prAna E.C.O. Yoga Mat


Our lightweight, recyclable Earth Conscious Offering Yoga Mat aligns a mindful yoga practice with a toxic-free manufacturing process. The two-toned, patterned surfaces offer great cushioning, hold your poses and won't absorb sweat. 72"L x 26"W.

I have just started to do Yoga, and in my opinion this mat is wonderful for that. Firstly, I am very tall, and so it is nice to actually find a mat that I can use. During yoga class I never really go off of my mat because of all of the extra room. This mat is thick. I love that. Many other people in my yoga classes use 2 to 3 mats on top of each other to have a soft surface, but this mat is thick and does the trick. I have ever had to double up or triple up my mat. It doesn't just feel good, but it looks good. I have the half yellow, half blue mat, and it is just so happy and beautiful. You can't help but to be happy doing yoga on it!...

I've only used this mat a handful of times, so I can't speak about the longevity, but I love the feel of it. It is decently cushion-y, and I don't slip too much. I didn't even wash it before first use because I was in a hurry and it worked well enough without a towel. No mat I have ever tried is slip poof, but this one works as well or better than most for me. It is a great value for the price (I paid in the $30-something range), and while blue/banana was not my first choice, I actually find the color attractive and cheerful now. I've never used the top of the line $60-80 mats like Manduka and Jade Harmony, but compared to the average cheap mat this is heaven for me. My studio had some of these so I knew what I was getting into when I bought it. I strongly recommend trying a bunch of mats at studios if you can, everyone has a different idea of what makes a good mat, so I think it is easier to buy one you have tried out and know suits your tastes than it is to guess.

Namaste!...

Disclaimer: I haven't purchased or used this mat. Rather, I'm reviewing the marketing strategy and I want to give the marketers of this mat some feedback: First of all, the mat sounds fine and I HUGELY appreciate that someone has finally mentioned something about the environmental aspects of how yoga mats are made. Thank you.Unfortunately, the competitive and belittling "I'm better than others" tone of the Product Description shows that whomever is marketing this product has absolutely no true understanding of the primary principles of yoga. Environmentally sound or not, how can I have a peaceful and enlightened yoga practice on a mat made and marketed with such intentions? This may seem inconsequential to some, but it matters to me and I think it may matter to many others as well. Namaste, prAna....
