How to choose the right yoga mat

Dimensions: Make sure you choose a mat with the right dimensions? Some yoga mats are not very wide, and might not be long enough for tall people.

Thickness: Some yoga mats are very thin, 1/4′. Others are 1/3, and some even 1/2 inch thick. The thicker the mat, the more cushy it is, and the more room it also takes up in storage.

Carry strap / transportation: Do you need to carry your yoga mat with you, or store it somewhere? Then you will enjoy a yoga mat that comes with a carry strap.

Anti-slip: Mats can easily slip on hard floors unless they have anti-slip surfaces. It’s more practical if you find a yoga mat that has anti-slip on both sides.

Durability / tear: Look for reviews that praise the durability of the item. It is important that you do not have to replace it all the time. Some mats even claim to have “anti-tear” material, which will prevent easy tearing of the fabric.

Ribbed or smooth: Notice whether the yoga mat has a ribbed and a smooth side. You will probably enjoy the ability to switch between the two.

Cleaning: See the requirements for cleaning the mat. The best ones don’t require special materials for cleaning.

PVC / Latex free: Some mats have no PVCs or Latex and are more eco-friendly

Warranty: Some mats comes with a 1 or 2-year warranty. This is important to look for, as the tearing can be an issue for some mats.
