This sleeve was more than enough room for me Gaiam yoga mat. The height is good though you need to put the botto side in before putting the top in completely and then the mat fits in width wise easily. Great cover for carrying the mat around all day in between classes or whatever.

This bag is good and gets the job done in holding your yoga mat. I have a 1/4" thick mat (1/4 Inch Ultra Thick Yoga Mat) so it's pretty bulky and at first it was difficult to fit in the bag. Although after a couple weeks I can tell it has stretched out a bit so it is easier to put my mat in and out of the bag. The strap is convenient and the mesh lets the mat breathe which is nice. Overall, this was a good buy and I have no regrets.

My mother just started taking yoga, and she's not tech savvy, so I bought her the 1/4" mat by Yoga Accessories. The description for this mat said ideal for the 1/4", so I bought it. My mother said the bag was too short, so now I'm returning it.

This yoga mat is awesome for the cheap price! Material isn't the best quality but it is very durable. Straps are adjustable! Definitely long enough for carrying around comfortably. Recommendation: If you have a 1/8" mat, buy the regular-sized yoga mat bag. This "large" version of the bag fits my 1/4" mat perfectly/comfortably. Happy with the purchase for sure. Namaste!

I'd call the pink more of a dirty rose pink (if that makes sense) vs a bright bubble gum pink like it looks in the picture.
Either way, it does the job, and the price isn't too expensive compared to what I've seen in retail stores!

I ordered one pair of these just to test them before I bought more. They arrived today and I have already ordered two more! They are a lovely lightweight stretch jersey material that is super comfortable. They do fit quite snuggly so order up a size as others have suggested. I am six feet tall and have a 34 inch inseam with flats and these are the perfect length. I also love that they are not low rise as are most other yoga pants. The waistband is a very generous (over six inches) width so you can fold down for less coverage, or leave as is for more coverage. I ordered the heather gray color and it provides nice coverage as to panty pattern/color but you do there is VPL so keep that in mind if you're wearing these in public. I also washed (warm water) and dried (regular heat) these before wearing and had no shrinkage issues that other reviewers have suggested might happen. All in all I am incredibly pleased! These are my new "go to" pant to wear around the house and yard.

These rip easily and they're so thin they're see through. You can see your underwear through them, not just the lines but actual design. I got complemented on my hello kitty underwear when I wore these to class. In certain lighting, you can even see my very small amount of cellulite through them. Spend a little more and get the "So Low" brand yoga pants, they're so much better and will last longer.

These pants were just what I was looking for - they are comfortable for yoga, and are flattering on the figure. My one complaint, echoed by other reviewers, is that they run extremely small. I wear a size 10 pant and based on the other reviews ordered an extra large. The pants are comfortable, but are quite tight in the rear and thighs. Not too tight, but these hug a lot closer than other workout pants I have owned. Overall I am happy with them!

Fantastic pants. I have three pairs and want more.
Sizing: Order up a size, they run VERY small.
Maintenance: A pair shrunk on me, so I line dry them now.

I ordered two of these headbands and received them in the mail enclosed in a business size envelope (less environmental impact and I must admit the items was not damaged). I tried one and found it to be thinner in width and material and less able to hold my hair back than another brand of comparably priced yoga headband that I bought at the same time on Amazon. I returned them in the business envelope it was shipped to me in.

Cheap, thin, flimsy material that curls along all edges after trying on just once. Literally like a nylon stocking to put around your head, this is just a waste. Not even worth the hassle, shipping and restock fee to try and return, went immediately in the trash.

By M. Keith
I bought these headbands because I was looking for something cheaper than the lululemon headbands everyone at my yoga studio seems to wear. The headbands stay in place even when I'm sweating. (This could probably differ based on hair type, though.) They hold up well in the wash. No complaints!

The headband is fine. Comfortable to wear and not too tight (I have a normal to slightly large size of head). That said, it does not stop my hair from falling all over the place when I do downward dog, which is annoying. Also it does not really absorb sweat that well (I do hot yoga).

By Lone Writer
I couldn't tell from the photo that the edges are rolled and the seams are unfinished, but the headband is snug and stays put without slipping. I liked it enough to buy three. They are easy to wash in a lingerie bag and air dry. Recommended.

Firm foam provides support but I removed one star because surface is perfectly smooth and therefore provides no grip. Whether this makes a difference would depend on the use you intend it for.

This yoga wedge works very well. The size is perfect and really helps my wrists (I have tendonitis). As your wrists get stronger you can move towards the thinner edge of the wedge. The only thing that I could improve about this wedge is that it can be a little bit slippery in some poses, such as an upward bow or wheel pose.

