How do Wetcat towels compare to the other big-name brand?

Information needed when someone compares Wetcat to Sand Cloud or Teema

Updated yesterday

Think of it like apples vs. oranges—both Turkish towels, just different styles.

They use a thicker jacquard weave, while ours 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").

Our centuries-old flat weave absorbs quickly, dries fast, and shakes off sand. We’re also OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified—you can verify our certificate number on the OEKO-TEX site. If you’re after the authentic, travel-friendly Turkish towel, ours might be the better fit.
