MandukaYoga Commuter Mat Carrier - Eco-Friendly Cotton, Easy to Carry, Hands-Free, For All Mat Sizes, 68" x 1.5"

My boyfriend and I each got one of these slings for our hot yoga classes, and we’ve been using them nonstop for a few weeks now. It’s such a simple product, but it makes a huge difference in our routine.What We Love:• Super easy to use — Just loop it over your mat and go. No fumbling or wrestling post-class.• Lightweight but strong — The material feels durable and secure, even when the mat is soaked from hot yoga.• Looks clean and minimal — We both got black, and it matches our gear perfectly without looking bulky or cheap.One Thing to Note:• Not a downside, but if you use an extra thick mat (like over 1/2”), it might feel a bit snug. Ours are standard size and fit great.This sling has honestly saved us time and hassle after class. No more rolling and stuffing mats into tight bags while sweaty and tired. We just loop it up, throw it over the shoulder, and we’re out. It’s such a simple upgrade, but now I can’t imagine going without it.

The perfect color to match with my mat, this is the second mandala strap that I bought and I like it, beautiful color and comfortable on my shoulder when carrying the mat.

Like other Manduka products, they make amazing high-quality products... with limited good instructions on how to best utilize it.If you use this commuter yoga strap like it shows in the product pictures, you'll be okay-ish. Your mat won't slip while you're carrying it and the added cushioning on the middle portion is nice on the shoulders. But if you're like me, you'll probably be annoyed that leaving the mat flat in its carrier in the car or for several days will slowly loosen and unfurl (very annoying).Well! There's actually a better way to use it that prevents this! After playing with the straps a bit, I realized you can double loop it to prevent this problem. If you look at the photo I uploaded, that's my mat in the car in its carrier (the one on the left is my extra yoga mat in a velco carrier). Notice how it's tight enough that the strap is biting into the mat itself. This is the ideal way to use this carrier.Now, how do you do this? Ok, so you might have to play with it a little to figure it out, but the first loop is for the buckle to bite onto itself, not for the mat to go through. If you feed the other end of the strap through that first loop, you create a second loop for the mat to go into. Tightening this causes the first loop to bite onto the strap holding it tight while you adjust the second loop down to secure your mat. Viola!You can play with how you feed the strap through to create this biting action, but it seems to work a lot better after I figured this out. Hope this helps!

The media could not be loaded. I love it. It is comfortable and looks cute.

I bought because I wanted a really good mat since I do yoga 6 days a week. My yoga studio owner/instructor recommended and she ended up buying the same one. It was very slick until I spread sea salt on, left for 24 hours then scrubbed off as recommended by the manufacturer.That helped A LOT. I am still having a little slippage but hope that resolves as I break in. I might even do salt procedure again. I think I will really like it in the long term. I bought the strap to carry and I don't have any problems with weight since I only carry from my car into studio. I gave 4 stars since I had to do salt scrub on it, would be nice if done by manufacturer.

This extra long mat was bought for my 6'1" son. He's very pleased with it. I own the regular length mat for 5 plus years and use it a few times a week. I'm very happy with it. It is heavier than most mats but it also gives more cushioning for my joints

So I bought this because it had next day delivery, only realizing after that it's a yoga mat holder, not a yoga mat. Don't make a same mistake as me! 5 stars still because returning it was easy.

Muy buen producto. Combina perfecto con mi mat Manduka Pro
