Bath Towel NZ - Buying Guide
Size Matters
When choosing your every day bath towel, it’s a good idea to check the size before purchasing.
Bath towels generally come in a standard size of 68cm x 137cm (ours are more generous at 75cm x 145cm) whereas a bath sheet is bathing luxury on a grand scale. Our Bath Sheet towel is 90cm x 165cm, offering a super generous size for those who are taller or prefer to wrap up in the ultimate luxury.
So when it comes to bath sheet vs bath towel, size does matter, especially when considering washing and drying, having enough space in your linen cupboard for spare towels and choosing towels the right size to fit on your heated towel rail.
Colour Choice
Bath towels come in a rainbow of colours. When it comes to choosing the colour of your bath towels, we recommend considering the following points.
Do you want your towels to match your bathroom decor?
Is there a colour that you love and simply must have?
Do you want a different colour for every family member to make towels easily identifiable?
Do you want a mix of colours that you change with the seasons?
From white, charcoal and blue to green, natural and more, there are towel colours available to suit everyone in your home. Make sure to carefully follow washing instructions on the care label, especially if you choose darker colours.
Plush or Plain?
Bath towels are made in different weaves which offer different textures. From plain woven to textured waffle designs and loop pile towels, there are many options to choose from. Choosing a towel that you like the look and feel of is a good place to start. Then consider what you will use the towel for, eg: is it your everyday bath towel, is it for guests to use or is it for a trip to the seaside? For maximum softness and absorbency, we would recommend a plush loop pile bath towel, specifically designed for daily bathing. Whereas a plain weave cotton turkish towel is a lighter weight towel, perfect for drying off quickly after a swim at the beach.
