Abyss & Habidecor FAQ

We keep several complete sets of Super Pile Hand Towels in stock at all times. Simply pick the colour(s) you're interested in and we'll ship out your hand towel(s) to verify colour prior to a larger towel order.

When you've confirmed your colours, either keep the hand towels you've received, or return them for a full refund.

If you'd like to return the sample towels the easiest process is to have us send you a pre-paid return shipping label with your new towel order. Simply place the sample towels in the shipping carton, apply the return label and drop off or arrange pick up with the courier.

Although we strive for accuracy there are a few variables which are out of our control, including the colour settings of your display device. When an exact colour match is required, we recommend ordering Super Pile hand towel samples prior to placing your finalized order.

Abyss towels & Habidecor rugs are made in separate facilities in Portugal. Due to differences in climate and technique a complete match should not be expected. The shading differences are usually very subtle and is almost never noticeable with rugs placed on the floor, visually separated from the towels.

Yes, Abyss towels are always pre-shrunk, and will never pucker at the ends. What you see in the pictures or on the store shelf is what you'll see on your towel rack after dozens of washings.

Sometimes a towel will catch on a wedding ring or other obstacle. If pulls or snags should occur, simply snip them off. This will not affect the towel.

That's great! If you're near one of our stores in Calgary, Edmonton and Sherwood Park pop by any time. We have display model Super Pile hand towels in all 60 colours. These are available to sign-out with a deposit.

You'll also see our full in-stock selection of towels and rugs, all of which are available to take home today.
