Let customers speak for us
This is the best yoga mat I've ever bought - it's beautiful and comfortable - nice and soft considering it's made of up-cycled materials. I also feel so good using it instead of a mass produced plastic one. highly recommend!
I'm happy with my carpet. Sellers are very responsive and try to find solutions quickly. Thank you very much
Got so many compliments at yoga this AM when my husband and I rolled out our matts— excellent quality and quick delivery!! They were a great thickness even for doing yoga on a concrete floor.
The quality is great and plenty of space to put the mat inside and any extra items that may need to be thrown in there. Thank you
Best mat ever!! So comfy and very well made!! Thank you so much for the swiftest shipping in the world!!
Arrived exactly as expected! Beautiful colors and excellent craftsmanship. They look beautiful on my white, farmhouse table. Would order again!
I love this item! It’s perfect for practicing yoga, soft enough to cushion my knees and well-made to lost a long time. I’ve been looking for a good option for a sustainable mat and bag for said mat- and I’ve found it!
Well made, exactly as expected. At first I ordered only two. Once I received them, I ordered four more!
