These towels are a a large 30" x 54" size which is what we prefer in a bath towel. Quite absorbent & soft. They have a nice thickness yet not so thick it takes forever for them to dry in the dryer. They also have less loose threads, especially after washing a few times, than many of the towels I've previously had. I did wash these before use and collected quite a bit of lint but they have shed much less since. Having washed these a few times since I can say they are holding up nicely.
