What is the purpose of the fabric bands on bath towels?

Some buying tips:
Opt for towels with these fabric bands, especially if you want them to stay soft and intact longer.
Check the quality of the cotton: the thicker it is (higher GSM), the more durable and absorbent the towel will be.
Wash them before first use to maximize absorption.
Conclusion: A small detail that makes all the difference
These fabric bands, often unnoticed, actually play a key role in the longevity of our bath towels. They prevent premature wear and make maintenance easier.
Next time you buy a towel, keep this in mind—you’ll make a smarter and more durable choice.
