Manduka eKO Lite 71" Yoga Mat 4mm

A lighter version of our new recycled eKO yoga mat, with improved grip on the natural rubber top layer, and a cushioned ride.Built sustainably for the mindful yogi, our updated eKO lite® features an improved Catch-Grip™ surface texture for impressive traction in wet and dry conditions, combined with our Responsive Ride™ layer for a cushioned, springy ride. Sustainably harvested and manufactured from recycled non-Amazon harvested tree rubber, the eKO lite supports both your practice and our planet.All eKO series yoga mats have a closed-cell surface, which will never absorb moisture. Because of this, if you are warm/sweaty at all, the yoga mat will feel slippery, so we always recommend pairing it with one of our hand towels to absorb moisture and provide extra traction, or to apply our Yoga Grip Gel during practice. For hot yoga, we recommend a mat towel for full mat coverage.99% Latex-free. Not recommended for those with Latex sensitivities. Crafted in Taiwan from natural tree rubber.

Allow the cleaner to sit for 5 minutes and then gently use a clean cloth to wipe mat dry before rolling or using.We do not recommend cleaning your mat with a garden hose, vacuuming it, or placing it in a bathtub, shower, or washing machine—doing so may damage your eKO mat beyond repair. Do not leave the mat exposed to excessive amounts of sunlight as it will cause mat to oxidize and fade. Do not use any type of soap for cleaning, as it will compromise the performance and integrity of the mat. Do not use the salt method to break in or clean eKO mats.
