) as well as the deeper green individual towel photo of the 4 choices you can view for that color in the palette. It was the exact color we were looking to get. So much out there is minty color.
From our standpoint we see no care issues (follow the instructions) and we are willing to dry them on low if that is what it takes to avoid damage. For the person who commented on the time to dry on low, make sure your dryer vent is clean as well as the machine. Lint in there can be a major time issue as well as a safety hazard.
These are not thin, light towels. They are substantive and HEAVY. The bath sheet is about 3 POUNDS! My wife is already asking for more in other color(s) for other bathrooms in the house. I can't disagree with her. They are terrific from what we have seen so far.
