Clean up Your act
Your current
towel is gross
Yeah, we said it. Towels that stay damp for hours are a breeding ground for bacteria. In fact, research suggests that 90% of bathroom towels contain coliform bacteriaāand 14% are contaminated with E. coli.
Our signature Waffle Towelās open weave dries so quickly, germs and bacteria donāt stand a chance. And the 100% SupimaĀ® cotton fabric is up to 45% stronger than your current towel. The result is a fresher, cleaner towel that lasts.
Ā Is there anything our towels donāt have? Maybe a space in your linen closet.
How does your towel stack up?
Average cotton towel
Germs and bacteria stinkāliterally! Odor-causing microbes multiply on fabric that stays wet, leading to nasty smells, acne, and infections.
Onsen Waffle Towel
Shower at night, dry by morning. Towels that dry completely between uses have almost no chance of harboring bacteria.
With maximum surface area for increased air circulation, our original open weave fabric rapidly dries itself, for a towel thatās cleaner and fresher, longer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Want to know more?
What does Onsen mean?
An Onsen (ęø©ę³) is a Japanese hot spring and the bathing facilities and inns frequently situated around them. As a volcanically active country, Japan has thousands of onsens.
What is SupimaĀ® cotton?
SupimaĀ® cotton is a 100% USA-grown cotton with an extra-long staple fiber, making it one of the finest cottons in the world. Its fibers are 50% longer than those of other cottons, and can be spun into an extremely strong, durable yarn that gets softer with use. Learn more about the SupimaĀ® trademark here.
Do your Waffle Towels really dry lightning fast?
Yes! The honeycomb pockets of the open waffle weave provide greater surface area for improved air flow through the fabric, meaning faster drying times, even in humid climates.
How do I care for my towels?
We recommend washing your towels in cold water on a gentle cycle every 3-4 days. Tumble dry on low with wool dryer balls. Avoid using fabric softeners and conditions, which coat the cotton fibers and minimize their natural ability to absorb moisture.
