Tip of the day: why do some towels have stripes?
The stripes on the towels may have an aesthetic purpose, but there is a very specific reason why these lines have been added.
There is a wide range of towels on the market. They come in all colors, sizes and materials. Some are softer than others, while others are more absorbent.
These strips are an old-fashioned way to get an idea of how long your towels will last. These strips are known as reinforcing strips.
