“It’s the best beach towel I’ve ever owned, for sure.”
“Sewn from durable, colorful fabric that could’ve been swiped from a French girl in Biarritz, they’re light, quick to dry, and odor-resistant.”
“This new line of linen towels manages to improve on the already perfect concept of sunbathing.”
Are they really absorbant?
They are. Even the thinnest linen can hold up to 20 times its weight in water, and dries much more quickly than a terry cloth towel.
What can I do with my towels when I’m not on the beach?
Decoration and warmth. We use ours as bath towels, bedspreads, picnic blankets, throws, tablecloths, and shower curtains.
How do I wash my towels?
Simply hand wash, or machine wash with non-chlorine detergent and like colors. Line dry, or tumble dry on lowest heat. Adding a tablespoon or two of hair conditioner to the wash helps keep linen fibers soft and strong.
Deck Towel makes the original linen beach towel in New York City. Sewn from European linens, they're light, strong, and compact. Unlike bulky cotton towels, our towels repel sand, hold twenty times their weight in water, and dry in a snap. At 70 x 57”, a Deck Towel is sized to accommodate two sunbathers but folds to the size of your beach read. When it gets colder, it becomes your favorite bath towel, bedspread, picnic blanket, tablecloth, or shower curtain. Read more about the benefits of linen towels.
Our first collection was inspired by a 1930s photograph of five Belgian soldiers bathing in the Meuse River, by imagining the sort of materials and patterns they might have used to dry off. Read more about our collections in the press.
