The Abyss Super Pile is regarded as one of the finest cotton towels available anywhere in the world. In an independent study the Super Pile was tested "Best." The Super Pile was tested
alongside a minimum of five other luxury brand towels. The towels were tested in "white" and "persimmon" colours. After 50 washings, the Abyss towel proved to be:
The only towel that withstood all the washings without signs of falling apart.
To be the most colour fast.
To become denser and more absorbent with washing.
To be 20% more absorbent than the next best towel.
Abyss always employs 100% Giza 70 Egyptian Cotton in all three weaving directions (warp, weft and pile). It is exceedingly rare for a towel to use pure Egyptian Cotton, let-alone in all facets
of the towel. More weight is placed in the pile than in the towel base, allowing the towel to dry better than other towels of the same weight. As the base is also crafted from 100% Giza 70 Egyptian Cotton, it is
also very strong and durable.

Wash and dry at medium temperatures. Drying hot will greatly reduce the life of the towel. Do not overdry. Do not bleach or use any detergent containing bleach. Always wash towels by themselves without
other fabrics!
Using a specialty detergent
such as the wonderful L'amour® Towel Wash® is always a good investment. This product does not contain
bleach, caustics, phosphates, is pH neutral and biodegradable.

I have purchased Abyss towels for years and I am always pleased with them. They do snag a little bit easier than some other towels, which is why I'm not rating them 5 stars. They are so thick that by trimming the occasional snag it is never an actual problem, just a nit-picky thing. I am very satisfied with Mattress & Sleep Companies service. Much friendlier than my local designer store.
