Gaiam Thick Yoga Mat, Exercise & Fitness Mat with Easy-Cinch Carrying Strap | Non-Slip NBR Foam | Joint Cushioning | Yoga, Pilates, Fitness & Floor Workouts | 72"L x 24"W

I needed the thickest yoga mat I could find because I have terrible balance and I was sure to take a tumble sooner not later. I shopped diligently. I checked out Costco - great price but the thickness wasn't there. I scoured Amazon comparing price and thickness. Turns out the thicker mats were priced significantly higher than Gaiam. Now who knows what deal will make my results obsolete. Well I unpacked the mat and checked it out with a few poses. Yup, right then and there within one minute I took a tumble. Luckily I landed on the mat. It did it's job and only my dignity was hurt. No bruises except to my ego. But with my horrid balance it could easily have turned out differently. I think I should buy at least two more. Cuz I ain't going to land perfectly every time. And no more standing balance poses for me. With the critical safety feature well demonstrated and cost effective come other issues. The mat is a relatively standard size for a quality yoga mat. I have certainly tried to save money and ended up with smaller and thinner mats. But back then my balance was significantly better and the trade off seemed reasonable. It seems to have a permanent curve in the mat. Makes it easy to roll but there is definitely an up and down surface spreading the mat. The harness to hold the mat is very secure, holds well but not the most convenient on the planet. The surface is nice and grippy very important to me. The mat has just enough give that you can sink your toes in a little bit. Excellent! Boy do I need that. Assuming I can stay balanced the whole time this is a comfortable (!) mat and if I just bounce off then you should not experience pain from extended standing poses.

Nice and thick, but still has good stability. The ridges are really nice - they give the mat a nice feel and they help with grip. I've only had it for a month with light use, so I cannot speak to longevity.

Very happy with this mat. It provides better protection and comfort for my knees than my previous 1” thick mat. It is a higher density foam, based on total weight 1lb. heavier, than my 1” mat. Since it’s thinner, it’s much easier to roll out or up . I didn’t notice any oder. Arrived on time next day.

Good very Soft ! Only cons is not looking new ! It’s has some defects ! Its knee support is there ! Grip is good . Easy to use ! Good its coming with a carry

I liked it. Thick and durable. Pretty standard pad. Safe choice. Pretty purple color. I appreciate the black carrying strap. Great price. Similar black ones for $35 at Target.

This mat is long enough and comfortable, I wish it was a little thicker but I like it

First time getting a yoga mat and I am pleased with it. Easy to clean and wipe down. Had a miniature horse step on it, no damage to the mat (yes, I did yoga with the horses). Price was reasonable.

Great support, cushioning and non-slip. I have sensitive knees and the cushioning on this thicker mat is perfect.

Le tapis répond bien à sa description, il est confortable et facile à transporter avec ses anses

I am buying it again after 3 years. It has been a staple in my daily fitness routine and now my wife’s too. Whether We are doing yoga, stretching, or floor exercises, this mat offers excellent support and comfort. The pic next to my 3 year old mat. Extra Thickness: The 2/5-inch thickness provides great cushioning for my knees, wrists, and back—perfect for anyone who needs extra support during workouts. Non-Slip Surface: The textured surface helps prevent slipping, even during more intense sessions or when I start to sweat. Lightweight with Carry Strap: It’s surprisingly light for its thickness and comes with a handy carrying strap, making it easy to take to the gym or a park. I’m really happy with this mat. It’s comfortable, supportive, and durable—definitely a great investment for anyone serious about yoga or home workouts.

Wonderful mat 10/10! It is thick enough such that my knees and back dont hurt anymore after using this, super comfortable! Definitely recommend to all!

Tenía miedo de que la calidad del producto fuera mala, pues había visto comentarios de compradores respecto a esto. Sin embargo, si bien no parece ser lo mejor de lo mejor, sí que es un buen producto con respecto a su precio (compré el color más barato). Así que, por mi parte le doy 10/10. Espero que duré bastante.

Bien épais pour la pratique et pas trop encombrant s'il est enroulé.
