Manduka PRO Lite Terra 4.7mm

The Manduka PRO Lite Terra pairs the slimmer dimensions of the PRO Lite with 20% recycled materials. Its 4.7mm high-density PVC construction gives stable, firm cushioning in a 4.6-pound package that is easier to carry than the PRO Terra. The closed-cell surface blocks moisture and bacteria, the proprietary dot-pattern base grips the floor, and the mat is backed by a lifetime guarantee. It may need time to break in and can feel slick when wet. A 79-inch long version is also available for $124.

Lululemon The Mat 3mm

Lululemon The Mat 3mm keeps the reversible, sweat-ready construction of the 5mm model in a lighter 3.87-pound package. Its smooth polyurethane top absorbs moisture for high-sweat grip, while the FSC-certified natural-rubber side adds textured traction for drier practice. The slimmer profile is easier to carry and gives closer floor feedback but provides less cushioning than The Mat 5mm. It contains latex, can have an initial rubber smell, and should be dried before rolling and stored out of direct sunlight.
