Imabari Waffle Towels
Lightweight, incredibly soft, and quick to dry, say hello to your new can’t-live-without staples. Loomed with an oversized waffle construction, these waffle towels are more breathable and absorbent than your run-of-the-mill versions. Designed in five fresh hues and finished with a refined, flat-edge border, they’re as handsome as they are functional.
Each towel is made with long-staple Pima cotton and loomed in the oldest, family-run mill in Imabari that has spent 100 years perfecting the art of towel making. From weaving to dyeing and washing, each step is done in a fair trade environment.
Note: Each set includes two towels – two face towels / washcloths, two hand towels, or two bath towels.

Fair Trade. Guaranteed. 100% of our products are made with a process guaranteed by the World Fair Trade Organization.
These cotton towels can be machine washed on cold with like colors. Tumble dry on low. Do not bleach.
After washing, the waffle weave will deepen and shrink a bit, developing a more organic character over time. We recommend hanging on a rack instead of hooks – the hooks will stretch out the weave over time.

Definitely worth the wait
I waited months for these! The indigo color is beautiful. The towels don’t feel too rough and are indeed fast drying. They shrunk a tiny bit in the dryer so I would suggest low/air drying.

Great absorbent and quick-drying towels!
I love how these look and feel especially how well they dry you off after a shower and then dry themselves before the subsequent use.

Great towel
Best towel I own, for sure.

Great quality and design
These towels are luxurious, oversized, and efficient. They dry fast, stay clean for a long time, and look amazing.
The Citizenry
Thanks for taking the time to review these beauts! And glad to hear that they live up to both style and function! Sincerely, The Citizenry Team

Good but . . .
These are high-quality towels but they are considerably bulkier and stiffer than I expected, based on our other Imabari bath towels, which are from Kontex.

The perfect towel
Weight, texture, absorbency, quality.. perfect! I’m happy with my purchase and will be ordering more
