“Think Globally and Act Locally.” Cotton made in Africa is a project that promotes the sustainable cultivation of African cotton to sell in products bearing the project’s name. Funded in part by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the goal of the project is to increase the income of African cotton farmers thereby increasing the overall quality of life for themselves and their children. The purchase of this 2ply ringspun, 30x58" bath towel in white, directly contributes to poverty reduction of more than 265,000 African farmers by creating sustainable trade rather than one time profit maximization. Additionally, these towels are manufactured in the USA by 1888 Mills, a leading textile manufacturer committed to environmental and social sustainability.

I'm fussy about towels. I like them to stay dry and not get that slick, wet feeling that you get even with many high end towels.
These towels meet my criteria for soft and really absorbent and my husband really likes them also.
Plus they are made in the US, using African cotton, so that's a plus as far as I am concerned.
I would like a better color selection, but I just order the neutral colors and have really, really liked them.

I loved these towels when I first got them - especially since they supported sustainable cotton farming in Africa.
I started using the towels a couple of weeks after I purchased them. I used only 3 of the towels of the 4 towels and after only a few uses, started discovering orange spots on them. I washed them and they didn't come out - seems like a problem with the material. I took the 4th towel and made sure it only came in contact with clean water to see what would happen. The orange started showing up on that one as well.
There is clearly something wrong with the material of this towel to cause the orange stain. This has not happened to any of my other towels - new and old. All of the reviews have been great on this product so I'm not sure what happened with my towels - perhaps a bad batch.

I liked the look and customer reviews on these towels, so I ordered a set of 8 for our every day use. I am very pleased with the towels all the way around. I purposely waited a few weeks to write this review so I could put them through standard "wear and tear" scenarios. After three weeks in rotation, the towels are just as soft and absorbent as the first use. They are wearing nicely (no matting, pilling or fraying at all). They are a good size too, not huge like a bath sheet, but will wrap all the way around an average size adult, no problem. Overall, a great buy.

I looked and looked and could only find two sources for towels made in the USA. How sad. Because these towels also are part of a project to help cotton farmers in Africa I decided to buy them. I was so pleased with the quality. No more towels from India or China for me.

This is the best towel I ever got. Previously I loved the Pinzon bamboo, but this is more absorbent, and larger. A wonderful towel.
