For a male, the GSM towel weighs approximately 9-10 pounds. For a female, the weight is approximately 6-8 pounds. The amount of GSM varies depending on the rope and the fabric density is not fixed. This could affect the actual GSM weight of your towel. To determine which size system to get, you need to determine what size and shape you're after:
What Is Towel GSM?
GSM stands for grams per square meter. It's a measurement used to determine the weight of a towel, and it's usually listed on the packaging or label of any given towel product.
300-400 GSM
300 to 400 GSM towels are a good choice for quick drying. They're also a good fit for those who want lightweight towels and softness.
400-600 GSM
The 400-600 GSM towel is the perfect all-purpose towel for everyday use. These towels are soft, but not too soft, which makes them ideal for drying off after a shower or bath. They're also durable and long lasting--you'll be able to use these towels for years to come!
600-900 GSM
600-900 GSM towels are the highest quality and most absorbent. They're best for drying your body after a shower or bath, as well as using them in the bathroom to wipe off makeup and cleanse the skin.
These towels will last longer than lower GSM ones because they're more durable, so you don't have to buy new ones every year or two like some lower-quality brands might require you to!
The Benefits of Higher GSM Towels?
Higher GSM towels are more absorbent, durable and soft. They are great for use in both commercial and residential settings.
High-quality towels will be more absorbent than lower-quality ones because they have been woven with a higher thread count. This means that they contain more fibers per square inch of fabric, which allows them to soak up liquids faster than low-end products that may have less threads per inch (TPI).
Which GSM Weight is Right For Me?
You can find towels to fit your needs in the GSM range of 800 to 1,200. If you're looking for a soft and luxurious towel, consider towels with a high GSM (1,000+) as they tend to be more plush. On the other hand, if you're looking for something more durable and absorbent than our standard 600-900 GSM options, then we have some great options that fall under our 800-1000 range.
The lower end of this spectrum is best suited for people who want something durable without sacrificing on softness or comfortability; while higher end products are better suited towards those seeking hydration because they'll soak up more water per square inch than lower GSM towels do.
Conclusion
As you can see, there are a lot of factors to consider when choosing the right towel. We hope this guide has been helpful in your decision-making process and we wish you the best of luck!
