The Abyss Super Pile is regarded as one of the finest cotton towels available anywhere in the world. An independent institute in the USA found Super Pile to test "Best." Abyss Super Pile was tested alongside a minimum of five other luxury brand towels. The towels were tested in "white" and "persimmon" colours. After 50 wash cycles, the Abyss towel proved to be:

The only towel which withstood 50 wash cycles without signs of falling apart.
To be the most colourfast.
To become denser and more absorbent with washing.
To be 20% more absorbent than the next best towel.

Abyss towels are made of pure 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.

The pile of the towel is made of a double twist. This provides much greater strength, lower lint and superior absorbency. This also means if pulls or snags should occur, you can simply snip them off. This will not affect the towel.

The Mattress & Sleep Company tries its best to keep inventory in approximately 10 of the most popular colours in the 3 most common sizes (face, hand and bath towels). Please see the Delivery & Lead Times tab for more details.

Would you like a generously sized towel that is larger than a typical bath towel? Consider a pool towel! They're a little bit smaller than a bath sheet (about 5 feet in length, versus 6 feet for a bath sheet).
