IPhone 3G used's review (perfect) 『I absolutely love this strap! It fits my yoga mat which is longer and thicker than normal (72" x 24" x 1/4"). Yoga mats are usually just 68 inches long and 1/8 inch thick. Works great!』
(yoga mat) 『love the yoga mat also got one for a friend as a gift and she loves it as well!』
(Disappointed) 『I bought the 84" yoga mat from the same vendor, but the "adjustable" strap didn't fit it. You would think that they would make it to fit all the mats they sell.』
(Very handy gadget) 『This carrying harness/strap makes carrying my oversized yoga mat much more comfortable. My mat is 1/4 inch thick, so I have to roll it very tight in order to be able to fasten the clasps, so you can figure that a thinner mat will go in quite easily.』 『Carry your yoga mat easily and comfortably with a yoga mat harness strap. This clever, ligthweight harness fits both our standard 1/8" mats and extra thick 1/4" mats, plus our Mandakni, ECO, Pilates, Extra Wide, Kid's, and Travel mats. It can also be used to carry a yoga mat rug or blanket. The sling has two quick release buckles, each on an adjustable loop that wraps around your mat. The strap is solid, durable, and reinforced for long life and comfort. And each sling is beautifully patterned on a solid black background.

Hugger Mugger
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (A Worthwhile Investment for Health and Wellness) 『This round bolster is so sturdy and versatile. I've had mine for years and use it nearly every day. Primarily I use it as a prop under my knees to relax or do restorative yoga. Sometimes I roll on my side and use it to prop an arm and/or leg. I don't know why the product description says it's good for seated asana; maybe someone can add a comment to explain that.
It's good that it has a strap, and that strap is not going to come off! The cover is washable too, but don't put it in the dryer.
I've given these to expectant mothers and always receive an enthusiastic thank you. They help the mommies-to-be get comfortable.
This is too thick for pranayama. If you want a bolster for that, get the standard one. But I do recommend this product wholeheartedly.』
(good buy) 『this is a nice, study round yoga bolster for the price. it would be nice if it had handles on both ends but having one is okay too.』

I love it! 1 - Im 6 feet tall and I fit completely on the mat with some space left. 2 - There is plenty of cushion for me not to feel the hard-wood floor. 3 - It comes with a carry bag which broke immediately but a needle and thread and its back together now. 4 - There also isnt much of a smell.』 『Extra large and extra thick, this yoga mat measures 72 inches long x 24 inches wide x 1/4 inch thick. It comes with a mesh carrying bag with adjustable shoulder strap. Also included is a "Solitude" 20-minute yoga-music CD.

IPhone 3G used's review (Mat Sack in Graphite) 『Really nice travel and storage bag. Glad I bought it to go with the mat. Good color and the zippers work well.』
(The right bag for your Manduka mat) 『If you have one of the larger size Manduka mats, then you'll want this bag.
The Manduka mats are quite heavy, about 7 pounds, so it's nice to have a bag that you can sling over your shoulder. At this price, though, it's a tad bit expensive. There are certainly other options that are not so expensive, but if you're into coordination, and you're thinking of getting a Manduka mat, then this is the bag for you.
They're nice and spiffy, too!』
(Looks great...) 『and worth it but if you're most concerned about price there are much less expensive, functional bags out there, albeit not as good looking. The bag lacks a secure place to store small items such as ID, cell phone, keys, etc...but has a generous sized side compartment which comfortably fits a towel, strap and bottle of water.』
(Manduka Mat Bag/Sak) 『The bag fits the mat perfectly, with some room to store other stuff. The manduka mat is quite heavy, which is why this bag helps to carry it!』 『A perfect fit for Manduka's eKO and black yoga mats, the large Manduka Mat Sak will last every bit as long as your yoga mat itself. The bag is designed with two compartments: a large, breathable main compartment that accommodates mats as big as 26 inches wide, and a side zippered compartment with organizer pockets for other yoga accessories, such as straps, towels, and personal belongings. Users will also appreciate the durable, lightweight ballistic nylon material--the same kind used by premium luggage brands--along with the unique ventilation system, which lets the mat breathe while stored inside the Mat Sak. Also available in a smaller size that's ideal for Manduka's PurpleLite mat, the large Mat Sak measures 31.7 by 7.1 by 7.1 inches (W x H x D).

