Since most bathrobes sold in the US Market, are manufactured in Turkey, India, China, Pakistan,..etc. where the producers use the Metric system to determine the fabric weight.
A mid-weight bathrobe fabric would be something like 420 grams per square meter. This is very clear and straight forward: one square meter of this fabric weighs 420 grams.
Things get complicated when these bathrobes are shipped to the US market, which as we all know, uses imperial measurements of ounces, yards, pounds, etc. Instead of grams/square meter, the measurements must be changed to ounces/square yard.
If we are looking to convert, we see that 1 ounce equals 28.5 grams, and 1 yard equals 0.914 meters.
Something peculiar happens when these bathrobes are sold in the US market. A lot of unscrupulous sellers will just report that their fabric weight is “15 ounces,” ( which really means 15 ounces per square meter ! ) instead of giving the more accurate ounces per square yardage, as 12 ounces per square yard ! .
Why is this unscrupulous? Because as the customer, you don’t know if that’s 15 ounces per square meter ( light weight ) or 15 ounces per square yard ( luxurious and thick ).
That’s why, as a conscious customer, you should only buy from sellers that indicate the weight of the fabric in ounces/square yard.

The writer of http://www.bathrobes.net has written a superior article. I got your point and there is nothing to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not disagree with: some of the truths listed on this page suck badly. n some of these truths are true lies. I will be back.
