Parachute's Turkish Cotton Towels Are Now As Low As $8
If you don't own plush spa towels, you might be convinced you don't need them. But they can be a gamechanger in your daily life (after all, you use towels multiple times a day), so when we see a great sale, we shout it out. That's why we're thrilled about Parachute's classic Turkish cotton towels being 40% off today, with prices as low as $8.
You know Parachute: The home brand is known for their luxury linens and 'cloud-like bedding,' in addition to plush bath towels that reviewers say stand the test of time and turn them into towel snobs. Their Turkish cotton towels are popular, with 4.4 stars across over 2,200 reviews, and a sale like 40% off doesn't come around often, so you'll want to jump on this one while you can.Towels are sold individually, and you can choose between a washcloth (12-by-12 inches), hand towel (30-by-20), bath towel (56-by-30), and bath sheet (70-by-40). Select colors are on sale, including moss, haze, mineral, and stone (all earthy, neutral tones that can work in a variety of different bathrooms).Each towel is made with 100% long-staple Turkish cotton, is Oeko-Tex certified, and has a ribbed dobby design (meaning they have a decorative woven element that's distinct from the texture of the rest of the towel). They're plush and soft while still being effectively absorbent, and are machine-washable for easy care (Parachute has a whole washing and drying guide to help you ensure your towels last as long as possible).Reviewers can't get enough of how soft and high-quality these towels are. 'If I had to describe these towels in one word: LUXURIOUS. Hands down the nicest towels I've ever owned,' one reviewer wrote. 'My bathroom looks and feels like a spa, which is exactly what I was going for.'They've also gotten rave reviews for their absorbency, how they retain their softness after washing, and their quickness to dry. 'Best towels ever, and I should know…I've seriously tried every towel out there, and these are by far the best,' another shopper said.One person, echoing multiple other comments, wrote, 'My only complaint is they sold out of them before I could order two more.' That should motivate you to take advantage of this sale ASAP — after all, you never know when it could disappear. So go ahead and add these to your cart while there's still inventory, or keep scrolling for even more promising reviews.
Promising reviews:
'These towels are ridiculously soft. I didn't think I was a towel snob … but apparently I am. Love these!' —Lauren S.'First time purchasing these towels. I have wanted to try luxury towels for a few years and have recently been very impressed with Parachute's sheets. We are big on Restoration Hardware stuff, but Parachute's sheets AND towels, by far, are so much more comfortable and higher quality. We purchased both Parachute and RH Turkish towels recently, and we are not impressed with RH compared to Parachute's quality. I'm going on a little over a week using Parachute's, and these towels continually remain very soft day after day. No other towel like it; worth the investment!' —Will M'This is the second set of towels I've purchased from Parachute. The quality is excellent and worth paying a little extra for. They're soft, absorbent, and hold up well over several years of daily use.' —Sheri'When we were looking to purchase new towels for our master bathroom, I thought I'd try Parachute's towels. These are by far the best towels I've ever purchased. I look for absorbency as well as softness for comfort. I purchased in two colors that look fantastic in our new bathroom.' —Lisa B.'I was led to Parachute by online news articles. Bought a stack that matched my decor better than expected. But the feel of them fresh out of taking a shower is almost like some big fluffy fur. I love it. It handles moisture easily and looks great. But it's the FEEL on your body that adds an extra minute or two when drying off. Who knew? Well, now I do.' —Anonymous

The Best '70s Ski Outfits From the POWDER Archives
As you might remember (or as your parents might remind you), things were a bit different in the 1970s. Global politics were in upheaval, society was opening its mind to new norms, and ski bumming was entering its first golden age. Those were also the years when this publication, first helmed by founders Jake and Dave Moe, began chronicling the deeper side of ski culture. At the time, ski culture had started to evolve into the free-spirited and expression-driven form it still has today, in part driven by the pages of the first volumes of POWDER Magazine. Powder skiing represented the ultimate freedom, and in true 1970s fashion, the skiers of the time took their expression of it to extreme lengths. Speaking of fashion, this was the era of true drip: from tight-fitting one-piece ski suits to oversized knit sweaters, most everything featured loud colors, patterns, and