(Yoga Cushion) 『This is a very nice cushion, but it is much, much smaller in diameter than appears. If you have a "booty" you may need something bigger!』
(Great deal) 『This is a really nice zafu, and a great price. Initially it was a little too tall and hard to be comfortable for me, but because it has a zipper I removed some of the buckwheat hulls (I'm saving them in case I need to re-stuff later) and now it is perfect. With many zafus that you'll find on the internet you have to pay extra to have a zipper put in, and the product itself is more expensive to begin with. I strongly recommend this product for price, quality, and the ability to modify the amount of stuffing to make it exactly the height and softness that is comfortable for you.』
(yoga prop) 『I have meditated for many years without a prop. I finally decided to get one, and I love it. I can sit longer and my legs will not go to sleep, the ? to myself was why did I wait so long to buy the prop. I just love my new Zafus Meditation Cushion. I do not like to order from Hugger Mugger direct they make so many mistakes, but ordering from Amazon a Hugger Mugger product is a better. Thanks Amazon. katia Laguna Hills, California』
(Hugger Mugger) 『The hugger is the standard for yoga boosts. Good construction, comfort and conforming firmness all make for an excellent product.』

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Great Bag) 『This is beautiful bag; I get compliments on it all the time. There is not room for anything else, maybe a towel, but it more than serves its purpose.』
(Perfect bag) 『Love it, great embroidery, size, color is great for me, and the material is nice and soft. It also could be washed carefully if it gets to dirty. Great bag and it sure looks cute over my shoulder!』
(nice bag for the price) 『I'm really happy with this bag. Its good quality for the price, I have a bag almost just like it that cost twice as much on one of the more prestigous yoga sites. The embroidery on the shoulder strap matches even (which you also can't see in the pictures). I like the fabric because it feels durable like canvas but soft like a well worn pair of jeans. The color is nice and warm and I love the fish embroidery. The only complaint I would have is the bag should have been an inch or two deeper, which is where I took a star off for. I bought the hugger mugger natures collection standard size mat(sunset of course, which matches quite nicely) to go with it and even with the mat perfectly rolled the drawstring does not close the bag all the way. Which isn't a problem, unless its raining when your headed to class then you've got a mini funnel going on with your mat. Also there is some wiggle room for your mat while inside this bag, but not enough for props other than straps or a very thin rug or towel. I think the thicker sized mats would be a very tight fit as well.
The pocket also, decent sized to fit a few things like an ipod, change purse, or very thin wallet; but I wouldn't expect to cram too much in there. Basically if your looking for something to simply carry your standard sized mat in this would fit the bill, if you need more room you may want to pass.』
(Really like this bag!!) 『I really like this bag! It is even nicer in person than in pictures. The embroidery is a nice touch. I like the faded color too. It reminds me of something that's worn in a bit - and that adds character. I am keeping a Hugger Mugger 1/8" mat in it, and it fits fine.』
(Very bulky and yucky color) 『I didnt like this bag because the material was heavy and a nasty dull orangey-red color. i'd prefer something lightweight.』 『Take this beauty to class then out for coffee while looking cool and stylish. Gaiam's must-have embroidered mandala bag is made from 100% cotton. Designed with a pull-cord closure, zippered pocket and adjustable shoulder strap. Fits just what you need and looks great. Orange. Koi Fish. 25"L. Made in China.』 『Tote your yoga mat in style with this fashionable Gaiam carrying bag. The 100-percent cotton bag is distinguished by a unique embroidered Koi fish print that stands out in a crowd. The pull-cord closure, meanwhile, keeps your yoga mat secure regardless of where you're heading. And users will love the zippered pocket, which lets them store valuables such as a wallet, cell phone, or iPod.

