Description
Our Hebden towels are woven from 100% cotton in a textured waffle weave, and that surface is the reason to choose them. The small raised cells you can see across the cloth open the towel up, giving it more air and more edge to work against your skin. Being pure cotton, they are naturally absorbent and take up water readily, while the honeycomb structure gives a lighter, quicker-drying towel than a dense pile. The colour here is a warm stone, a soft oatmeal cream with a natural undertone rather than a stark white, so it settles easily into a room without drawing the eye.
These suit a bathroom that leans relaxed and natural, sitting comfortably alongside wooden fittings, pale plaster walls and greenery, as the range photograph shows. The waffle weave has a slightly more textured, tactile hand than a plush terry towel, which makes it a good choice if you like a towel that grips and exfoliates a little as you dry, or one that hangs neatly over a rail or hook without looking bulky. The stone shade is forgiving day to day and works with almost any tile or paint you already have.
The towel comes in four sizes, from 50 x 100cm up to 100 x 180cm, so you can pick a hand towel, a bath towel or a full bath sheet, or mix them for a set. Cotton washes well and stands up to regular laundering, and a waffle weave tends to feel softer and more open the more it is washed. To style them, keep to the natural, earthy palette the cloth belongs to, folded on a bench or hung in pairs, and let the texture do the work.

Frequently Asked
What sizes do these towels come in?
There are four sizes, from a 50 x 100cm hand towel through to a 100 x 180cm bath sheet, so you can build a matched set or buy singly.
What is a waffle weave and how does it feel?
A waffle weave has a raised honeycomb texture rather than a soft pile, giving a lighter, more tactile towel that grips the skin and dries the air more freely.
Are these towels absorbent?
They are woven from 100% cotton, which is naturally absorbent and takes up water readily, and the open waffle structure helps the cloth breathe as it works.
What colour is Stone?
Stone is a warm oatmeal cream with a soft natural undertone, closer to a pale sand than a bright white, so it blends easily with neutral bathrooms.
What are they made from?
They are 100% cotton throughout, a pure natural fibre that launders well and tends to feel softer and more open with each wash.
