What is the fabric weight of the towel? Trying to understand how thick the towel is.

Not thick at all. it's thin and made out of a microfiber. It's great for keeping in your car. It absorbs water fairly quickly too.

The one we received was about 8 inches long and and inch thick. Couldn't tell you the exact weight (it's about an inch shorter than it was when we got it), but it's definitely substantial.

They are cotton terry cloth, not microfiber. They are a good weight - about like a moderately priced bath towel, not thin and flimsy. Had them just a short time, but I feel like they are good quality and should hold up to solid usage and repeated washing for many years.

I don't think it's an inch thick as the other reply mentioned. I think it's probably between .50-.75 an inch. It's still substantial and it weighs quite a bit.

I'm not sure in terms of actual weight, but the heaviest thing I have hung on mine so far is full-size wet bath towels and none have bent - seem very sturdy.

I would say about 2" thick. It is very plush, washes and dries really well although it does take a while to dry. It revitalized a mattress which should be replaced. One of my best purchases.

A heavier towel has more microfiber in it. Microfiber weight is measured in grams per square meter (GSM) (conversion calculators can be found online). A good quality microfiber towel should weigh 250 GSM at the very least, usually more.

I would agree with the others: it's more substantial than the typical microfiber dust cloth but it's still smooth and soft on the skin. It doesn't feel rough or thick like a typical "towel". Don't put in dryer, hang to dry.

Norma, I am not going to go dig it out of my boat, but it was thicker than I thought. Probably about 3". I was actually pretty impressed when I opened this quality wise. I was just trying to satisfy requirements, but it is pretty nice.

The towel is very plush and absorbent, yes. I've only washed mine a few times but so far they've remained soft, plush and absorbent.

I don't have the weight, but it's got some heaviness to it. It feels and looks like a heavy banquet table cloth. To me, it has more of a cotton/polyester feel. Hope that helps! It's definitely not a lightweight tablecloth.

I agree with the previous answers! It is a soft microfiber and it folds up smaller than most bath towels.

Can't really measure thickness, but I would say that it is a heavy to standard grade and good quality. Hope this helps!

I have never purchased another yoga towel, this is my first one. However, it feels like other quick dry towels I've used in the past. This particular towel is 80% polyester; 20% nylon.

They are 100% Egyptian cotton 725 gram weight. I also bought the cotton 550 gram weight towels and they are definitely lighter/thinner. (I had the most difficult time trying to find this basic info when I was looking at the different towels too!! I just happened to glance at the heading on my browser page at one point, and there it was....go figure. You'd think Amazon would include a basic fact like this.)

I don't know, but I would not buy these towels again. They are very heavy and not absorbent. We are no longer using them.
