Care & Maintenance

Washing Instructions

Machine wash warm, max 104℉（40℃）.

Do not use bleaching agents. Avoid fluorescent brighteners and chlorine bleach as these chemicals do not remove stains but rather bleach and damage the natural cotton fibers, making them prone to shedding/pilling.

Gentle detergent recommended. We recommend using a mild, neutral detergent that is kind to the natural fibers and the environment, especially since towels touch the skin directly.

Prevent snags and looping by putting towels inside a laundry net (mesh bag), especially if washing them with items that have zippers, hooks, or Velcro, which can snag the delicate loops (piles). If a loop is snagged or pulled out, cut the protruding loop with scissors immediately. Do not pull it, as this can cause the unraveling to spread.

Regarding Fabric Softeners

Fabric softeners are known for enhancing the texture and making towels feel softer. However, softeners work by coating the surface of the cotton fibers with an oily residue. This coating may temporarily reduce the superior absorbency that the SHUTTLE 1963 is known for.

Rest assured, using fabric softener will not damage the product, however to ensure you can enjoy the towel's characteristic high absorbency over the longest possible period, we recommend limiting the use of fabric softeners in your regular wash.

If you notice your towel has become stiff after years of use, you might consider using just a small amount of softener as a periodic treatment.

Drying Instructions

Tumble dry on low heat. With our fine, long-staple cotton, we generally do not recommend using washing dryers to prevent shrinkage and linting. However if  you prefer using dryers, tumble dry on low heat.

Line/Air drying for fluffiness. After washing, shake the towel vigorously (snap it) a few times in the air with both hands. This helps to stand the fibers up and promotes a fluffy, comfortable texture. Straighten the shape by gently pulling the edges into alignment. Line dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area (as per label).

Do not iron.
A Towel to Gift, to Treasure, and to Admire

Created in collaboration with textile artist YU MEI HUANG, the Two Dots bath towel brings artful design into your days. A thoughtful gift for loved ones—or a special treat for yourself.

MEI’s signature use of gentle, harmonious colors and playful, organic shapes makes this towel as lovely to display as it is to use. At SANTOKU, we chose the Brick colorway for its warm, earthy tones and bold composition, bringing a welcoming touch of color and personality to any space.

Made from 100% Samarkandaria cotton, selected for its long, strong fibers, this towel offers a feel that is both soft and substantial. Only the finest fibers are selected and carefully spun into yarn.

Crafted in Imabari, Japan, the towel is designed to retain its plushness even after repeated washing, making it easy to care for and a pleasure to use every day.
