IHG-066 - Black/Orange Large Imabari Towel
-
So, I have a few questions:
o Are these towels unsanforized?
o How much shrinkage should we expect with a luke warm hand wash, and air dry?
o Do they fade?
o I'm 175cm tall, and weight 75kg… Should I get small or large? (If it helps any, my Martha Stewart towels are mediums...)
o How long should I wait before washing (You know, so the creases will set in nicely)? -
Got one. Pleased.

That came unexprected early. I reconed with the usual 17:00 brit time and now I'm trapped with the workstation pile of junk in my office, that is nerfed back into the 80s by our IT guys, so I could not proceed from my basket to paying.
Thank god I didn't forget my smartphone at home.
Got 2! You know, you have to wash you towel from time to time and need a replacement or, god forbid, the wife want's one too.

How do you get these things to stop shedding? There was a bit of shedding out of the box and now even more after a wash.
Also, the sticker on the towel recommended to wash it at 40deg on the delicate cycle. Will washing them more aggressively somehow damage them?

@DrPat I asked the question when I was in Japan, they were sort of mystified. After me explaining a number of times, they suggested just wash more, the lint will stop shedding at some point. They think a hotter wash would be OK.
Thanks for looking into this.
I washed the towel 5 times. There is still some shedding but the amount has significantly decreased. Hopefully it will be gone after a few more washed.
