Mat Thickness & Length Differences
Thickness
Due to the different needs and preferences, our mats are available in four different thicknesses: 2mm, 3.5mm, 4.5mm, and 6mm. Need a visual? The image below should help.
2mm - Travel
Our "travel" mat is super thin and light, it is meant for far away travel as there is not much cushion. Ideally it is for those who want to take their yoga mat to new adventures by traveling and don't want to carry the extra weight. Ready to take your practice with you? This thickness is currently available in our Essentials Mat and Chakras Alignment Mat.
3.5mm - Commute
We call this thickness "commute", it is a standard thickness and slightly supportive. It is one of our thinner main standard cushions. This mat is perfect if you don’t want a very heavy weight and a lot of padding.
4.5mm - Standard Thick
Our most popular standard size. It provides a nice cushioning and great support and can provide a comfortable surface on the bones and joints. It is a perfect balance of cushioning without allowing the wrists to overextend/sink into the cushion. Our 4.5mm thickness is now available in our X-Wide Essential Cork Mat that adds an extra 4 inches in width.
6mm - Extra Thick
Thicker than average; it is highly cushioning. Perfect for those with bone or joint pain and are truly uncomfortable unless they have a lot of cushioning. Please be aware this mat can get pretty heavy, however all our mats will include a carry strap. This thickness is currently available in the Essential Cork Mat, Tree of Life Alignment Cork Mat and our best-selling Botanicals Cork Mat.
