Ok, but ... [Posted on 2008-11-04]
The Pinzon Bath Towel appears to be well-made and is quite plush and soft. It is also quite large and looks rich and luxurious hanging on the towel rack.
Unfortunately, in terms of function - its ability to dry you after you shower or bathe - it is not significantly better than my Target-brand cheapies. Despite the towel's plushness, it is not as absorbent as you might expect based on it thickness and weight.
I thought that, perhaps, the manufacturer had treated the towel with fabric softener to make it feel soft to prospective buyers but which would also partially waterproof it. But after laundering (without fabric softener), I found little improvement in absorbency.
If your towel's appearance is important to you, these are fine and work reasonably well. If your considering it as a functional improvement over your current towel, I think you'll be disappointed.
the king of towels. [Posted on 2008-11-07]
well, to be honest i am not a big fan of these "Pinzon" products.
my experience with most their stuff has been.... not so good.
but this towel might have redeemed them.
you know that feeling when you go to a 5 start hotel or a spa and get out of a hot shower, grab the towel and you feel as if the towel is hugging you?
so soft, and warm, and nice?
so that's just what this one does.
soft.
thick - but not too much.
absorbent - you can be soaking wet coming out, it will take it all
the ultimate test is how many laundries its going to survive...
will update on that.
until then, enjoy your shower!
Like a Trip to the Spa [Posted on 2008-11-09]
These Towels are wonderful. They are so plush you feel like you are in a spa at the Ritz. What great quality at a very reasonable price. When I received it I was immediately impressed by the loft and density of the terry. I wish that my other towels weren't so new so I could buy more of these. You can't get a better value than these.

Very heavy. Soaks up water better than a sponge. Dries quickly. Wash before first use because I swear it's coated in wax. ;-) But once it was washed...well, you can pry it from my cold, dead hands. I've stayed at luxury resorts and I've never had a towel like this.
Very nice bath towel [Posted on 2008-11-13]
In all honesty I am no towel aficionado. That being said, I REALLY love this towel. I consider to myself to be of a rather average build (6 ft, athletic), yet it still seems some towels are just too small. This is not the case with this towel. It is very large and really dense. It easily wraps around me and covers most of my lower body
My wife loves the fact that after about 10 washes it remains extremely soft and has not started to get "bally" like so many other towels - in other words, all of the threads are staying in tact and it's like new.
The best thing that can be said is that this towel truly feels luxurious. Think of the best hotel towel you have ever used, and I am sure this will match if not beat it.
