Clotho 4 Pack Gym Towels for Women and Men

A peshtemal (also known as peshtamal, pestamal or pestemal, derived from the Turkish word "pestamal") is a traditional Turkish towel that has been used in Turkish baths for centuries. It serves not only as a practical tool but also as a representation of regional identity, reflecting the deep cultural traditions of Turkey. The peshtemal comes in a variety of styles and colors, each reflecting the unique characteristics of different local areas within the country.

Peshtemals are highly versatile, absorbing water as quickly as a regular towel while drying much faster and taking up less space, making them an ideal alternative to traditional towels in bathrooms, pools, spas, beaches, sports facilities, and even for baby care. The fabric of most peshtemals is 100% cotton, produced on manually operated looms in Turkey.

Peshtemals are multi-purpose towels that can be used in a variety of settings, including bathrooms, gyms, kitchens, as small table covers, for yoga, and as travel towels. Compared to regular towels, peshtemals are thinner and more compact, yet they are actually larger in size than traditional towels.

The absorbency and quick-drying nature of peshtemals make them a popular choice, especially for those who enjoy working out. Even though they are larger than most traditional towels (measuring 20 x 40 inches), they take up much less space in your gym bag, and their eye-catching designs and ability to be tied make them a convenient and stylish option.

Caring for a peshtemal is a simple process. It is recommended to wash it before the first use, and thereafter, machine wash it in cold water. Adding a small amount of white distilled vinegar can help keep it extra fluffy. Air drying is the best method, but low heat can also be used. The more a peshtemal is washed, the softer and more absorbent it becomes.
