Lobster Creek Combed Cotton Towels 550 GSM - White

GSM stands for grams per square meter and is a measure of towel density. A 550 GSM rating indicates a thick, plush, and highly absorbent towel. This density contributes to a luxurious feel and excellent drying capabilities.

Combed cotton is cotton that has been treated to remove shorter fibers and impurities through a special combing process. This results in longer, stronger, and smoother cotton fibers, making the towels significantly softer, more durable, and more absorbent than standard cotton towels.

Wash your towels at 40°C. For white towels, wash with similar light colors. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on medium heat if needed. Do not dry clean. Always ensure to wash dark or bright colors separately if you have other variants.

While fabric softener can initially make towels feel softer, overuse can build up on cotton fibers, reducing their absorbency over time. We recommend using fabric softener sparingly or opting for white vinegar in the rinse cycle as a natural softener and residue remover.

Yes, being made from 100% combed cotton, these towels are naturally soft and gentle. Combed cotton's smoother fibers are less likely to irritate sensitive skin. Always wash new towels before first use to remove any manufacturing residues.

The Lobster Creek Combed Cotton Towel range includes several sizes to meet various needs: Face Cloths (30x30cm), Hand Towels (50x85cm), Bath Towels (70x125cm), and Bath Sheets (90x140cm).

To maintain the brightness of your white towels, avoid washing them with colored items that might bleed dye. Always wash at 40°C and refrain from using bleach, which can yellow white fabrics over time. Consider using a laundry booster designed for whites if needed.

This can be caused by detergent buildup or over-drying. Use less detergent, consider adding a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle occasionally, and ensure you tumble dry on low heat, removing towels promptly when dry.

Initial linting is common with new towels, especially high-quality combed cotton. Wash new towels separately for the first few washes. Ensure your dryer's lint trap is clean before each cycle.

Excessive use of fabric softener can coat cotton fibers, reducing absorbency. Try washing your towels without softener for a few cycles, or add half a cup of white vinegar to the wash cycle instead of softener to strip residue and restore absorbency.

Ensure you are washing at the recommended temperature (40°C) and avoiding harsh chemicals or vigorous scrubbing directly on the embroidery. Air drying or low heat tumble drying is best for preserving intricate details.
