Are these towels terry cloth, or are they like T-shirt material?

They are not T-Shirt material and not terry cloth. More like a tight weave cotton cloth.

Not terry cloth & not tee shirt material. They are more like flour sack. They don't leave lint behind. They are GREAT!

I believe these are made from fabric called "birds eye" cotton - it is also commonly used for fabric baby diapers and generally available as fabric by the yard. If you can do a google image search you may be able to find some good close ups of the weave.

Neither. I really can't compare the material. However, really cleans glass...any type. No streaks.

They are not cotton. They are synthetic microfiber. They are really nice , wash up well. I was nicely surprised at the softness, reminds me of silk but not as slick. Only downside is I have a deep mattress with 2 in. topper and the fit isn't quite right. I couldn't find the tag that was in them. I like high quality cotton best , but for the price you cant beat these.

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.)

Sorry, I have no idea. They were nice towels, just too small for me and not cotton.

The seating portion is a canvas material. Very durable. The part that wraps around the bottom and seat back is a spandex material. The material isn't absorbent like a terry cloth but can certainly get wet. It dries quickly though. I had these on my jeep.

It's a microfiber insert, a polyester. The texture is almost like a terry cloth towel. It's 3 layers.

No, it's not technically towel material, but is super squishy, warm, and comfortable. I don't dry myself with the towel, but put it on right after I dry myself. It's a big robe, so the measurements are rather open and should accommodate a wide variety of sizes.

I was led to believe they're bamboo. To be honest I couldn't distinguish them from cotton, but we ordered extra bamboo inserts and received the same thing

to the best our knowledge they are. THis is why we bought them, tho i can't say i know a lot about the standards applied and certifications checked! It matters to us because of the cultivation of cotton can be so toxic. They are nice towels though, we were pleased. At first they didn't seem to soak up as much water but when we washed them they were nicer and did. Maybethere was some sizing on them! not sure but they felt nice right away. I hope that helps!

No they are terry cloth on both front and back. You can find disposable ones in the drug store and they are pretty big so food doesn't land on their clothes. Hope this helps.

These towels are heavy enough and do not stretch or shrink. They should work well. The fabric is stiff and remains stiff after many washings.

Arlenette, I don't know if they are made of real Turkish cotton, but if you're asking if the material is absorbent (as the wonderful old dish towels made of Turkish cotton, that used to be available, were), the answer is yes. These towels are very nicely absorbent, much as the old Turkish cotton dish towels used to be, before synthetic dishtowels became the norm.

Yes, like sponges, but also no. First, they are thin(isn) and flexible, so they are like a dish cloth. Second, once wet, you can squeeze almost all of the water out and use them to dry things down. Third, because they are thin, they dry quicker and if you take good care to let them dry (like hanging them up with a clothes pin or something) they won't get "nasty". But if they do get sour, wet down and microwave, etc... and they are good as new. I will generally use the same cloth for MONTHS.

They are what I would call sparse terry. They are decent thickness. Good for hand drying, even dishes. I bought them for what I call 'slop up' towels. In other words, i bought these so family doesn't use my really good bath or kitchen towels to wipe up a big spill or clean with. Don't forget what you pay for them! Good towels are 3x the price. These are affordable enough to be all purpose towels. I've used and washed about 4 times, including using bleach. I do however, lower dryer temp. They seem to hold up well. They were VERY linty at first.

Yes, the towels are as think as the washcloths. Both are nice. The towels aren't so super-thick so that they don't absorb. But not so thin that they won't dry you off.

This primarily a towel. It can also be used as a wrap/shawl, tablecloth, etc. The more these towels are washed the softer they get.
