Does anybody even know if they exist? I`m looking for 100% pure cotton, made in the USA wash cloths, without the dobby border. I emailed Sal Zaino and he named several places that have them but they don`t. I have found cloths made from 100% Supima cotton, which is grown and processed ONLY in the USA but they are still imported from Pakistan, India, and Turkey. I`ve exhausted my online search. does anybody have any ideas?

I`ve got some of the towels and I really, really like them. The ones I have are the "older" version I believe. Autopia used to carry them, not sure if they still do or not?
They`re a bit pricey, but I think you`ll like them. Here`s a link to some discussion on these towels

I was looking through my cotton towel collection (for car care) and most of the towels I bought at sears & JC penny are USA made. A handful I purchased from target and those are made in Pakistan. Not a big MF fan so I pick up 100% cotton terry towels when I find them on the cheap at those dept stores - and no i never use the auto zone or pep boys cotton towels...ok maybe 5-10 for the engine compartment.

The DF towels are nice, I`m not sure that you can`t find something as nice in a good bath or department store, but I`m not sure they will be any cheaper, either. If you want the DF towels, I`d order them from Pakshak to avoid the customer service problems some of us have encountered ordering from DF directly.

Oye! I ordered some towels 5 weeks ago online and haven`t seen or heard anything. They don`t reply to my emails or return my phone calls. I`m about to dispute the charges on my credit card.
Is this the customer service problem you were talking about? I can wait for a good product.... but over a month w/o any update on the shipment? Hard to take. :down
