Yogitoes Skidless Premium Mat-Size Yoga Towel


Premium mat-size yoga towel for slip prevention

100 percent silicone eco nubs grip the mat or carpet

Keeps your hands and feet from slipping mid-stretch

80/20 polyester-nylon blend is super absorbent

Machine-washable and dryer-safe; measures 24 x 68 inches

This Yogitoes Skidless premium yoga towel is the only towel created specifically to prevent slipping while practicing yoga. The towel works intuitively: simply place the side with the silicone eco nubs face down on the yoga mat or low-pile carpet. Once you distribute your weight in a yoga posture, the eco nubs start gripping the mat, thus keeping your hands or feet from slipping in mid-stretch. The towel's 80 percent polyester and 20 percent nylon material, meanwhile, is super absorbent, thus putting a hygienic layer between you and your exercise equipment. The towel, which is machine-washable and dryer-safe (it's designed to dry fast), measures 24 by 68 inches. About Yogitoes

(for pilates I use a sticky mat and then turn rubber side down, so no slippage; for hatha I turn rubber side up for toe grips .... cheating I know but there it is.)

They absorb sweat well for bikrammers, though major sweaters might still consider the Breathe mats for bikram.

So. Namaste....

I am somewhat disappointed with this product. I expected not to skid at all, and I still slide around a fair bit in yoga class. It does do a great job absorbing sweat in hot yoga classes and it also moves around very little on my mat, even when I jump forward/back. However, I'm still looking for something that will help my hands to stop sliding when I'm in downward dog. I had hoped this was that solution, but it's not....
