Pros & Cons
Pros
Great mat for firmness and durability. Production is emissions neutral.
Follow the breaking in instructions and give it a salt scrub before the first use. Used sea salt to break it in as suggested.
It's tacky/comfy and came in great condition. It has a really nice grippy texture which has got better as i used it.
Good solid mat for yoga. As described. Beautiful colour too. Can't fault this mat.
Cons
The grip on this yoga mat is very slippy. The mat is heavy compared to other matts. The matt is very slippery even after 3 salting procedures. You need a lot of grip on a yoga mat and this has very little.
hugely disapointing and a big waste of way too much money. Very poor customer service and refused a refund. Buy the lifeforme.
Highlights
Quality
