Nes, Pola, Jeff, and Pooh go on an adventure
in this "Gentle Towel" featuring the
30th ANNIVERSARY design.
The "Gentle Towel" is a triple-weave towel featuring double gauze and pile, boasting exceptional absorbency.

- It feels soft against the skin.
- It has high absorbency.
- It never looks worn out.
- It's easy to wash.
- It dries quickly.
- It features a design you'll always want to carry with you.
It was born from these six concepts.

The pile yarn undergoes a special process called LA treatment,
which shapes the cotton's cell walls to retain their form.
No matter how many times you wash and dry it,
the fabric maintains its fluffiness and firmness at the cellular level,
so it retains that fresh-out-of-the-package softness for a long time.

It comes in two sizes: a hand towel and a shower towel.
The hand towel is a custom size tailored to Shigesato Itoi's hand.
Back then, when deciding on the size,
we cut bath towels into various sizes,
and Itoi and his crew actually used them to test them out.
The one we liked best was
a 29cm square.
While a 30cm square might have been a neater, cleaner cut, this slightly off-standard 29cm square proved to be the best choice: it feels comfortable all day long, absorbs plenty of moisture, fits perfectly in a pocket, and is easy to carry.
The shower towel is the standard sports towel size,
long enough that even a tall man can wear it around his neck without it looking awkward.
Measuring 126 x 35.5 cm, it offers plenty of surface area,
s so many people use it as a substitute for a bath towel.

[Important Information]
Due to its triple-layer weave structure-one side double gauze and the other pile-
this towel is thinner and lighter than towels with pile on both sides.
Since the three layers are connected by a thread called a bonding thread,
there are small, evenly spaced indentations on the gauze side.
When you first start using it, fine fibers may come off the towel and stick to your face or body.
There may be some slight color bleeding when you first start using it.
Do not wash with white items.
Because it has undergone a special treatment to make the pile fibers fluffy and lustrous,
the loops are prone to snagging.
Do not wash with clothing that has buttons or zippers.
If a pile thread comes loose,
please cut it off at the base with scissors.
To prevent color bleeding,
do not use "chlorine bleach" or "optical brighteners" when washing.
To maintain absorbency,
please do not use fabric softener.
The towel will shrink slightly after washing and drying.
Shrinkage is particularly significant when dried in a dryer.
