If you’re not sure whether to sit on a pad or a towel, we wrote a plain-language Sauna Bench Pad vs. Towel guide. Frequently Asked Questions Why cotton and not microfibre? Microfibre and polyester blends are common on cheaper bath towels, but synthetic fibres aren’t designed for repeated sauna heat. Cotton is a natural fibre that’s been used in sauna cultures for generations. Our towel is 100% cotton, nothing else. Why waffle weave instead of plush terry? Waffle has a raised, textured surface that lifts you off hard wood and gives the fabric air to dry between uses. It’s also lighter and easier to hang, wrap, and carry than an oversized plush towel. Is this big enough to lie on a sauna bench? At 80 × 145 cm (31.5 × 57 in), it’s sized to cover a standard sauna bench for a full-body lie-down, wrap around the body, or use as a sit towel. Can I use it in an infrared sauna or steam room? Yes. Cotton works in Finnish saunas, infrared saunas, and steam rooms. Will it shrink? Expect around 3–5% shrinkage after the first wash, which is normal for 100% cotton. We’ve sized it accordingly. How do I care for it? Machine wash cold, tumble dry low, or line dry on the hang loop. Skip the fabric softener.
