Care Instructions: Printed yoga mats release a very strong but harmless odor when first unwrapped. Please unroll and air out your mat for 2-3 days before use. Spot clean with our Yoga Mat Wash or damp cloth with cold water and mild detergent. Dry flat. The mat may fade and become brittle and unusable if exposed to the sun for extended periods of time. We recommend storing your mat in a mat bag when not in use. Learn more about How to Remove That New Yoga Mat Smell.

Joshua O. ★★★★★

The textured surface gives me way more confidence in down dog than my old slippery mat ever did. It’s grippy without being tacky, and the 6mm thickness absorbs just enough impact for my daily flows.

Nicholas F. ★★★★★

The 6mm cushioning is perfect for my knees during floor poses, and the mat unrolls flat right out of the box. I've had no slipping at all, even in a sweaty flow.

Mia Z. ★★★★★

The sticky texture really does keep my hands from sliding during downward dog, even when I'm sweaty. Six millimeters is enough cushion for my knees without making balance poses feel wobbly. Two months in and it still lies flat with no weird curling at the edges.
