Description
The Q-Tees T18J1 is an 11 by 18 inch budget rally towel in 100% cotton terrycloth at 1.3 pounds per dozen. The double-sided terry construction provides absorbency on both faces while keeping per-unit cost under a dollar at wholesale volume, making the T18J1 the go-to towel for high-volume event giveaways, sports rallies, and promotional programs where cost per impression is the primary metric.
The suggested imprint area is 8 by 12 inches, covering most of the face for screen-printed logos, sponsor marks, and event branding. Plastisol ink on the cotton terry holds through multiple washes. The hemmed edges finish cleanly without fraying. Water-based ink works for a softer hand on the terry surface.
