“In comparison with Christy's discontinued 'Royal Turkish' towels, these are disappointing. The pile doesn't feel quite as soft or luxurious, and those wretched stripes are dreadful. They feel as if someone had glued strips of sandpaper across the towel - they're hard, they're harsh against the skin, and they don't dry anything at all. I've asked Christy if they'll be resurrecting their Royal Turkish range, but was told 'No, they won't'. So - sadly, no more Christy towels for us.”