Hugger Mugger
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Strong and Flexible...like Yoga!) 『I have a Manduka Black Mat and I also use a regular sticky mat for extra padding. I like to keep both of them rolled together because it is easier to set up for class. I used to have a Gaiam Velcro strap that I bought from target, but it wasn't big enough to wrap around both mats rolled together. The Hugger Mugger harness is very well made, very strong, and has the adjustable straps to accommodate any mat(s) you are using! I also like that it is dark (I could only find the Gaiam strap in pink), that it doesn't make that Velcro ripping noise before class, and that many of my fellow yogis are also using this strap! Tried and true!』
(Easy to grab...) 『I have been happy with this harness. It is easy to throw on your shoulder or to grab with your hands and carry. It only takes half a minute to clip on the ends of your mat, and the straps are easy to adjust. It is also very sturdy.』 『

IPhone 3G used's review (Great racer back) 『I have tons of Beyond Yoga. This racer back is very comfortable, soft&keeps you dry in your Yoga practice. I would prefer it to be just a SMIDGE longer but it is longer than a lot of Yoga tops.』
(great active wear) 『I purchased this top to wear during a isometric strength training class. I appreciate that my midriff does not show when my arms are lifted above my head. The fabric is SO soft and comfortable. I give the product 4 stars as the price is quite high for active wear.
』 『The Beyond Yoga Racerback is perfect for any yoga class. This camisole offers sleeklines and a flattering fit that works well on its own or layered with other outerwear pieces. The built-in shelf bra is supportive and the fabric is Beyond Yoga's signature ultra-soft supplex. The slightly longer length in the body is both stylish and practical. Fabric Content: 90% Supplex/10% Lycra Made in the USA!』
IPhone 3G used's review (Nice yoga mat bag but needs a longer zipper!) 『As a new yoga student, I purchased this bag to go with a mat made by the same company, figuring that the bag would be made to fit the mat perfectly. I decided on black to go more with whatever I was wearing than the color of my mat, which is hidden inside the bag anyway. The bag is sturdy and well constructed, not too big, with a strong shoulder strap for carrying it to class. Price was very reasonable compared to other bags that I considered. My only complaint is that the zipper is a little too short and I have to struggle to roll the mat just right before I can stuff it one end first into the bag. Would be a whole lot easier if the zipper was longer, still I'm happy with the bag and do use it regularly.』
(suitable&fits 1/4) 『I bought this with the 1/4" mat also from [...] They suggest that you get the bigger bag for the 1/4" mat but it's totally not necessary. Unless you have problems rolling your mat up this bag is a roomy fit for the 1/4" mat from yoga accessories.』
(Fits my super huge bag perfectly!) 『I bought this bag in hopes of housing my 1/4" thick ultra hugger mugger tapas, which is 80" long. It fits perfectly!!! So any mat that is smaller will definitely work. I ordered all black to keep clean (and to sadly match my 9 million other black accessories), and the mesh shows the chic blackberry color of my yoga mat. Very nice, feminine, and very durable. Small pocket in inside, I use for chapstick, but would most likely hold id, but not cell or anything of that size, esp. when you have a big mat in there. Worth 3x amount paid for! Highly recommended!』
(Nice quality for price) 『I wasn't expecting much for the price but was pleasantly surprised when I recieved it. It was much better that I anticipated.』
(Excellent Product) 『My husband and I recently purchased two yoga mats and mesh carrying bags. Although we had to wait two weeks to receive our products, everything was well worth waiting for! The mats are exactly what we wanted and the price was very reasonable. In our first order, one of the mats had a tear in it. The company was very responsive and immediately sent a replacement at no costs. I would highly recommend this company and its products.』 『Carry your yoga mat easily and comfortably with a zippered yoga mat bag. These bags come in a variety of great colors, and are very comfortable to carry. Made of a lightweight material, including a netted mesh area, these bags allow your mat to breathe and dry. This bag has a zippered closure and a shoulder strap. Mat bags will fit both the 1/8" and 1/4" mats.』

