🧺 Simpli-Magic 78966-100PK Red Shop Towels 14”x12” - 100 Pack Review

Great deal for the price. They are very oddly shaped (not square at all) and puffy, but the seam quality isn't very good. If you're looking for a screen printed promotional item (I have) you might want slightly better quality, but if you want an affordable store label this is a good buy. They shrink when heated.

I ordered these towels to use as cleaning clothes at my fitness center. I ordered them in red so they don't get mixed up with other cloths and are only for cleaning. These towels bleed horribly and are still bleeding after multiple washes. I would NOT recommend if you want towels that don't bleed or stain other items they are washed with.

I have been working on cars and motorcycles for 6 decades. These cloths are some of the best I've used to clean dirt, grease, and grime off parts. They leave no lint or pills behind. The surface is a relatively firm, dense weave that works much better than the soft, loosely woven towels I've bought from Griots. They are durable and of great value. These are mechanic's rags, not for painted or machined surfaces.

I know there are a lot of reviews that are easy to tear and just awful to get. As soon as I received them the day after I bought them, I opened the bag and they had a smell (I bought the red ones) but not a bad smell, just an assembly line smell. I threw them in the washing machine and nothing broke. I dried them with no problems. Reviews they should rip should be people with rough or messed up washers.

These shop towels arrived quickly, were beautifully packaged and are exactly what I expect from shop towels: thick enough to clean or dry items in my shop. The only complaint is that they smell like solvent. The smell is overwhelming. I even washed them before use and they still smell of solvent. Ultimately, that's not a problem since these are store towels, but the chemical smell is really disappointing: I can see how it can make asthma and migraine sufferers cough or get a headache. Heads up.

DO NOT WASH ONLY except in darker colors. I bought them for tornado relief in (East) Nashville, Tennessee, and I washed them all a few times (they had an odd smell *think: sweaty patchouli*). into a cool box (filled with ice water, tinted with lavender oil ☺️) to cool down, rinse off/wipe off sweat/demonstration debris. They worked SO well! People were so thankful to have a clean "washcloth" to dry off before dinner or during a short break. BUT, don't wash them with anything you don't want to…

WASH ONLY WITH OTHER WASHES than darker colours.
