Product Review: Manduka PRO Yoga Mat

by Clay Beyersdorfer

The Manduka PRO Yoga Mat is in a class by itself in terms of durability and comfort, an exercise mat perfect for those looking to take their wellness to the next level.

You might be asking yourself, “Wait, a yoga mat that is both strong AND comfy? How is that possible!?”

Well with the Manduka PRO Yoga Mat, it is - thanks to the polyvinyl chloride material that is literally impossible to recycle or destroy. If you’re looking for a great surface to stretch out on that’s dangerous to our ecosystem, look no further!

On top of the durable, non-natural material, the Manduka PRO features a sticky surface that will allow you to hold your favorite pose without slipping and maintain proper alignment. 

This mat has the perfect amount of adhesive, which will have you feeling like a used band-aid every time you peel yourself off of it after a Bikram session.

Many people will ask, “Well once that adhesive wears off, won’t the mat be slick, rendering it useless?”

The answer is absolutely not!

Each Manduka PRO Yoga Mat comes standard with a patented texture that will give you the support you need to stretch comfortably and safely, one that will undoubtedly leave reptile-looking imprints on your skin.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE THICKNESS!?

The most important thing that all yoga lovers agree on is the thickness of a mat - you don’t want something too thin, yet it can’t be too bulky. 

Fear no more, the Manduka PRO Yoga Mat is a 6 mm thick pad, the perfect amount of cushion that all levels of yoga lovers can enjoy, which only pales in comparison to the joy your dog will feel laying on it after you leave it out after a workout!

Each mat is the standard 24x68 inch frame, which can be rolled up and tucked under your arm to take you to a local artisan coffee shop, community park, or outdoor farmer’s market.

When people look at you, they’ll definitely be saying “Wow, that person does yoga.”

Coming in a variety of colors, the Manduka PRO Yoga Mat is sure to be the “last” yoga mat you ever buy. 

But don’t just believe us, hear what some fans of the Manduka PRO are saying!

“It fits really great in the trunk of my car,” - Kiera, 27.

“I was really struggling to find a mat that didn’t stink after I used it, this one is holding up so far,” - Scott, 34

“The huge dump that my cat left on it thinking it was a litter box came right off!” - Sammy, 31

So, if you’re looking to make a statement the next time you head to yoga class or just want to stretch out at home in style and comfort, look no further than the Manduka PRO Yoga Mat.
