Manduka eKO SuperLite 1.5mm yoga mat-Clay Stripe

All eKO® Series mats have a closed-cell surface, which will never absorb moisture. Because of this, if you are warm/sweaty at all, the mat will feel slippery, so we always recommend pairing it with one of our hand towels to absorb moisture and provide extra traction or to apply our yoga grip gel during your practice. If you're practicing hot yoga, we recommend a mat towel for full mat coverage. For towel guidance read our guide to yoga towels and check out this blog post for more tips to decrease slip and increase grip. The marbled, striped and dip colors are hand-processed and have unique patterns. We can't guarantee the mat will match the image exactly. 99% Latex-free.

Use a clean cloth to wipe the mat dry before rolling or using. For monthly restore: Maintain the performance of your eKO® mat by applying Manduka's natural rubber yoga mat restore once a month. Allow the cleaner to sit for 5 minutes and then use a clean cloth to gently wipe the mat dry before rolling or using. For thorough clean: Use Manduka's botanical mat cleaner. DO NOT put the eKO® Series in the washing machine, as it will damage the mat and increase the breakdown of the rubber mat DO NOT soak or submerge the eKO® Series in water DO NOT use the salt method on the eKO® Series Usage of the eKO® Series in a hot environment can dry out the rubber and thus loose performance and reduce flexibility of the material. If used in hot areas, ensure to use the natural rubber yoga mat restore more regularly to maintain performance Always ensure your mat and the floor are completely dry before placing your mat on the floor. A wet mat or wet floor can cause color transfer and staining to the floor To store: Do not leave the mat exposed to direct sunlight. If wet, allow the mat to dry before rolling up. For best performance, when not in use, keep the eKO® Series rolled and in a bag or cover, as prolonged air and sun exposure can damage the rubber on the mat.
