Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our yoga gear and performance apparel.
How do I 'break in' my Manduka PRO series mat?
The best way to break in your mat is through regular practice, but you can speed up the process by applying a sea salt scrub to the surface, letting it sit for 24 hours, and wiping it off with a damp cloth.
Which yoga mat is right for me?
The PRO series offers maximum cushion and durability, the eKO series provides natural rubber grip, and the PROlite is ideal for yogis on the go.
How do I clean my yoga mat?
We recommend using our Botanical Cleaner for all mat types. Avoid soaking your mat or using harsh detergents that can break down the materials.
Are Manduka mats eco-friendly?
Yes, our PRO series is OEKO-TEX certified and emissions-free, while our eKO series is made from biodegradable, non-Amazon harvested natural tree rubber.
Does the Manduka PRO mat have a lifetime guarantee?
Yes, Manduka guarantees the PRO, PROlite, and PRO Travel yoga mats to be free of manufacturer defects and to last a lifetime with proper care.
Can I use the eKO mat if I have a latex allergy?
The eKO series is 99% latex-free; however, because it is made from natural rubber, we recommend the PRO series for those with severe latex sensitivities.
