I'm currently in the market for some high quality towels and this one has certainly piqued my interest, what is the weight of the cotton used?

Any feedback yet on how these are holding up?

No idea about the weight of the cotton but they are fat, heavy and soft without being too fluffy. They fold beautifully.

They are not particularly heavy, that is not how the Japanese measure the quality of a towel.

They're heavy compared to the tat available to me here. One thing they certainly are is super absorbent and surprisingly quick to dry. Good link btw, thank you.

I currently have one small and one medium size imabari towel which are both light weight (but super absorbent) when compared to the usual heavy hotel towels, I think I have a good idea of what you mean, thanks.

Going a little off topic and more of a wish list: I would love to see some IH shorts, t-shirts, hoodies et al.  made from this material!

This is the quality I like with the imabari towels I have, it's good to know it's replicated in the larger size towel, thanks.

In the wild with my favorite towel.

The IH motorcycle logo is a favorite.

How about bringing those back? Or even with less hassle adding it to the offer as they are, without IH branding (like you do with woolfman, papanui, chup socks, ...)
I wonder ... a towel with a price tag of IH 21oz jeans
I would go for that one - https://imabari-towel.jp/shop/g/g8525/