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Nice bag - Too small for my 1/4" thick mat) 『This bag is well made and stylish enough, however, it was too small for my 1/4" mat. I tried and tried to make it fit, and though I was able to finally get my mat in the bag, the bag would not zip. The color of the bag in the picture is a little misleading, as well. I'd read other reviews that noted this, but thought "Oh, it'll be fine". The color is not really tan, or khaki, as it appears in the picture... it's more of a peach. It looks like the flesh colored crayon in a box of Crayola's. Not an ugly color, just not how it appears online. I could have dealt with it if my mat had fit. Needless to say, I returned the bag. I will say again, though, if your bag is not as thick as mine, this bag is very nice for the price. Put together well, helps the environment by being made out of recycled materials, has a nice strap and is stylish enough.』
(Wasted my money) 『I was very disappointed with this bag. It seemed like it would be a good investment, in particular from this company. Wrestling with the bag after a good yoga session could have undone all the peace and comfort I had just gained. I abandoned it immediately and would not even offer to give it away to a friend who is embarking on a yoga experience. The return policy will keep me from buying this type of product through Amazon.』
(Great idea) 『I like the idea of this bag - but it is too small for my yoga mat. I think this bag is designed to fit only Gaiam yoga mats, so beware if your mat has more padding than a typical mat. Color in person is lighter than in the picture, more of a light khaki.』
(Great bag) 『very nice; would be nice if was a little larger to hold a thicker mat without so much effort getting into the bag.』 『Now you can spread an earth-friendly message while you tote your yoga mat around town. Made entirely from recycled plastic bottles, this breathable mesh yoga mat bag from Gaiam is light and cushy and accommodates most standard-sized exercise mats. It even has a little extra room for your cell phone and other personal items. The bag features a full-length zipper for easy packing and unpacking and an adjustable shoulder strap for comfortable carrying. The dark tan is a nice natural color that will coordinate easily with your yoga mat and wardrobe. And, with its stylish design, you could even use it as a carry-on or weekend getaway bag.

Hugger Mugger
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Nice mat, but not as bold as the picture) 『Overall I think this is a good mat for the price. I bought another one from a different website (barefootyoga, in Amethyst) and they compare very well(except for one area, see below). There is a slight 'eww gross' smell when you first unroll it, but I didn't notice it anymore after about 3 uses. Some people have complained about it 'not being sticky' enough, but sticky mats by nature become stickier the more you use them.
My only beef was due to the coloration in the one I recieved. I love the stripey pattern, but mine was much more subtle than the picture shows. In fact when I first got it and it was still rolled up in the plastic I thought it was all one color. Only when I unrolled it did I see there was some stripy-ness to it. But it almost looks accidental as its much fainter and not uniform. I'll have to post a picture so other people can see some variation on what they may recieve. In contrast my other mat from the other website, matches the patterns shown to a T and is striped throughout rather than in patches.
But overall, its still a nice looking and usefull mat. I bought it to use in cold winter months when I need some 'warming aesthetics', lol. I will be buying more as I like a variety of colors.』
(Nice BUT....) 『I love the color and the quality seems nice on this yoga mat. My only issue with it is that it tends to get slippery upon sweating. My MAIN reason for purchasing a yoga mat was because the mat I was using (just an old used exercise mat but thick!), was due to a tendon injury from slipping during a pose. I researched these TO DEATH before I finally decided on this one based on the good reviews and the price. If anyone claims that this mat doesn't get slippery when sweating they're not sweating! Perhaps over time it will somehow get..."worked in"...and the slippery factor isn't HORRIBLE but it's a factor I was so trying to remedy in this purchase.... It IS soft, and colorful and seems sturdy although I found it to gather up at times during transitions from poses like downward dog into upward dog....and the like. It's not a BAD mat but I was expecting something more tactile and less smooth.』
(Disappointed) 『I am very disappointed. The picture of the mat shows a striped pattern. The mat I received does not have a pattern. I bought this one for the stripes. If I knew it was a solid color I wouldn't have wasted my money on this one.』
(Perfect yoga mat) 『This mat has it all. It's beautiful (the colors are rich and vibrant), and the texture is perfect (soft, sticky, durable). My first mat was from Gaiam, which has a beautiful print but is too slippery. My second was Savasa Natural Designs Collection Yoga Mat, which is nice but a little thin and starting to show wear. The Hugger Mugger mat's colors are part of the material (not just a print on top), and it feels substantial while also providing a great surface for holding poses. I'm surprised by how much I like the orange-red color, but it's so nice, I might just have to buy a purple-blue one as well!』 『The Nature Collection of yoga mats features a beautiful blended pattern on our Sticky Mat. You get the same great qualities of non - slip and durability plus exciting patterns inspired by nature. It offers insulation from cool floors and can be rolled or folded for use in poses. This Sticky Mat measures 1/8" x 24" x 68".』
