Gaiam Essentials 2/5" Thick (10mm) Yoga & Pilates, Fitness & Exercise Mat with Easy-Cinch Carrier Strap Cusion Support For Fitness and Gym Workouts

Definitely needs to be aired out for at least 24h after first unpacking & unrolling, as the fresh chemical smell is STRONG - will need to leave in a well ventilated room or outside!It's a good size, exactly as stated, which is perfect for my frame without feeling too big or small. It's not super bulky, but it's still thick enough to protect me from the hardwood floor I stretch on. Love the color! Carry strap is pretty cheap, it's just a fabric strap with a slider - if it's the difference between this item and a different one, honestly making your own strap could be better. But it feels nice and relaxing and I'm not worried about it rolling away! Love the mat, would get again if I needed a spare.

I recently this yoga mat, and it’s been a game-changer for my practice. It provides excellent cushioning, especially on hard floors. The extra padding is a blessing for my knees and joints during longer sessions, reducing strain without compromising stability.Overall, this thick yoga mat is perfect for anyone seeking comfort and support without sacrificing functionality. It’s ideal for restorative yoga, Pilates, or anyone with sensitive joints. Highly recommend for a cozy, reliable practice!

Fantastic mat! Thicker and much lighter than most other mats so great for younger children to carry their own mat. Has an easy to use carry strap. Non slippery and the teal was as shown in photo. We are using it for exercising and stretching next to the pool so we love that it’s thicker and non slippery!

Thick but comfortable. Definitely helps with my knees hurting from other mats and I love the color!

The texture of the mat has a good thick layer that is comfortable, and the straps you can remove them easily!

Great eggplant colored yoga mat. Really nice feel on the toes! The mat is ready to use and doesn’t curl in like other cheaper thinner mats. Love that it comes with a strap that is the perfect length.

This is a replacement for the Gaiam mat my puppies chewed up. It showed up quickly as promised. It is 10mm thick, which is great for me as I have a knee that needs replacement, and has allowed me to continue my yoga for almost a year since the knee diagnosis. You may want something a little thinner for balance, I just step off the mat for balance exercises. It is easy to clean, and I love that they still offered my color! The chewed up mat is being re-purposed as kneeling mats for the garden!

Great quality, texture and feel. Easy to use and store. Love the color. Perfect for my needs. Thank you!
