where do you get your outdoor towels? we need to get a bunch.

also, i'd really like to get a couple of hooded/drape ones for DS

i'm willing to spend a bit more if they are good quality & hold up

thanks

I got a couple from Lands End for ds about four years ago now. They get some use, but not tons as most of our swimming is at an indoor pool where they provide the towels. Our LE towels have held up very nicely.

Costco usually has some nice ones this time of year. FWIW I got DD a hooded towel from PBKs last year and it isn't very nice at all. The one I got DS at Target is nicer.

I really like The Big One's from Kohl's. Out of all the towels we've bought for our pool, these are my favorite.

I love the ones from Restoration Hardware. They are big and have nice designs.

We have some of these and are very happy with them.

I just saw them at Costco yesterday. I got DD a hooded one that looks like a strawberry.. super cute! She's about 38-39" and it fits her well; as in, it covers her up. They were Carter's brand and had animal shapes too.

I saw there were lots of beach towels and other kinds too if that doesn't work for you.

Our Tommy Hilfiger and Nautica beach towels have held up the best for the price overall for us. We also have towels from PBK, Lands End, Target and Company Kids, among others. DS and DD1 are on year round swim team and we live in Florida, so they get a ton of use. I have found them for great prices on amazon (on occasion; best prices at end of season), TJ Maxx, Marshalls and Homegoods. They are not always the thickest of towels, but they are large and the colors stay nice and bright notwithstanding repeated washings as well as exposure to sun/chlorine.
