We tested 98 hand towels in our testing lab and in the real world to find the best ones. We also consulted experts to find out what to look for when shopping for hand towels.
The best bath towels are durable, soft, and absorbent. We tested 99 bath towels over a span of several months, evaluating them on texture, absorbency, and durability. We also spoke with textile experts and dermatologists.
