How large are Turkish towels compared to standard towels?

Most standard bath towels measure approximately 27" x 52".

Our Turkish towels measure approximately 35" x 70", offering significantly more coverage and versatility while remaining lightweight and easy to pack.

What is a Turkish Towel?

Turkish towels (also called pestemals, hammams, or foutas) are flat-woven towels traditionally made in Türkiye. Ours are woven on antique shuttle looms using premium Turkish cotton and generations of textile knowledge passed down through Güven's family.

Unlike conventional terry towels, Turkish towels are lightweight, highly absorbent, quick-drying, and designed to last for years of daily use.


What makes Together Textiles different?

We believe textiles should be made to be used, shared, repaired, gifted, and loved for years.

Our products are woven in small batches using traditional techniques on antique looms in Türkiye. We prioritize natural fibers, thoughtful design, and timeless functionality over trends and disposability.

Movement is natural. Borders are not.

Why Turkish cotton?

Turkish cotton is known for its extra-long fibers, which create stronger, smoother yarns with fewer joins. The result is a fabric that becomes softer over time while maintaining its durability.

The climate and growing conditions in Türkiye make it one of the world's most respected sources for premium cotton.


Do you offer private label production?

Select private label projects are available.

Because we prioritize relationship-based collaborations and small-batch production, we only take on a limited number of projects each year.

How do I care for my Turkish towel?

Machine wash cold and hang dry when possible.

Like all natural cotton products, our towels soften and become more absorbent with use. To preserve the integrity of the fibers and minimize shrinkage, avoid high heat.

How do I care for my cotton tee?

Machine wash cold and hang dry.

Our tees are made from 100% cotton and are designed to develop character with wear. Expect the fabric to soften and drape beautifully over time. We recommend avoiding the dryer to preserve fit, structure, and longevity.


When will my order ship?

Most orders ship within 3–5 business days.

During launches, holidays, or small-batch preorders, shipping timelines may be longer. Current fulfillment timelines will always be listed on the product page.
