This review is from: Manduka eKO 85-Inch 5mm Yoga Mat
I got this mat because it was extra long and had a couple of extra inches in width--very helpful in the Fixed-Firm pose! I also loved the color--not many long mats in a color a girl could love. But my beef is that this mat is like an ice rink for my Yogitoes towel!! I simply cannot believe it! The towel that gripped my cheap mat before now slides ALL OVER the place on this pricey one. So I guess now I need to spend the extra money to get a Manduka towel--I sweat so much in hot yoga that regular towels tend to get too wet. Ugh. Three $50 Yogitoes towels that are now useless. I wish they had mentioned something to this nature in the description. I've tried wetting the towel like another guy in my class does, but no dice. Very disappointing. So if you are considering this mat and have Yogitoes towels, add replacing them into the cost of purchase. It's going to be a $200 mat before I know it......

The ec0-mat just make me feel guilty-free carrying it around. It grip very well, and I'm loving practicing my Yoga on this beautiful mat. It's quite stink at first, i had it un-rolled indoor for a week to make the rubber smell go faster. The Mat still heavier than other brand, but i can't find this size mat anywhere else.......

The picture shows a two colored mat with moss green on one side and black on the other. I liked this combo. It was actually moss green on both sides. If I had known this, I would have purchased a different color from the Manduka web site. Otherwise, I am very happy with the product....
