Usually the higher the GSM (grams per square meter) rating the more fluffy and absorbent the towels will be. I usually go with 700+ GSM towels on a minimum for myself. Usually if you can find a higher GSM towel by a reputable manufacturer you should be good to go. High quality materials definitely make a big difference in absorbency and softness as well, so that’s always something to keep in mind. Also the way the towels are stitched, dyed, and put together can be a good indicator of how durable they will be long term.

I picked up some Super Pile towels from Abyss & Habidecor probably 7 years ago, and they’re still kicking butt. Very expensive towels, but they’re by far the softest, most absorbing, and nicest towels that I’ve ever owned. If they’re in your budget, or you can find them on sale they’re really phenomenal towels.
