A terry article comprising: a ground component including a plurality of ground warp yarns and a plurality of weft yarns interwoven with the plurality of ground warp yarns, wherein the weft yarns and the ground warp yarns each include at least one of a natural fiber and a synthetic fiber, the ground component including a lower side and an upper side opposed to the lower side along a vertical direction ; and a pile component including 1) a first plurality of pile loops that extend away from the ground component along the vertical direction, the first plurality of pile loops formed from a first set of pile yarns comprised of natural fibers, the first plurality of pile loops including a first pile base located at the ground component, a first pile end spaced apart from the first pile base, and a first pile height (H1) that extends from the first pile base to the first pile end along the vertical direction, and 2) a second plurality of pile loops that extend away from the ground component in the vertical direction, the second plurality of pile loops formed from a set of continuous filament thermoplastic yarns , the second plurality of pile loops including a second pile base at the ground component, a second pile end spaced apart from the second pile base, and a second pile height (H2) that extends from the second pile base to the second pile end along the vertical direction, the second pile height is less than the first pile height, the article characterized in that the article has a surface in part formed by the second pile height (H2) having the ends shrunk relative to the first set of pile yarns in zones 80, 82 and relative to the remaining parts of the second pile whilst maintained in a substantially stable vertical upright direction relative to each other by respective presentation on the warp yarns and weft yarns woven together. a ground component including a plurality of ground warp yarns and a plurality of weft yarns interwoven with the plurality of ground warp yarns, wherein the weft yarns and the ground warp yarns each include at least one of a natural fiber and a synthetic fiber, the ground component including a lower side and an upper side opposed to the lower side along a vertical direction ; and a pile component including 1) a first plurality of pile loops that extend away from the ground component along the vertical direction, the first plurality of pile loops formed from a first set of pile yarns comprised of natural fibers, the first plurality of pile loops including a first pile base located at the ground component, a first pile end spaced apart from the first pile base, and a first pile height (H1) that extends from the first pile base to the first pile end along the vertical direction, and 2) a second plurality of pile loops that extend away from the ground component in the vertical direction, the second plurality of pile loops formed from a set of continuous filament thermoplastic yarns , the second plurality of pile loops including a second pile base at the ground component, a second pile end spaced apart from the second pile base, and a second pile height (H2) that extends from the second pile base to the second pile end along the vertical direction, the second pile height is less than the first pile height, the article characterized in that the article has a surface in part formed by the second pile height (H2) having the ends shrunk relative to the first set of pile yarns in zones 80, 82 and relative to the remaining parts of the second pile whilst maintained in a substantially stable vertical upright direction relative to each other by respective presentation on the warp yarns and weft yarns woven together. <EOS>
