The Felis Peshtemal Bathrobe is a short, hooded robe made for the beach. A soft geometric pattern in coral, teal and grey covers the whole robe. We weave it from 100% organic Turkish cotton in a flat peshtemal weave. So it dries fast, packs small and pulls on easily over a swimsuit.

100% organic cotton
Soft Turkish cotton grown without synthetic pesticides. As a result, it breathes on hot days and feels gentle on skin.
Hooded, knee-length cut
At 37.5″ long, it’s easy to move in. Also, the hood covers wet hair after a swim.
Light at about 600 g
That’s roughly 21 oz, so it packs like a sweater. Even so, it covers you well after a swim.
Quick-drying weave
Because the weave is flat, it dries in a fraction of the time a terry robe needs.



Why people love the Felis Peshtemal Bathrobe
- It’s a robe you can travel with. Folded, it fits in a beach bag or a carry-on, unlike a bulky terry robe.
- It dries while you relax. Hang it on a lounger after a swim, and it’s usually dry before lunch.
- It works as a cover-up. For example, wear it from the beach to the café over your swimsuit.
- It keeps its shape. Moreover, the tie belt and two pockets make it practical all day, not just after a shower.
- It gets softer. In fact, the organic cotton relaxes and absorbs better with every wash.
- It’s made by hand. Above all, it’s woven in Turkiye and finished with hand-tied tassels.
Where you’ll wear it
Beach and pool
First, slip it on over your swimsuit. Then let it dry in the sun while you relax.
Holidays and cruises
Because it weighs so little, it earns a spot in every suitcase.
Spa and yoga
Wrap up after class or a sauna. Meanwhile, the breathable cotton keeps you comfortable.
Home and boat
Also, it’s a light bathrobe for warm months. On a boat, it also takes up far less room than terry.

Why a peshtemal robe?
Peshtemal fabric comes from the Turkish hammam, where bathers needed cloth that was light, absorbent and quick to dry. Long Turkish cotton fibers make a smooth, strong yarn, so the flat weave stays soft for years. As a result, a peshtemal robe gives you the comfort of a bathrobe with the weight of a shirt. Our Felis is woven in Turkiye from organic cotton and finished by hand. To learn more, read our Peshtemal Towels guide.
Care
- First, machine wash warm with similar colors.
- Then tumble dry low, or line dry in the shade.
- Skip bleach and fabric softener, because softener makes cotton less absorbent.
- Finally, if a tassel loosens, simply retie the knot by hand.
Questions we get asked
Is a peshtemal robe warm enough after a shower?
It’s lighter than terry, so it’s best for warm days, travel and the beach. However, the cotton still absorbs well and feels cozy on mild evenings.
Will it feel stiff at first?
At first, new flat-woven cotton can feel crisp. Still, it softens noticeably after the first few washes.
Which size should I choose?
First, compare the chart above with a robe you already own. Because the Felis is a short robe, choose L/XL if you’d like a little more room.
Is it unisex?
Yes. The relaxed cut suits both women and men, so choose by the measurements rather than the label.

This is one of the most useful things I have ever bought. It’s pretty, dries quickly and the size makes it useful for other things besides a bathrobe. I’ve given 5 people Turkish towels as gifts and they all love them. I take mine when I travel. I even bring it when staying with friends. I don’t need to use their bathrobes so there is no bathrobe laundry. Will definitely buy again.

I wanted a lightweight alternative for the warmer months, and the flat-weave peştemal design of this robe is exactly what I was searching for. It feels incredibly breezy and soft against the skin, yet it functions perfectly right out of the bath or sauna. The breathable cotton keeps you perfectly comfortable without overheating, and it never develops that annoying damp towel smell. It has two deep, practical pockets and a sturdy tie belt that make it comfortable enough to lounge in all day long. A true game-changer for my daily summer routine!
