Handling tips for your towel

General

Appropriate cares, washing and drying will maintain the texture and superior absorbency of your SHINTO TOWEL, and also make it environmentally low-impact. Especially heat, such as washing with high water temperature and tumble drying, will make the cotton fibres shrink and get hard in touch.

Wash

  • Wash at lower temperature (up to 40 degrees) to prevent damage to the cotton fibres causing shrink, reduction of softness, and color fading.

  • Do not use chlorine bleach, and avoid the overuse of fabric softeners as these will damage the cotton fibres and spoil their absorbency.

  • Avoid washing colored towels and white towels together to prevent color transfer, especially for the first several times.

Dry

  • Set the spinning speed low, around 800 rpm, to reduce friction and prevent from changing shape and wearing off.

  • Stretch and flap the towel gently before drying to maintain its shape and fluffiness when dried.

  • For best results, washed towels should be hung to dry in a shady, well-ventilated area.

  • Our towels are woven loosely and comparatively low-density, so they dry quick even without tumble drying.

  • Set to low heat or gentle setting when tumble drying is needed.

Maintain

  • Do not snip pilling of the gauze; pull and stretch the whole towel to put the pilling back to its original state.

  • Avoid pulling on pilling of the terry pile; snip carefully with a pair of scissors.
