Gaiam Classic Print 4mm vs JadeYoga Harmony 2.0 68" Yoga Mat Comparison


Gaiam Classic Print 4mm
The Gaiam Classic Print is the archetypal sticky PVC mat, and at 4mm and 2.1 pounds it is the thinnest and lightest Gaiam we carry. The textured surface delivers the reliable dry grip PVC is known for, and the 68 by 24 inch cut is Gaiam's standard size, sold in a rotating set of printed colorways. It is latex-free, made without the six most restricted phthalates and covered by Gaiam's lifetime guarantee, though Gaiam itself warns that printed mats arrive with a strong odor and need two or three days of airing out.
JadeYoga Harmony 2.0 68"
The JadeYoga Harmony 2.0 updates the original Harmony with tougher natural rubber, improved grip, FSC and OEKO-TEX certifications, and production powered by renewable energy in Spain. Its open-cell 4.8mm surface provides strong dry and sweaty traction with moderate cushioning, and the mat is available in 68- and 74-inch lengths. Like other natural-rubber mats, it is relatively heavy, has an initial rubber scent, contains latex, and should be kept away from direct sunlight.
