GETAWAY — Softness & Solidarity
Softness is a right.
Not a perk. Not a privilege.
A right.
For so many people, especially immigrants, refugees, and displaced families, life demands toughness. It’s survival mode, 24/7. Grit and hustle and adaptation. Safety is earned, not assumed. Rest is rare.
Güven knows that life.
He moved to America at 30 with determination and heart, chasing a future he hadn’t fully imagined yet.
He built it. For himself. For us. For our kids.
When we dreamed up this collection, we wanted the towels to feel like exhale. Like a deep breath after the storm.
And more than that, we wanted to say something with them:
That rest is not selfish.
That safety is not a bonus.
That softness, in body and spirit, should be accessible to everyone.
In our home, we’re constantly blending cultures.
We speak a mashup of Turkish and English. We swap börek for PB&J. We play Turkish pop and Fleetwood Mac in the same playlist.
We make space for both sides. And in doing that, we soften the borders inside our own house.
This idea of softness and solidarity is why we’re giving a percentage of every GETAWAY purchase to the ILRC—an immigrant justice nonprofit doing the hard, legal, life-saving work every day.
Because towels shouldn’t just wrap bodies.
They should carry stories.
And this one?
It’s wrapped in grit, hope, and a whole lot of softness.
