Inner Pile Towel
Voluminous but soft. Extremely Absorbent. A towel combining the best of gauze and pile. Beautiful design made using traditional craftsmanship.
Founded in Osaka, Japan in 1907, SHINTO Towel leverages their experience in textile manufacturing with Japanese beauty standards to create luxuriously soft towels that are absorbent as well as featuring a unique texture. This is achieved through their utilization of Atozarashi, a post-weave process that eliminates starch, oils, and any impurities from the fibers, leading to a wonderfully plush finish.
The Shinto INNER PILE Towel is skillfully created with a traditional shuttle loom and devoted care. Using only pure Organic Cotton, it has two outer layers of baby-soft gauze and a dense, inner layer of highly absorbent cotton pile. Despite being thick and plush, the towel is soft and feather-light, giving it a heavenly feel unlike any other towel. This makes it perfect for snuggling after a bath, drying off your pillow and bedding, or as a post-dryer hug.

Wash and dry them before use. Prefer to wash with similar colors. Avoid overusing fabric softeners as it may damage the fibers and reduce absorbency. Trumble try when available. it promotes and refreshes the cotton strands and fibers thus reestablishing the natural absorption and softness of the fibers themselves. Using a low-heat tumble dry cycle or a gentle tumble drying cycle is best. Pulling or snapping the towel lengthwise while wet can cause the piles (the loops in the toweling) to stretch, resulting in gaps in the material. Handle wet towels gently.
