Meet the Maker: Kontex

Established in 1934 in the famous towel-making capital of Imabari, Japan, Kontex has spent nearly a century perfecting the art of the Japanese towel. While modern manufacturing prioritizes speed, Kontex remains dedicated to a slow-weaving process. By using traditional low-speed shuttle looms, they avoid the high-tension stress of modern machines, resulting in a fabric that is exceptionally soft, durable, and highly absorbent.
