Review on Clotho Classic Turkish Peshtemal Lightweight by Tina Waters

Description is a bit misleading. The increased size is not true. This is a regular Turkish towel. It will probably be an inch (if so) larger than the towel I bought in Turkey. The biggest complaint is the softness. These types of Turkish towels are amazing in their absorbency and thinness, but they are usually quite soft as well. I've washed this clotho about 3 times and it's still a little rough. There are other places to buy Turkish towels that are generally better. If you've never had one you'll probably be fine, but if you've had one you'll be disappointed. I agree. Maybe the roughness is right for a beach towel, but the size isn't. (NOTE: I am American and have reviewed this article regarding what is expected of American beach towels.)
