Buying towels online

I need to buy bath and face towels online, to replace my old Wamsutta towels that are sadly no longer available. I don't want bath sheets and don't need washcloths, although if I find a set I like that includes washcloths, that would be ok as long as it's no more than two washcloths. I'd like recommendations. They must be 100% cotton, medium weight, soft, well made, and no more than $100 for two bath towels and two face towels, or a six-piece set (bath, face, wash). Can you help?
Lands' End is a solid choice; we have been using The Company Store's basic towels (I think they're now called Company Cotton Turkish Cotton) for years and years and they hold up extremely well.
Two bath towels and two hand towels will run you a smidge over $100 but there is almost always a sale of some sort; right at the moment it's 25% off $75 or more so that gets you comfortably under $100.

On the way less expensive side, I've had decent experiences with Target's Threshold line of bath towels.

I also needed to replace some Wamsutta towels recently. After trying several possible replacements, I ended up liking these JC Penney Fieldcrest towels. They’re not fancy, but they’re absorbent and comfortable. I linked the “sculpted” ones because that’s what I got; can’t vouch for the rest of the brand but they’re probably similar.

Check out Quince for excellent quality, low prices. I have their bedding and suitcases and have been pleased. I noticed a vacation rental had these towels recently and I made note that they were also Quince! They do sell out, but they restock regularly, so just be on the lookout.
Classic set with washcloths or Turkish Spa Bundle: $80
Waffle with no washcloths: $80
Two bath towels: $50
Two hand towels: $30
