Which Travel Mat Is Right for You?
When choosing a travel mat, your priorities should be the material and how you will use it. The three main styles in our collection meet different needs:
- Manduka eKO Superlite (1.5mm): Made entirely from natural tree rubber. Its standout feature is that it is foldable. It folds down to about the size of an A4 sheet and fits easily into a backpack or suitcase. Its natural rubber surface provides superior grip.
- Manduka PRO Travel (2.5mm): A lighter version of the legendary PRO series. It comes with a lifetime guarantee and delivers the PRO series' familiar dense texture and joint support in a travel size (1.1 kg). When rolled up, it is remarkably slim.
- Manduka GRP Adapt (1.5mm): Brings GRP technology, which stays non-slip even during the heaviest sweating, to a travel size. It can be used as a mat overlay or on its own. With its sweat-absorbing surface, it is ideal for hot climates and intense practices.
Benefits of a Travel Yoga Mat
These styles are not just for travel; they can also be used as a hygienic layer over shared studio mats. Their ultra-thin construction lets you feel the floor better, giving you an advantage in balancing poses. Being lightweight, they lighten your load on the way from work to the studio or to a yoga session in the park.
