Why is this important?
Terry cloth, being highly absorbent, tends to crumble and deteriorate with washing and daily use. This strip acts as a barrier that strengthens the fibers and slows wear.

In short: a towel with these strips will last longer and stay in better condition than a towel without.

Easier maintenance
Another advantage: these strips also allow the fabric to hold up better after washing.

After several machine washes, a towel without reinforcement can:

To deform
Lose fiber
Fraying at the edges
Thanks to the reinforcement bands, the structure of the towel remains more stable, thus avoiding these inconveniences and extending its lifespan.
