Here it is, some specification for Hugger Mugger Solace Yoga Mat (Sandstone).

I needed a mat which would not only remain 'in place' but also one that would allow my feet to move smoothly (without sticking to the mat) when doing vinyasa (flow) yoga. This mat met both needs.



I do yoga in my garage on a concrete floor. I have tried many mats on many surfaces (including thick and thin rugs!)but none would stick to the floor and yet allow me to move my feet quickly in sun salutations and glide smoothly when moving in modified chaturangas! My best solution was a bamboo mat (cloth on one side)...which sticks like glue to the concrete floor...and this mat on top of the bamboo mat. (I tried a mysore cotton mat on top of the bamboo and it would have been fine except that it was not long enough. I would have needed either a shorter bamboo mat or a longer mysore cotton mat. The solace mat works well because it is cotton on one side...for easy flow movements...yet sticks to the bamboo on the other side. Therefore, it can be shorter than the bamboo mat.)



I love this combination so much that I got a 2nd bamboo mat (for a total space of 6'x8') and use 2 of the solace mats on top of the bamboo. This allows me ample room for reclining twists and even roll-overs (when I am experimenting on my own or when doing yin yoga)!



I have recommended them to all my yogi friends!

I returned this product because I found it unnecessary for Bikram yoga. It is a beautiful mat but overpriced for what it is - a thin rug. It reminded me of a kitchen or bathroom rug. A towel will do for most hot yoga but if you want a distinct mat and don't mind spending the money,I would highly recommend this mat.
Great mat at a wonderful discounted price! My only minor complaint is my hands/feet slip during certain poses which can be a bit of a distraction to my ashtanga practice. Other than that I am extremely satisfied with this product!

    Thanks Cartooniverse and zemaserver for helping us gathered the information.
