Dogs love Deck Towel
When not in action poolside or at the beach, our Coen towel makes a great dog bed.

“Memorial Day weekend wasn’t kidding this year when it decided to kick off the summer season. Hello 90 degree heat + sticky humidity. I think I officially missed the first thing about my old place – the pool. I definitely could have used it this weekend. When I finally do get out to the pool, I think I’m feeling vintage pool wear…

Best Stuff of the Year 2010
Turns out that working with
a bunch of style obsessives and discerning tech-geeks has its perks. We
asked, they delivered: From the coolest set of wheels on the market to a
flat-screen slimmer than an iPhone, it’s everything a man could want.

Deck Towel Linen Beach Blankets
The problem with beach towels is that even the best of them turn into a
rank, sand-filled mess after a day at the beach. That’s why we dig this
linen version from Deck Towel. Sewn from durable, colorful fabric that
could’ve been swiped from a French girl in Biarritz, they’re light,
quick to dry, and odor-resistant. The other draw? Should a bikinied
stranger need a place to rest her feet, these are plenty big enough for
two.

LAY OUT
Deck Towel
What:
Handmade Italian linens are big enough for a full
spread-eagle sprawl. Pick from faded stripes or saturated solids
evocative of the lazy summer we plan to have.
Why:
It might be Buck (recent Columbia grad who makes them) or the thought of
an evening spent listening to cicadas, but there’s just something
romantic about soft linen and warm months.

Hall Ready
Pfips, Enzo, and Coen towels featured on Hall Ready blog. Their post does a nice job of showing how linen towels can be used “off-season” as throws, bedspreads, and tablecloths.
