Default Where do you guys buy the cannon or fieldcrest towels that Zaino recommends?

Hi all,

I am looking for high quality fieldcrest or cannon towels that Zaino recomments, I am having a swirling problem with other 100% cotton made in USA towels.. I am told that I should stick only the high quality towels, and ones at kmart (even by those MFGs are lower quality)...

So where can I get them? I went to linens and things but they didn't have those brands...

Any others that you guys use that do not cause any light scratching or swirls?

-Bill

Here in Denver, I get them at Bed, Bath & Beyond or Linen & Things.

What do you guys look for? I was lost in there.. Feel like my wife in a parts store!!

Is there a model name for each? I was only looking for Cannon or Field crest... all I saw there was likr royal velvet, nautica, and summer time etc..

royal velvet is a version of the cannon - fieldcrest - charisma line. it all gets confusing. :confused: the easiest way is to go to the yahoo store - there is a cannon fieldcrest outlet. http://store.yahoo.com/fieldcrestcannonoutlet sometimes they have irregulars - i.e. not store like in appearance that are cheaper. these are often colors other than white though, which can apparently lead to streaking. I haven't noticed a difference though. :seeya

I've been buying mine from KLO (Kevin Overall), the TN Zaino distributor. I have a bunch of the Charismas from him. He trims the edging, cuts them to requested size, full, half or quarter and resews them with cotton thread. The priice for the Charismas, $18, is less than the full towel at local Bed and Bath stores. You can post for him or send him an e-mail. koverall@cddn.com

I used to get mine from Bed Bath and Beyond, now they come from Kevin (KLO) although there seems to be several Kevin's here now. :eek: :eek:

Fieldcrest Charisma are the best towels you can get in the Fieldcrest/Cannon line up. I have made many for Carl and Kevin V. I made two last night for another customer and I will be doing two more tonight.
