I've had this mat in black for almost 2 years now. I was a total beginner at the time of purchase. It felt really weird paying over $100 for a piece of rubber, but it was easily worth it in hindsight! I gotta take it with me if I'm staying at my partner's place for a while because the cheapo mat available there just doesn't cut it. The strength and the grippyness of the b yoga mat (my yoga mat) really lets you be active in your moves, pushing and pulling against the ground. The thickness does pretty good on my sensitive knees. I swear my partner dug their nails into it because there are a few scratches. The black also looks dirty quickly. The grippyness mysteriously attracts flax seeds from around my tiny 1 bedroom apartment. But I'm totally impressed. I thought I was wasting my money but the mat was well worth it and has brought a lot of good into my life.

I was hesitant to purchase this due to the price, but decided to take the plunge when a friend and yoga instructor recommended it. I only wish I'd bought it sooner! It's as grippy as they say it is. I used to hold tension in certain poses, focused on not slipping or falling. My first time using the mat and I was able to just BE. It felt incredible. I can't recommend this mat enough. It's a very firm foam, so I appreciate the extra cushioning of the 6mm thickness. The firmness adds to the stability without compromising comfort. It's totally worth the price!

I’ve had Manduka emo series, tries Giam…. This one by far beats all the others. I never slip. I can sweat in peace and know my downward dog will hold the stretching. I’m in love with my mat. I recieved it beginning April 2021 and now we’re goi no July. I use it everyday for 15-30-60 minutes at a time. There is a little scuffing from my heels, which is normal since it’s sooo grippy.
I has taken my practice to a different level and it’s thick enough and long enough for me. I’m nearly 6’ woman and I’ve got bad knees. After doing my research, this was my only best option.
I’ve found my fit. I hope this helps you in your decision.
Namaste 🙏

Nothing beats a BYoga mat! The grip is amazing especially if you take hot classes or just get clammy hands like myself. It is super cushioned and the colours are all beautiful. I only ever recommend BYoga mats and I have tried every other brand and still nothing beats these.

I had to come write a review after someone approached me to ask about where I got a longer mat. As a tall person sometimes I'd slip off the mat. I was worried it might be too long or I'd get in others way or something, but it's perfect. Whatever the material is made of my feet don't slip when they get sweaty, This mat is actually perfect and I will certainly buy another if mine ever wears out but it's going strong ~3 years later
