Long Staple Cotton Towels – Bath, Hand and Square Towel Set in 12 Colours

These long staple cotton towels come as a set of bath, hand and square towels, spun from 32-strand yarn and finished with a ribbed border of raised stripes across each end. The supplier's sizes are 70 × 137 cm for the bath towel, 70 × 33 cm for the hand towel and 33 × 33 cm for the square towel. Easy Life Markets sells the set in twelve colours, from white and grey to wine red, yellow and orange.

Long staple cotton is the selling point here. Longer cotton fibres spin into a smoother, stronger yarn, which generally means softer towels that shed less and keep their loops longer. The ribbed border, with several raised bands across each towel, gives the set a classic look. The supplier's photos show each colour as a tall, neat stack of six towels on a white or bathroom background.

What Is in the Box

This needs a clear explanation, because the supplier's information does not quite agree with itself.

The specification describes a three-piece set: one square towel, one hand towel and one bath towel.
The listing has two set options, "3times" and "6times". Ten colours are offered as "3times" and two colours, Light Blue and Orange, as "6times". We read these as three-piece and six-piece sets.
Every supplier photo shows a stack of six: two bath towels, two hand towels and two square towels.

So for the ten "3times" colours, expect three towels, not the six in the photos. For Light Blue and Orange, the "6times" option suggests six. Please contact us before ordering and we will confirm the count for your colour.

A Straight Answer on the Details

Piece count. See the box section above. The photos show six towels, and most options appear to be three.
Colours in the photos. The supplier's photos include a grey, royal blue, navy, beige, light blue, white, pale pink, wine red, yellow, lilac and a dusty teal, plus a peach-orange stack. We cannot match every photo to an option name with certainty. "Purple" is likely the lilac, and no photo clearly shows the Coffee colour.
"Absorbent". Cotton towels absorb water well. No figures are given.
Long staple. The supplier does not say which cotton variety or what fibre length, so "long staple" is its description. It is not a certified grade.
Not stated: Towel weight, cotton percentage and care instructions.

What "32 Strands" Tells You

Strand or count numbers describe how fine a yarn is. The higher the number, the finer the thread. For towels, yarn of around 16 to 21 count makes a chunky, very absorbent loop, while 32 count gives a finer, softer loop with a smoother feel. Finer yarn on its own does not make a towel thicker or more absorbent. That depends on how many loops are woven in and how heavy the towel is, which the supplier does not state.

Looking After Cotton Towels

Wash before use. New towels often have a coating that makes them feel soft but slightly water-repellent.
Wash strong colours such as wine red, dark blue, orange and yellow on their own for the first few washes.
Wash at 40 °C for colours, and up to 60 °C for white if the label allows.
Do not overload the drum, and use less detergent than for clothes.
Use fabric softener rarely. It coats the loops and reduces absorbency.
Tumble dry on medium, or line dry and give the towels a good shake to soften them.
Snip pulled loops level with the pile instead of pulling them out.

Keeping Towels Soft for Longer

Towels go hard for a few predictable reasons: detergent and softener build-up, hard water, and drying on a hot radiator. Long staple yarn resists this better than short fibres, but it still helps to wash with a little less detergent, add an extra rinse now and then, and dry the towels with movement, either in a tumble dryer or on a line in a breeze. If a towel has already gone stiff, a hot wash with a cup of white vinegar instead of detergent usually strips the residue and brings back the soft feel. Avoid drying towels flat on a heated rail for days at a time, as the loops bake flat.

Who It Suits

Shoppers who care about yarn quality and like a classic ribbed border, households wanting a strong colour such as wine red or orange, and anyone putting together a towel gift.
