Multiple Designs for Multiple Moods
THE CORK MAT
- Unlike most of our competition, our Cork Mat is made with a 100% natural rubber base layer topped with a renewable, sustainable cork top layer.
- While natural cork provides superior wet and dry grip, it is ideal in heated and hot yoga classes because as temperatures rise, cork begins to loosen and becomes softer & easier to grip.
- It's also moisture-activated - becoming grippier as you sweat.
- Truly nature's best solution for towel-free traction!
- Cork is also closed-cell and naturally anti-microbial, sealing out moisture & resisting odor and bacteria from sweat.
- Our natural rubber base layer offers a unique springy ride that cushions and protects joints, while also remaining stable and supportive in any pose.
- Stays put on the floor better than foam base layers, and provides denser cushioning.
Note: The foldable 1.5mm option is excellent for yogis on the go, and also provides an excellent non-slip, natural "topper" to other mats.
PRO TIP
- To activate grip, lightly spritz your mat with water before practice.
DURABLE
- Supports any practice from a high intensity workout to a gentle flow.
- Suitable for shoes.
EARTH CONSCIOUS
- Sustainable, renewable cork top layer made from the outer layer of bark from the cork oak tree. (Cork trees are the only tree in the world that regenerate stripped bark.)
- Base layer is made with natural, non-Amazonian harvested tree rubber.
Phthalate, silicone and toxin-fee.
