GaiamDry-Grip Yoga Mat - 5mm Thick Non-Slip Exercise & Fitness Mat for Standard or Hot Yoga, Pilates and Floor Workouts - Cushioned Support, Non-Slip Coat - 68 x 24 Inches

Highly recommend! Finally, a good non-slip, durable yoga mat. Would definitely buy again.I've had trouble finding a good Non-slip yoga mat. It's been an ongoing search for years. After trying and returning many mats, I usually end up buying another cheap mat.. the ones that shed little pieces and don't' hold up well. I gave this one a shot and I am glad I did. Here's why I'd recommend it:non-slip (not too grippy; which yes, I've encountered. The grip is perfect). doesn't shed plastic pieces. good quality. good thickness/ support for any workout (I use it for yoga, Pilates, weightlifting, ab workouts, all of my indoor workouts since I have a hardwood floor). I got it at the beginning of the year (2025) and it has held up very well with almost daily use (often multiple times a day).. no visible wear or tears or thinning (and no shedding of pieces!). It is easy to wipe down since it's a smooth material (I use an organic cleaner similar to the Meyer's cleaning products, and a damp cloth). Also, great price for the quality of the mat!Other helpful information:-I use this mat at home, but it is a heavier mat than others, so it might not be great for traveling.-The very end where it's rolled doesn't lay perfectly flat, but that doesn't bother me. It has so many other good qualities, please don't let that stop you from purchasing it.-No carrying strap, but it stays rolled up on its own, so I haven't needed a strap.-I don't recall it having any strong odor. I believe there was a slight new mat smell, and I left it unrolled to air out the first day. Any new mat smell quickly dissipated and by now there's definitely no smell.. it also doesn't pick up odor from my sweat or anything either.-It is not reversible. It stays put on my hardwood floor during the workout.. the underside doesn't slide on the floor.-It seems a tad shorter than prior mats I've had, but it's a good length for me; I'm 5'6" FYI.Best mat I've found! I've tried probably over a dozen mats from amazon, including the more expensive ones like Manduka and returned them, mostly because they were never actually non-slip.

I’ve been using this yoga mat for a few weeks now and I’m really impressed. The non-slip surface holds up well, even during intense or sweaty sessions—it keeps me stable through every pose. It’s also super lightweight and rolls up easily, making it perfect for travel or taking to the studio. Cleaning it is a breeze—just a quick wipe down and it’s good as new. Overall, it’s a reliable, low-maintenance mat that delivers on performance and convenience. Highly recommend!

Love this yoga mat! The only one I tried that’s thick enough not to need padding for your knees. I bought the slap band by the same brand to keep it rolled up and it works well. Have been using for over a year with no issues or signs of wear.

Great mat! Super soft and amazing for hot yoga! The only reason for the 4 star is the smell! I have let it sit out and it’s still strong.

This yoga mat prevents me from slipping. Great product for the price. I wish I would have gotten this sooner. The design stays on and looks good.

UPDATE:I have changed my rating to one star. The first mat I ordered in December, and immediately loved it. Very non-slip for hot yoga. Best mat I've ever used. But about 6 weeks later, the top layer started to bubble up and separate from the bottom layer in spots. The bubbles got bigger and bigger. I contacted Amazon, who were lovely as usual and replaced it immediately, no hassle. Unfortunately, the second one has done the exact same thing after only 3 weeks of use! Big bubbles have formed on one end of the mat. Each time I use it now, they get bigger and bigger and make it impossible to properly stand on. Its unfortunate that the quality is so low, because it really could be a great mat. Returning this second one and trying something else.Overall my favorite mat due to it's non-slippage qualities. I used a LuLuLemon mat for years, but when I joined a new yoga studio, the bottom of it started slipping on the new flooring. It also started to almost stretch out in a strange way. I tried a Jade mat, but slipped all over when I sweated on it. This mat almost never slips at all. I am a heavy sweater, so need one that is as slip proof as possible. It is a bit less wide than the LuLu mat, but I got used to that quickly.Cons:- It does not dry. It's weird. I will wipe it off after a class, and when I unroll it at my next class a day later, it is still just as wet as it was when I rolled it up. My LuLu mat did not do that. You have to let it breathe after a class and basically drape it over something totally unrolled for it to dry. This kind of sucks since I usually keep it in my car. Others at my studio have this mat as well, and there's always looks wet when they roll them out too.- It smells bad. Probably because it doesn't dry well.- What really sucks is that after only 90 days of using it, a bubble popped up on one end. LIke the blue part was starting to separate from the bottom black part. That should not happen after less than 2 months with a mat this expensive. Luckily, Amazon is replacing it for free. Hopefully the new one will not do this. If it does, I will have to find a new and different mat.

Size is so nice, very roomy for dynamic yoga sessions. It’s thin but dense so the padding still feels good and most importantly it is definitely non-slip so a huge improvement over my old mat. Love it so far!

The pros: large size, very grippy, not too heavyThe cons: beware the the mat can stick together and cause it to peel badly (see pics), you will need to wipe down and let it air dry overnight. Rolling up your mat and forgetting about it will cause it to stick and peel the top layer off when you unroll it for your next practice.
