A Warm Companion with Droll Hamsters
This charming towel is named 和たおるフェイス I LOVE ハムスター (Wa-taoru Face I LOVE Hamster). The design is a declaration of love for the little rodents: countless lovingly illustrated hamsters in warm orange, gentle gray, and white tones frolic on the light background. In various poses – sometimes sitting curiously, sometimes comfortably eating – they give the towel a particularly playful and heartwarming touch.
Your Benefits at a Glance
- Brilliant Front: The smoothly woven cotton side beautifully showcases illustrations, colors, and fine details.
- Absorbent Back: The soft terry cloth back provides a pleasant feel and good everyday usability.
- Compact and Practical: A handy towel for on the go, work, the bathroom, or as a small gift with a Japanese connection.
Frequently Asked Questions
▸ What distinguishes Wa-taoru from classic terry cloth?
The double-sided construction combines a smoothly woven cotton front (brilliantly displays the illustration) with an absorbent terry cloth back. Two functions in one towel – both aesthetic and practical.
▸ How do I care for the Wa-taoru?
Machine wash up to 40 °C, without fabric softener (which reduces the absorbency of the terry side). Tumble dry at medium heat.
▸ What is the Wa-taoru intended for?
As an everyday, hand, or guest towel; also ideal for on the go thanks to its compact size. The terry cloth back gently dries hands and face, while the front displays the motif.
Crafted by HAMAMONYO, in Yokohama since 1948. The meticulous Japanese craftsmanship ensures a pleasant feel, good absorbency, and everyday quality.

Care and instructions
- Wash:Washable up to 40 °C.
- Recommendation:A laundry net is ideal! It prevents zippers or buttons on other garments from pulling threads out of the terry cloth side ("thread puller").
- Dry:Do not tumble dry. The heat could cause the two different layers of fabric to shrink unevenly, resulting in the cloth becoming misshapen. Simply pull it into shape and hang it up.
- Thread puller:Should a terry cloth loop come loose: Do not pull on it! Simply cut the protruding thread short with scissors. Since it is a woven loop, this will not create a hole.
- Softener:Use sparingly or not at all, as it reduces the absorbency of the terry cloth ("gliding effect" instead of drying).
