Choosing the Right Towel Material
Lower GSM: 300-400
Like to keep things quick and easy? Lower GSM towels are lightweight and quick-drying, making them a practical choice for busy family bathrooms, gym bags or guest bedrooms.
Medium GSM: 400-600
Looking for a happy middle ground? Medium GSM towels offer a balance between lightweight, quick-drying towels and thicker, more substantial styles. They give you that cosy, absorbent feel you want after a shower without taking ages to dry on the radiator or in the tumble dryer.
Higher GSM: 600-900
Love a thick, fluffy towel? Higher GSM towels are heavier and more substantial, offering excellent absorbency and a wonderfully plush, premium feel. They’re perfect for bringing that relaxing, spa-like comfort to your bathroom (especially after an everything shower).
Which Towel Size Do I Need?
From face cloths and hand towels to larger bath sheets, find the right size to suit your bathroom and daily routine. Bath towels are an everyday essential, while larger bath sheets are ideal if you prefer more room to wrap up in. The choice comes down to the size and feel you like best.
What To Look For In A Towel
