Hyrdocotton is a barely absorbant polyblend
PostedJune 13, 2021

Bought two towels from local store to test. Washed them before using. These did not absorb much, if any, water after my shower. Natural organic cotton absorbs water very well and requires almost no effort to dry yourself. From what I can tell, these are likely some type of polyblend, made with inorganic plastic threads weaved with cotton threads. I'm not sure how they get away with the “100% cotton” label, but it’s not accurate.
As someone who actually knows what real 100% cotton looks like, feels like and costs, this “Turkish" cotton is not equitable to American Pima or Egyptian cotton. Usually, I can tell by the way it feels. Unfortunately, I found most stores are now selling “Turkish” or “Agean” cotton towels and they are all the same polyblend as the Nordstrom Hydrocotton. It’s very, very hard to enjoy polyblend when you are used to 100% Egyptian cotton.
You’ll notice a great deal of fibers left in your washing machine the first time you wash your towels. A large percentage of these fibers are likely micro-plastics that wash down the drain, make their way to the ocean and into the seafood ecosystem. Eventually, we eat the micro plastics when we eat the seafood. Polyblends are a really terrible solution to the economic realities of inflation and profit-making. I hate that Nordstrom has chosen to sell these towels. Life is hard enough without polyblends. My recommendation is not to buy them and find real 100% cotton towels instead.
I bought these during anniversary sale in the grey vapor. Also had the problem with fading and blotches. The towels though are very big and comfortable. Plan to purchase again just white next time.

I Love These Towels
PostedMay 27, 2021
These are my favorite towels. They are soft and fluffy but not too heavy. They dry well, hold up beautifully through years of washing and drying. They feel luxurious and they work. I would love to see more colors.

the softest towel in the world

I would consider myself very picky when it comes to towels and bed sheets. I travel around a lot and have tried a lot of towels! These towels are THE BEST!! Even my guests at my house make comments on their plush comfy softness ! We wash them with bleach too and they are still amazing and soft!!!
