What is the difference between Terry Cloth and French Terry?

Terry cloth is a thick fabric with absorbent loops on both sides, commonly used for towels and bathrobes. French Terry, on the other hand, has loops on only one side, typically the inside, and a smooth exterior, making it lighter and suitable for clothing like sweatshirts and loungewear. The main difference lies in their thickness, absorbency, and application due to the distribution of loops.
