Made with long plush soft fleece, unlike cheaper forms of polar fleece which can pill after long use and washing. The plush soft fleece is a thicker step-up or nicer fabric as it has a higher pile. The plush soft fleece bath towel does not pill due to its Minky and furry texture, and it tends to be absorbent ( absorbs slowly at first because of the fluffy surface, so it feels sticks to the skin, then absorbs quickly), with no fade, wrinkle and shrink resistant.