revealing necklines. Check out the Best 70s Ski Outfits from the POWDER archives below. This piece is part of POWDER's Summer of Ski Nostalgia content series. Stay tuned in daily for more nostalgic articles, and keep an eye out for the upcoming Summer of Ski Nostalgia badge to identify future content. You can also view all of POWDER's summer nostalgia content here. These were the days before Gore-Tex and other waterproof/breathable fabrics, with skiers instead opting for wool sweaters and the odd stretchy ski suit. These things were warm, bordering on sweaty, but they undoubtedly oozed style. A 1977 gear editorial section highlighting the year's finest insulated wares for skiers. Many iconic ski brands really found their stride in the 1970s. Look at how far things have come in these ads from Bogner, Rossignol, and Gerry Clothing. Apparel ads from the 70s were just built different. The wool sweater, still an icon of ski fashion today, provided the vibes during the 70s. Personally, these are WAY too hot for me to wear anywhere but inside a cozy mountain hut, but to each their own, I suppose. Eyewear was also on point, with many skiers still opting for large-framed sunglasses instead of full-on goggles. Fashion over function, especially on sunny days. For anyone who has worn goggles of this era, you'll remember that fogging was a pretty real issue. Marketing copy has always been a hot topic of discussion for brands. How can you make things eye-catching without being too weird? That clearly didn't matter to apparel manufacturers back then. Marlboro jackets? Budweiser sweaters? Nothing was sacred back then. While backcountry skiing really entered its golden age during the COVID pandemic, skiers have been walking up mountains and enjoying soft turns on the way down for many years. Take a look at the style and equipment (or lack thereof) employed during the 1970s from places like Vail to Courchevel. Long before technical outerwear, skiers were enjoying hard-earned turns deep in the backcountry. This piece is part of POWDER's Summer of Ski Nostalgia content series.

New Images Show How World's Tallest Metro Station Will Look
Dubai, known for the world's tallest building among its iconic skyscrapers, is now set to have the world's tallest metro station, as the United Arab Emirates positions itself as a leading force in the Middle East's modernization. The planned station on a new metro line is another example of how Gulf countries are competing with megaprojects aimed at attracting foreign investment as they seek to diversify economies that have historically relied on oil exports. The UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar have all prioritized American investment in key infrastructure projects, including business deals with the family of U.S. President Donald Trump, with whom they have forged strong alliances during his second presidential term through pledging billions of investments and arms purchase-and a gift plane. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, laid the foundation stone for the Dubai Metro Blue Line and approved the design of the Emaar Properties Station, which will rise 74 meters-making it the highest metro station globally. The station covers about 11,000 square meters, and is expected to accommodate up to 160,000 passengers, with daily ridership projected at over 70,000 by 2040, according to the Dubai government's media office. The station was designed by American company Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), also behind the city's landmark Burj Khalifa, as well as the Olympic Tower in New York, and the Sears Tower in Chicago. In 2024, Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced a consortium of two Turkish and one Chinese company to develop the Dubai Metro Blue Line, which spans 18 miles and includes 14 stations. Last month, the Walt Disney Company and Miral announced a deal Wednesday to create a new Disney Park resort in the UAE capital of Abu Dhabi. Dubai Government Media Office: "A central gateway allows natural light to flood down to the platform level, creating a bright and welcoming space during the day. Sunlight reflects off the stone surfaces, underscoring the station's timeless elegance. By night, it transforms into a radiant beacon that guides travelers, with a carefully planned lighting strategy that enhances its architectural character and reaffirms its role as a gateway to Dubai's bright future." Mattar al-Tayer, Director General of Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) said in 2024: "Additionally, the Blue Line will feature International City (1), the largest underground interchange station in the metro network. Covering over 44,000 square meters, this station will have the capacity to handle 350,000 passengers daily, significantly enhancing connectivity across the metro system." The project is set to be officially inaugurated in September 2029.
