Italy Towel

Since its invention in 1967, the Italy Scrub Towel has become an iconic item in Korean bathing culture and is used both in homes and public bath houses. Made of 100% Rayon and manufactured by a historical towel and fabric manufacturer founded in 1949, it became known as the Italy Towel, since the fabric used was initially made in Italy. It is used to exfoliate and revitalize the skin after soaking in a hot tub. Traditionally, Koreans had used normal towels wrapped around a rock to scrub the body, but the rough texture of the Italy Towel provided the perfect modern update.