First, the blocks are *not* 4 lbs as advertised the in title. If you look at the specs you will see that the shipping weight is 1.8lbs for both (I should have looked at the specs first before ordering) When I received the blocks, the first thing I noticed was their lack of weight.
Second, the blocks smell strongly of bad smelling chemicals (I am not the only reviewer to notice this, but apparently the only one offended by it). I took the shrinkwrap off of one and had to immediately place it outside because of the horrible odor.
I will try to return these items - I will report back what happens with the return. Based on the seller's return policy, my gut feeling is that they won't refund the shipping and will charge me a 35% restocking fee since one of these items is opened, even though I believe they are defective (i.e. smell like chemicals) and not as advertised (i.e. not 4 lb). We'll see.

Besides using these for yoga, I've found that you can place these under your knees and do push-ups with them. It's great for those who are struggling to do push-ups in the beginning. It helps you achieve maximum reps in a set. When you get stronger, you can eventually do them without the yoga blocks, and use them for yoga. A real bone saver.

There is absolutely no reason to pay more for a set of yoga blocks. These work great; they do exactly what they are supposed to do. More expensive blocks won't do anything better than these do. I'd buy these again.

I practice Power Yoga that causes so much sweating during the class that mat towel is requirement to avoid slippage. Even with mat towel, mat cleansing after practice is definitely recommended. When I started purchasing towels Manduka was one of the brands I stuck with. Soon enough, I wanted to treat my yoga mat(s) with good cleaning solution, so when I came across Manduka brand yoga mat cleanser, I could not pass it on. Great news is that Manduka stands by its brand reputation. I bought cleanser with lemongrass smell and it cleans my mat wonderfully while leaving a pleasant fragrance that lasts. I am sure I have found the right brand of cleanser for my yoga mats (I definitely have more than one!). Seller shipped product quickly.

Havent tried out the mat yet, i'm airing it out in the garage, but it certainly feels non slip. Also, the product description says "2 foam blocks allow for safe positioning and support", but it only comes with one. Everything seems sturdy and the bag is really nice. I think it'll be a great mat for a beginner like me.

Nice towel. I love the color and the symbol on it. I do however feel like it does bunch up at times during my practice. It adheres to the mat fairly well to keep me from slipping, but I find myself having to straighten it our more often than I would like. It washes well and fits my large mat quite nicely.

I recently began taking hot yoga classes. Immediately I realized that using a towel over my mat would not suffice because it kept slipping as well as having me hold back due to an unstable grip. I saw many of the people there with a Yogitoes towel. I ordered mine through Amazon because it was about 20.00 less than at the Shala where I take my classes. I LOVE my yogitoes and cannot imagine anyone practicing yoga w/out it. I highly recommend this product.

I am completely in love with my Yogitoes mat! Before purchasing this mat, I bought gaiam gloves (too painful) and a Manduka mat (which I slid around on more than my REGULAR mat!)...and was thinking that I would NEVER be able to practice yoga without sliding around all over the place. Now, I am able to do EVERYTHING without a bit of sliding. And it's cute too! Buy this if you have the tendency to get sweaty hands during yoga. LOVE IT!!!!!!

I have been practicing hot yoga for almost a year; at least 4x a week. I am also a bigger guy who sweats up a storm and I was finally interested in purchasing a 'pro' mat and towel versus my beach towels. "80/20 polyester-nylon blend is super absorbent"....It was hard to tell on the photos but this 'towel' is SUPER THIN and might be highly absorbent but maybe only for a 85lb grandma. Ten minutes into my class the entire towel was completely saturated and at the end of the class when I rolled the towel up with my mat, a steady stream of water poured out of my roll. IMHO this is intended mostly for hatha or people who barely sweat and I am disappointed they try and market this as a HIGH ABSORBENT yoga towel. Not true. Gonna try the Manduka next.

Wow! I'm very impressed with the quality of this one. I don't know how I hesitated so much in getting it (...the debate of brands get stucked in my head). I'm not married to any brand for yoga props. My mat is Gaiam, blocks are Hugger Mugger and now, a Manduka yoga strap. But this one: It is a REALLY good yoga strap! Actually, the best one I ever seen. I also own a Gaiam one, 6ft but this one is definitely far superior. Very sturdy with nice soft feel to it. Definitely thicker that Gaiam's. The metal buckle is super safe & strong but easy to handle. It's just how a yoga strap should be! Plus, the red color is beautiful. Top quality. Worth every penny!

I have been doing yoga in Hard tail pants for about 12-14 years. I love the way they fit and have bought pair after pair. Yesterday in class, I noticed that a student next to me wearing black pants did a forward fold and her pants were fairly see through. When I got home, I thought - these are not cheap pants, I am sure that I am fine but maybe I'll check. Not only could you see skin tone, you could make out every detail of the lace on my underwear. (The pants are only 6 months old.) I am absolutely mortified and won't be able to wear any of my Hard Tails ever again. If you love the Hard Tails, make sure to bend over in front of a mirror before you go in public!

