A Peshtemal is a traditional Turkish towel. Made of woven cotton. Instead of being plush like a terry towel, peshtemals are thin.
I like them because:
- They dry fast. They stay fresh longer.
- They pack small & light.
- They look nice.
- They’re multi-purpose – throw, sarong, table cloth, beach blanket.
- Durable
- Economical
I made a video detailing my thoughts on these towels.
