It's hard to compare our Sultan weave to their towels. Think of it like apples vs. oranges—both Turkish towels, just different styles.
They use a thicker jacquard weave, while our Sultan are woven on traditional dobby looms in the classic peshtemal style. That makes Wetcat towels thinner, lighter (≈ 10.5 oz vs. ≈ 14 oz) and more compact yet actually larger when laid flat (38" × 71" vs. 35" × 68").
We also started offering jacquard woven towels. There are three big main difference:
All of our jacquard woven Turkish towel collection comes with sewn edges meaning they don't have tassels.
We maintain our cotton quality and consistency by buying it from the same source, it's 100% Turkish cotton no mixing.
Our towels go through regular 3rd party testing ensuring they meet OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 standards. We're certified and you can verify our certificate number on the OEKO-TEX site. Every Wetcat Turkish towel carries the prestigious OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification.
Our products are rigorously tested and verified free from over 300 harmful substances
