The weight of a towel can be a great indicator of quality and performance. Typically, towel density is measured in grams per square meter (GSM) and ranges from 300 to 900 GSM. Towels with 580 GSM - like this Egyptian Cotton Towel Set - offer a more luxurious, spa-like experience. This medium-density towel will soak up water fast for noticeable absorbency, and dry quickly for a fresh feeling with each use. Similar to Egyptian cotton, Pima cotton (or the name brand Supima) offers luxurious softness, exceptional absorbency, fast-drying breathability, and long-lasting strength. Pima cotton comes from the same plant as Egyptian cotton, but is grown in America. This Pima Cotton Bath Towel Set will look, feel, and perform similar to an Egyptian cotton bath towel, even though the cotton is from a different region. Pima cotton makes a great choice when it comes to supreme comfort and everyday luxury. Twist references the number of times yarn is twisted per inch of yarn. A lower twist count creates more space between the fibers, allowing air to circulate, which means it doesn’t take as long for the towel to dry. Low-twist yarn, which is used in this Pima Cotton Set, requires the use of longer staple fibers because of their intrinsic strength. By using just the long staple fibers (vs. long and short like with ringspun), low-twist towels offer a heavier weight, superior absorbency, and a softer feel that’s noticeably fluffier than everyday twisted yarn towels found in most homes.
