Those clean, decorative bands at the ends of many towels? They’re called dobby borders, and they’re not just there to look pretty. These bands are woven more tightly to:

  • Add strength to the towel’s edges
  • Prevent unraveling
  • Keep the towel looking neat and structured
  • Think of them as a protective frame for the entire towel.

Final Thoughts: There’s More to Towels Than Meets the Eye

The next time you grab a towel after a shower, take a moment to notice the design. The lines, patterns, and borders are all intentional—and they do more than you might expect. They help your towel absorb better, last longer, and stay looking great no matter how often you use it.

It’s a small reminder that even everyday essentials can be thoughtfully designed, combining function, durability, and craftsmanship in something as simple as a towel.
