Lands' End Premium Supima Cotton 2-Piece Washcloth Set

buying online can be tricky, texture and color. I bought 2 sets, sage and dark sand. Wow, they are better than expected. When I picked up the box I knew. Box was heavy, a sign of good quality weight. They are perfect! the color sage was right on the picture and dark sand is the perfect compliment. I washed first, came out fluffy and they are thick. I am very happy with this purchase

These towels are very soft and fluffy enough. However, due to all of the complaints about shedding, I checked the tag which said to WASH them in COLD and DELICATE! What? That is not good hygiene! And on top of that, DRY on DELICATE. The directions sound like what I would use for a dressy shirt. I did wash them the first time like that and I did not have any fluff come off in the washer or when used after showering. There was a fair amount in the lint vent which I empty after each wash, but that is pretty normal with new cotton fabric items washed the first time. Since then, I have washed them in warm and delicate and they seem okay so far. When I dry them on delicate, it does take a long time to dry. I don't think I have the patience to continue babying these towels so I hope they last. If I had known the washing directions, which were NOT SITE WHEN I ORDERED them, I would not have bought them.
