A Japanese cotton-linen waffle bath towel from Imabari in muted navy, from the Kontex Vintage Waffle range. At 78 × 145 cm it gives generous coverage for a full body wrap without the bulk of a traditional bath sheet, drying much faster than heavy terry and hanging neatly on a standard rail.

The Kontex Vintage Waffle Towel combines the sophistication of expertly woven fibres with the comfort of lived-in textiles. Threads of cotton and linen intertwine into small plaits, creating a subtle mesh pattern of refined elegance. The compact design makes these towels highly absorbent, quick-drying and lightweight, and the intricately braided weaving gives them a handcrafted sensibility.

Also available in steel. Looking for something smaller? See the Vintage Waffle Hand Towel in navy.

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.

Kontex

Kontex Towels have been making towels using century old techniques since their founding in 1934. Their towels are crafted in the famous Imabari towel region of Japan. Each Japanese towel is respectively woven on traditional low-speed looms using high quality threads, and washed with fresh spring water that Mt. Ishizuchi provides from melted snow. As a result their range of towels are incredibly absorbent, fast drying, durable, and environmentally friendly – an ideal addition to your bathroom or kitchen.
