I loved how soft this material felt on my skin, there was no noise at all with them. Absorbency was great from what I could tell, reason I say this is because they didn't fit me. Normally I like to go size up for products like this, this one don't. It is true to size, if you normally wear L/XL get a L/XL, I went up a size and they were too big on me, All in all these were a great product, just my fault for getting too big a size in them.
