We know when you introduce a new element to your home lifestyle, you’re bound to have questions! So here are the answers to a few commonly asked questions about our Pokoloko Turkish robes:
Q: What is a Turkish bathrobe?
A bathrobe is a cozy dressing gown, perfect for after the bath when comfort comes before anything else. Pokoloko has a beautiful selection of natural Turkish robes, made from 100% pure Turkish cotton, suitable and complementary to any style.
Q: Why would you need a Turkish bathrobe?
Bathrobes are a wonderful way to treat yourself and self-soothe while keeping you warm and cozy at home. Ideal for after baths and before getting dressed. You may also wear it as an extra layer over clothes or pyjamas. A good robe can become a key part of morning and night routines, and can even be used in place of a towel.
Q: Are Pokoloko Turkish robes of good quality?
Yes, our robes are made by traditional artisans specializing in the ancient Turkish weaving tradition. The quality, uniqueness, and soft hand feel are remarkable.
Q: How do you determine the length of the Turkish robe you want?
Depending on how you want to wear your robe, Pokoloko robes come knee-length to as long as the mid-calf or ankle. A longer robe will keep you warmer and more protected from drafts, whereas a short robe will be more suitable for all-day wear and warmer seasons. The good news is that no matter what length, our robes always feel amazing!
Q: Can I wear a Turkish robe after a shower?
Absolutely! Turkish cotton provides exceptional absorbency, and because of its long fibres, they dry quickly and effectively. Turkish cotton also has the wonderful effect of becoming softer with each use.
Q: What does GSM stand for?
GSM stands for grams per square meter. This is the metric measurement of the weight of a fabric.
Q: Why does the GSM of a Turkish Robe matter?
The GSM measurement can help you decide the best weight of fabric for your needs and usage. The higher the GSM of the fabric, the denser and heavier the fabric will be.
A lower GSM does not necessarily mean lower quality, but it will mean the towel is lighter in weight and usually thinner.
All Pokoloko Turkish fabrics are carefully pre-screened and pre-tested for quality, absorptivity, durability, and style.
Our fabrics range from 140gsm (thinner) to 420gsm (thicker).
