As if our future beach vacations called and requested it, Brooklinen has brought back the best-selling Checkerboard collection that sold out in speedy fashion in 2022. The retro-inspired print launched last July and quickly became the bedding and bath purveyor’s most sought-after limited-edition run. You won’t want to sit on this one: The juicy mango shade was out of stock within seven days of its debut. And since summer Fridays are inching closer to reality, we’re skipping over the midlength robes and hand towels and heading straight for the sizable bath sheets that are 20% off.

Made with 100% Turkish, Oeko-Tex–certified cotton, the towels look just as sleek hanging from a bathroom hook as they do slung across shoulders en route to the beach. And since they’re 40-by-65-inches big, they sprawl out on a pool lounger, no problem. “I love these towels! They are all so plush and soft,” one shopper shares. Another writes, “This is like a beautiful blanket that hugs me dry every morning…absolutely cannot go back to our old towels.”

Of the three tonal color combos, the clearly crowd-pleasing mango is our top pick. But that isn’t to say the cool greens in mint and pop pink’s rosy peach and orange pairing aren’t just as good. Any one of the trio would perk up your everyday routine or add a graphic background to that vacation pic. Thanks to the midweight, 460 GSM construction, the towels are super-absorbent and quick drying—exactly what we want after a shower or dip in the ocean. Once they’re in your bag, all that’s left to do is plan your weekend getaway.
