Several reviews say these towels bleed, but many more sing their praises and don't mention it. Do some colors tend to bleed more than others?

I have experienced no problems whatsoever with the SportLite Rat Towel. Great product. Mine is blue.

I have the orange, the blue, the lime and the other green one, none of them have bleed so maybe it's the way they washed them, I haven't had any trouble at all

I have a lime-colored towel and did not have any bleeding issues. It's a great product.

I have 6 hand/face and 2 beach all blue. They all have bled, learned the hard way one day.

I'm not sure but I would guess it is the thread count. I know that these are very nice towels.

Yes, the towels are as think as the washcloths. Both are nice. The towels aren't so super-thick so that they don't absorb. But not so thin that they won't dry you off.

I wouldn't let the 5% discrepancy throw you. They are excellent towels and outstanding value. They are just as good quality as any high end towels that sell for twice as much.

They do have a lot of lint.......haven't found a towel that doesn't.....the Egyptian cotton is the best towels I have found and these specific ones are just great......I now have six and plan to order more. I think the amount of lint will diminish with each washing.....but think you will always have lint from them. Hope this is helpful.....I would suggest you try a couple (they come in twos) and I believe you will be very happy with them.

Hello Auntie Ane's Attic, Currently we do not have these towels available in any other colors. We have looked into adding other colors. Which colors would you like to see us carry? Thank you for your question Stephen Founder, GCC

I believe that the bath towels are as thick if not thicker than the washcloths. No matter how many times we have washed them, they remain soft and plush.

And I don't find that they bleed as one said especially on the medium you are using.

Hello~ I would assume so, but I am not an expert. I will say that I love these towels, have ordered several, and have been thinking about ordering a couple more. Hope that helps!

Yes, easy to wash and dries extremely quickly, BUT for some of them, the colors bleed, so you definitely want to wash them separately. The pink one is fantastic color-wise, but oh, does it bleed. The green and brown bleed the least. Pink and blue and yellow bleed the worst.

Yes. I run them in the delicate cycle. I love these towels. They're super light weight and although they feel really wet after drying yourself off, they dry out really fast when you hang them.

This color bleeds less than manic panic does. Shades like red bleed more than the blues and greens. I blowdry my hair after the first few washes, but after that it doesnt bleed!

The towels are finished on all four sides. They are not as soft as diapers but when fabric softener is used they are soft. The fabric is woven with tiny raised lines on it which is why they would not be as soft as you say diapers are. I have green ones that are used in the kitchen for wiping counters and blue ones that are used elsewhere for cleaning. I wash them in very hot water which has not caused them to fade at all. This fabric has lots of lint so be sure to wash and dry the towels before using them.

In the past I wrote a review. I ordered these towels about a year ago and they were more than marvelous. Because of this I ordered more of them for my daughter and daughter-in-laws for Mother's Day this past May. I ordered the SAME towels from the SAME company and they were awful. They were very crinckly. Unless they've changed back to the original towels, It would be difficult to embroider on them.

Hi Sandra! The answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!! Read my review and you will see in detail what my experience is! I read reviews that said they sloughed off in the washer like 3 times and had a lot of lint in the dryer. All I can tell you is that after the first wash, there was NO string or residue in the washer and the lint filter in the dryer was an even bigger surprise--hardly any at all!!! They came out of the dryer all big and fluffy--gorgeous white towels! The quality is evident in the look of them. I bought two for myself and two to give as gifts (all are being monogrammed now!!) for 2 friends I am meeting in Rome in February 2014. We are going to a huge spa and I thought such beautiful towels would be a nice gift. I think both guys will like them a lot!! I can only tell you my experience with them--I don't know about anyone else. All I can say is they are WORTH the money!!!!!

not that i have noticed, the thing about these towels is that they are not the thick, fluffy, soft towels you may be thinking. They are scary fast at getting you dry and that is the thing I really love about them.

mine is generally up against the headboard or the couch, which is microfiber, and the color has never bled out. Doesn't seem the type of material that this would ever be a concern.
