These have a really good thickness. I own two sets in the gray color. I docked one star because they have some unthreatening going on. Admittedly, these are probably the highest quality towels I have ever purchased, so I don’t know if that’s common to all towels or not. I’m very satisfied with this purchase, especially for this price. If I had paid much more for it I think I would have been pretty disappointed. Since I didn’t, I’m not terribly upset. I will look around a bit before I purchase my next set, but if it turns out that unthreaded IS common, then I would readily purchase these again.
