Disclosed are through-air dried single-ply tissue products having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first and second surfaces are outer surfaces of the tissue product. The first surface comprises a three-dimensional surface topography, and the surface topography comprises a plurality of discrete dome-shaped protrusions extending outwardly from the first surface. Each protrusion has a length:width ratio of 1:1 to 4:1. A footprint area of the protrusions covers at least about 15% of a total footprint area of the first surface and the tissue product has an average TS750 value of about 30 or less.
