I agree with the other comments about the Lateralus print, but on closer inspection of the ones shown on the website, they unfortunately appear to be going for that weathered/rustic look… also, anyone with serious tea towel experience knows that it takes many many washes for the starches to break down and have them start being usefully absorbant. The 40 yesr old cotton ones i inherited from my grandmother are our best. Im sure these will come good in a decade or two.
