| I agree that finding the perfect towel is like the Holy Grail. My favorites are several year old 100% cotton beach towels. They are thin, VERY, VERY soft, very absorbant and perfect for drying and polishing off wax. I search everywhere for the right towels and they are hard to find and come up in the most unlikely places. I live in St. Louis but last year was on vacation in North Carolina and wandered into a Piggly Wiggly grocery store and in the aisle where they have a few assorted non food items they had some tourist beach items and these PERFECT towels. I bought all they had in stock. The check out gal thought I was drunk. I wish they had more! I have not seen any as nice since. Usually they are a cotton blend or have too many colors dyed in that make them stiff.
It's unfortunate that microfiber towel manufacturing technology is so inconsistant. Grrr! |