I saw other women around town wearing these, and bought a pair in black for my girlfriend as a gift. O.M.G. do they look good on her!!! Comfortable, stylish, versatile, durable and sexy - I'm not sure what more you could ask from an item of clothing. She loves them because they're great at the gym, around the house, and in a pinch, with the right shoes and top, can be dressed up nicely enough to wear out and around without feeling like a slob. Very soft, high-quality, nice weight fabric, and very well made.
She's 5'-4" and 110lbs, and the size "small" fits her like they were custom made for her, length and everything. We'll be getting more in other colors...
Update 3/1/10: We're up to 3 pairs in 3 different colors, and they're all awesome. They look, fit, feel, and perform great.

I liked these pant when I first got them. They are sewn really well. Usually that is the first thing I look for with quality workout clothing. I also have a degree in clothing design so I'm a little over attentive to construction details. With that said these pant are nicely made. Solid even flat stiching, nice quality wieght fabric (cotton blend lycra)not to thin. Okay, now for the not so great. For the price I would expect a gusset crotch. Also I know when clothes are made of cotton it is almost impossible to find a fabric that doesn't fade unfortunately you also expect that clothing companies would take into account the fact that these pants are made for people who use them primarily for fitness purposes. I run, do kickboxing, step aerobics, lift wieghts, hike, and do ballet in them and no I don't want to hand wash them in cold water, hang dry, and lightly press them when I know that I'm just going to sweat in them. Okay, so they fade a little, oh and they are uber long (I'm only five foot tall), but they truly are constructed to give you a great looking backside. These pants would be the best if they made them with the gusset crotch and out of suplex, but overall really comfortable pants that make your butt look great.
***Felt I had to add on to my previous review. These pants do fade when you wash them. They still hold up pretty good but after a few washings they did fade to a much lighter color.

My husband, just one day, decided he wanted toe socks with the no-slip bottoms, go figure. I searched all over and found these. Not exactly what he wanted (he was hoping for more of a slipper sock material, these are lighter weight)but he's been wearing them and seems happy. They wash nice and didn't shrink. Glad he's happy.

These socks are really comfy and fit well (I wear a size 7-7 1/2 shoe and I bought the small). THe little no-slip dots on the bottom work very well, but the problem is that they start coming off really quickly - within 5-6 uses, the dots on the ball of my foot and big toe are almost completely gone. They are great to start and a good stopgap, but I'm going to look for a more permanent solution.

I've been doing Vinyasa yoga for about 18 months, once a week. I purchased this product hoping that it would help keep my feet from sliding on the yoga mat. It does just that rather well, but unfortunately the socks also twist around the sole of my feet as I am doing the yoga, rendering them useless after about 30 minutes of working out. Would be a great product if they stayed in place, it could be just me with my weird feet... definitely worth a try.

I ordered the size small, and my feet tend to be size 8 or 8.5; in running shoes I'm an 8.5. The small is very snug, but if they weren't snug, they'd certainly slip and skid around on my feet. I couldn't imagine doing yoga or pilates without these. It would be like spinning without bike shorts. My only regret is that they probably will need to be replaced in 6 months of 1-2/week use; I had hoped they'd last a full year, but then again, I'm overweight, so you may wear yours out in less time!

This had the best price I could find anywhere on a 1/4" thick mat, so despite the couple of negative reviews, I went for it. And it paid off, the mat is a full 1/4" thick, it doesn't smell funny, and it's plenty sticky, except for when your hands get sweaty. I ordered a second (in hot pink) for my 6 year old!

this is a great yoga mat for a great price, far better than the standard retail mat.
the larger footprint is welcome, as I have been using a significantly smaller, thinner mat.
this is practically lush by comparison.
the orange color is great, truly invigorating.

This is a very nice yoga mat. Great size gives extra space for me as a newbie. After opening the packaging, the initial smell was a bit overwhelming. We unrolled the mat and left it outside for 2 days and the smell dissipated. Great mat at a great price.

I chose this because the reviews said it was thicker than standard mats, which is what I need due to tender bones/joints. It met my expectations in this regard - not too hard, not too squishy. It seems to need a "recovery" time after being compressed (or stood on), so make sure you don't store it under heavy objects.
There was a bit of a synthetic smell when I opened the packaging (which I hate) but after I aired it out for a while, the smell was completely gone. Even during Bikram class, the heat did not bring out any foul odours while I was face down on the mat.
The only problem I had was that my feet would slip during Bikram class, and I wasn't even sweating that much. I will try putting a towel on top.

I tried this mat because of the price, and I was very disappointed. First, when you're in a pose, your mat sinks so it takes the shape of your hands or feet or whatever is on the mat. Then, when you pull your hand/foot/etc.. out of the mat for your next pose, there is now an imprint of your hand/foot/etc... It takes a few seconds to rebound to its original shape, but it is still annoying. Second, when the mat sinks, it becomes very thin, like when I'm kneeling on the ground, it feels like there is no padding at all and I'm kneeling on the floor. The only good thing about this was that it was cheap. If you are looking for a good high-quality mat, try the Jade Yoga mats. Those are fabulous and worth the expense.
