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 think they would be fine. They do get soft but I own embroidered towels that are pretty soft with age and they are just great.

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!

No, they don't bleed through! I never had them do that on me even on notebook or computer paper.

I have not had this problem, with these towels, but I have with dish towels. Try a splash of vinegar in your washing machine.

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

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.

to the best our knowledge they are. THis is why we bought them, tho i can't say i know a lot about the standards applied and certifications checked! It matters to us because of the cultivation of cotton can be so toxic. They are nice towels though, we were pleased. At first they didn't seem to soak up as much water but when we washed them they were nicer and did. Maybethere was some sizing on them! not sure but they felt nice right away. I hope that helps!

The write up with them says they are.I haven't bleached them yet, but they are great; absorbent and nice feeling, no that stiff thing that some others have. I use them for gym towels because they're a good size and i won't have a coronary if I leave one behind. :)

Yes Kevin! I've been using them since December 13 and I've washed my car, and sometimes my wife's SUV, every single weekend with fail. And thus far the towels still look and work great....like new. Although I might add that it's probably because I only use these towels for the body of the vehicle...ie I use different towels (old beat-up & 100% cotton) my rims & tires.

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 bought the rainbow colored maya wrap and I washed it quite a few times. It never bled color on the rest of the laundry load.

Yes they do have different softness. The chose-a-size is different. I had to buy the chose-a-size because that's all they had, and even my husband said something about them. We use them for everything from blowing your nose to cleaning up messes. I have bought Viva for 20+ years and I thought they had changed them until I realized they were two different towels.

I really an't help you. Mine has never gotten wet lucily so I don't know if it bleeds or not. Sorry!

Hello! At this moment we do not. We do have single color 6 packs of just Red, Green or Blue if you'd like to get a specific color vs a multiple color pack! You can see them here http://www.amazon.com/Kitchen-Towels-Vintage-Absorbent-Natural/dp/B00JQL8WCC/ref=sr_1_4?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1431619769&sr=1-4&keywords=kitchen+towels

I bought them for their absorbency and workhorse quality. For show? Perhaps if they were freshly washed. I don't do much for show so can't really comment.

My wife washed one of ours with my white shirts, all of my shirts have a green tint to them. Since then we have bought 3 more, I washed all three before we used them. I've never had any after washing bleed into any of my clothes.