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (8 foot length is essential) 『The 8 foot version of this strap is great, much more usable than the 6 foot for your yoga practice. It is a really well made, sturdy strap!』
(Great strap) 『I teach several Yoga classes a day and prefer the quality of the straps with the metal buckles.』
(A little light on this yoga strap) 『I was used to the heavier gauge strap that I use at the studio where I practice. This one tends to bind and cut in a bit and is more difficult to undo.』
(A little help from your props.) 『I avoided buying a strap for the longest time, figuring I'd just use whatever was available to me at the time: jump rope, bathrobe sash, the dog's toy snake. After getting used to an "official" yoga strap in class, I finally broke down and bought one. I love it! It's so much more comfortable than my makeshift straps, and not nearly as silly looking! :oD I recommend getting a D-ring instead of the buckle ~ much easier to adjust.
I have enjoyed ordering from Hugger Mugger over the years. They are a bit slow in shipping, but their customer service and products are A+.』 『8 Foot Yoga Strap in purple. Metal D-Ring makes it easy to thread and adjust into position. Longer lengths are good for taller students and for the bound angle pose.』
IPhone 3G used's review (Great Yoga Bag!) 『I purchased this bag for a friend and she loves it. It is much larger than it appears in the photo and will fit not only the mat, but accessories and water bottle, as well. We love that it's made of recycled paper, too. It's attractive, useful, and environmentally friendly. Wonderful!!』
(Spacious gym/yoga bag) 『I love this bag! I love it even more that it is Earth-friendly :o) It fits your yoga mat and much more! Plus it's supercute and is a great price.』
(Better than Described) 『The colors are so vibrant, and the bag has a surprising texture that isn't like recycled paper at all. It's also nice and roomy so it holds all my gear neatly. I've had tons of compliments. It was inexpensive, environmentally friendly, and beautiful. Love it!』
(It is groovy) 『The bag is a bit big, but that's good--large enough to hold my yoga mat, blocks, and a jacket. Great price, I love that it's recycled.』
(Big and Clunky) 『This bag is a little awkward to carry because the material is rough and stiff. The bag itself is very oversized. It has more than enough room to pack all your yoga accessories and a towel and probably anything else you may need, but there is only one compartment, so it's hard to pile things in around your mat. I would have preferred a bag that fit my mat a lot better and was made of softer fabric, so it was easier to carry. I do like the color and the idea that it's made from recycled materials.』 『Looking for a tote that's roomy, attractive, and environmentally friendly? Look no further than this Hugger Mugger tote, which is made from playfully colored strips of recycled paper. The handsome woven bag features a tight weave that's strong enough to carry even the heaviest yoga products. Plus, the tote is notably large, with space for a mat, a block, and a strap all at once. Finally, cleaning is a breeze, as the bag's paper fiber submits to easy spot cleaning (although the company recommends against washing the bag). Fully lined in cotton muslin, the bag makes it easy to carry your mat from your home to the yoga studio.
About Hugger Mugger Sara Chambers, founder of Hugger-Mugger, was an accomplished woodworker when she came to yoga. Its tremendous impact on her health made yoga a way of life for Sara. She began developing wooden and fabric tools to help with her practice. Local teachers and students asked Sara to make things for them, and word spread. Sara continued to develop products for fellow yogis, including the company’s namesake, Hugger-Muggers, the now-famous unisex yoga shorts with a legband around the thighs to cover what’s underneath. Since the word hugger-mugger means to conceal, the catchy name Hugger-Mugger fit.
Among Hugger-Mugger's most noted designs is the Tapas Sticky Mat, which has become the yoga practice essential. Predecessor mats were not designed specifically for yoga and would deteriorate quickly with us. The Tapas Sticky Mat was the first long-term performance yoga mat and continues to set the standards for the industry.
For more than 20 years, Hugger-Mugger has been known as an innovator of technically excellent yoga products serving yoga teachers and students throughout the world. Hugger-Mugger is committed to developing products of performance, style, and comfort. The company strongly believes in the benefits of the practices of yoga and meditation.

It's ecologically low-impact, doesn't have that "new plastic" smell, and is thicker and longer than most. I like that it's got different colors on each side so that I can make one side permanently the "down" side and one the "up" side. If you're in the market for a "sticky" mat, try this one.』
