Why this gift works
The Manduka Yogitoes Yoga Mat Towel is a full-length towel, 71 by 24 inches, that lies over a yoga mat for sweaty sessions such as hot yoga. Patented silicone nubs on the back hold it in place, and Manduka describes the top as a sweat-activated textured surface. It weighs about a pound, is made from polyester and nylon including recycled polyester from plastic bottles, and is machine washable cold. This listing is the solid Linen color.
In a hot class a bare mat gets slippery and a regular towel bunches up. A mat towel solves both, which is why hot-yoga regulars usually own one. It packs small and goes straight in the washing machine after class.
Who is this gift for?
Great for
- A hot-yoga regular
- Someone who sweats a lot in class
- Pairing with a new mat
Think twice if
- They practice gently at home
- They want a cotton towel
The catch
It is a topper, not a mat, so it only works on top of one. Manduka says the grip is sweat-activated, so it is made for sweaty sessions; care rules out bleach, dryer sheets and fabric softener, and it is expensive for a towel.
Skip if they practice gently at home and rarely sweat much - a mat alone is enough.
