Picky Picky (towels)

What towel brand is absorbent, slightly scratchy, and cotton?

My old all-cotton towels from who knows where are an embarrassment. To keep them "scratchy" I air dry them and never use fabric softener. Requirements for replacements:

--Must be looped cotton, i.e. not flat Turkish towel type

--Must have medium to low pile, i.e. not plush and fluffy and not the excellent thick Restoration Hardware towels my husband has. Those do have the right "scratchy" quality I like but take forever to air dry.

I spotted some Nestwell towels at Bed, Bath, and Beyond recently that felt textured enough, but it's so hard to tell. Mefi led me to excellent Nestwell crispy percale sheets this year, which fit the bill. So I need a towel equivalent of those Nestwell percale sheets.
