## Description

desertcart.com : Manduka The Pro Yoga Mat, Black Sage : Jade Yoga Mat : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Very nice mat. Needs a strap for studio or travel. - So worth the money. This is a bit wider than the desertcart mats Honestly though if you have the space and the coin the extra wide version is worth it for home use. I've traveled internationally with this mat. Rolled up it's heavier and more bulky than you expect compared to the cheap mats. A yoga strap would be ideal. These need to be cleaned per the instructions. The material is a little porous: I used vinegar and the mat smelled like Easter eggs for a few months after. If you're a larger man, or practicing on a concrete or tile surface this is the only yoga mat that will save your hands and knees. The material is thicker but also dense. It doesn't affect balance.
Review: Excellent Premium Yoga Mat, but you might need to break it in before you love it - This is an awesome mat! Solid enough to feel stable while still providing enough cushion for my joints, and long enough for a tall guy! I like the material used, no strong chemical smell, no annoying designs or images on the mat. It is a bit on heavier side, but that doesn't bother me. I've used a fair amount of different mats over the years, but this one is one of the best I've tried. My biggest challenge with most mats (aside from most just being too short) is losing grip on my hands and feet as I practice. At first this mat was no different, but after I used the salt method to break it in the grip is better, and as advertised, it's getting better and better the more I use it. So that would be my biggest caution for anyone considering this premium mat - you may not love it right out of the box, but give it time

## Questions & Answers

**Q: are these mats slippery?**
A: Our PRO™ and PROlite™ mats offer unmatched support and stability. The PRO Series mats are made from high density premium PVC, making them the most durable mat on the market, lasting ten times longer than any other mat. The PRO have a closed-cell surface, so this mat will not absorb any moisture, such as sweat. This hygienic and durable design allows us to offer the Lifetime Guarantee. However, it does mean that if you are using your mat in a heated environment, have a sweaty practice, or if your palms are sweaty, you will need to pair your mat with a towel to absorb the moisture. The towel works to absorb any sweat, preventing slipping, and they are easy to clean - just throw the towel in the wash when you are done!

**Q: What is the best type/brand salt and brush to use for "breaking in" this mat?**
A: The best way to break in your mat is to practice, practice, practice on it. In addition to frequent practice, you can also try our salt break-in method an average of 3-5 times. Instructions are as follows:

Top your mat with sea salt* and let it sit for 24 hours. After 24 hours, wipe the salt off using a dry or damp washcloth. Once you have removed the salt, we recommend laying your mat out in the sun for 3-6 hours.

*sea salt is preferred, however, any coarse salt is fine

**Q: How’s this mat for cushion and grip? I’m almost 6foot tall.. is it really extra long?**
A: Yes very long at 85 inches in length, probably longest mat you’ll find on the market. Thick and heavy- like 10 pounds seriously! Grip is comparable to other yoga mats out there.

**Q: Is the black mat 71 or 85 inches??? Size seems to vary by color!**
A: The Manduka Black Mat PRO comes in the standard 71" length, as well as the extra long 85" length.  When you select each color, you can then choose the available length.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Yoga Mat. Expensive... but You Get What You Pay for!
*by R***N on October 27, 2014*

I Love this mat! I am a relative newbie in yoga, have been sporadically going to YMCA yoga classes for a little over a year. I started out by just using the mats at the Y. Then I decided that I would get my own mat... I didn't really want to use the same mat that lots of other people have been using; wasn't too sure how often they are cleaned or the health of previous users of the mats. Well... I got a yoga mat in the $20 range. Thin and my hands slipped in Down Facing Dog. Moved up to a mat in the $30 range and used both mats during practice. No problems with the thickness of the combined mats stacked together (comfort of knees in poses that require you to be on all fours), but still a little problem with slipping hands. And standing balance poses were a little more difficult since the two mats together were a little "spongy" and my balance is not that great that I needed the extra "added benefit" of a less stable surface to balance on! I noticed that all my instructors use Manduka mats... Hmmmm, wonder if the mats are worth the (lots) extra money they cost??? Asked a couple of my instructors, and they all said emphatically "YES!" Sooooo.... Decided to give the $$$ mat a try. I mean, after all, I spend well over $100 for running shoes... and stability and comfort in my yoga mat is also important! Well, I have to say, the instructors are right! I LOVE this mat. My hands do NOT slip in Down Dog, even toward the end of a strenuous yoga workout when I am a little "damp". (I sweat like a well lathered horse after a hard run...). The mat is comfortable in all of the poses that I have done; no issues with knees on the hard surfaces of the gym floor. Standing balance poses have become a little easier; the firmness of the Manduka mat provides stability that I was just not getting with less expensive options. The mat itself is obviously of better material than my previous less expensive mats. Firmer, heavier, less slippery. I have seen some reviews that say it is TOO heavy... not a problem. If you are doing plank position, and you are complaining about the weight of this mat, then something does not equate! I like the fact that the mat has a lifetime guarantee. One of my main instructors has used her mat for over 4 years; and she teaches classes 2 hours a day on average ... every day (or maybe more...). Her mat is still in perfect condition. She said that she went through 2 mats a year before moving up to the Manduka... So is it really more expensive than the cheaper mats??? Maybe not!!! I got the extra long Manduka mat. I am not tall (5'9") but I like to stay on the mat and not on the floor - shorter mats have me hanging off the ends on some poses with the normal sized mats. The longer mat is perfect! If you are new to Yoga, give yoga a try using the studio mats at the class before buying a Manduka (they are expensive). If you like Yoga and want to continue... BUY A MANDUKA MAT!!! You will not be sorry!
