I have to admit, I got these because I love black and white. But these blew me away! These towels are incredibly soft and last forever! I’ve washed them several times and they still feel so soft. One suggestion though: make sure when you get them in the mail you wash them before using them after a shower. They left a black furry residue on my skin after my shower, but once I washed them they didn’t have anymore residue! But all together, these are so soft and worth it! And I love the sleek black look too!
