About this item
- 100% RECYCLED 5MM YOGA MAT: SugaMats are made entirely out of recycled surfing wetsuits. They are closed loop - fully recyclable at the end of their useful lives
- MADE IN THE USA: Unlike most mats which are made abroad, SugaMats are manufactured to the highest environmental standards. They also have a lower carbon footprint by being made locally.
- 72" x 25" x 5mm thick
- GRIPPIER THAN CONVENTIONAL MATS: Due to their unique composition, SugaMats perform better than any mat on the market. We have built the SugaMat to specific tolerances of density, tackiness, elasticity, durability, and liquid permeability and retention. We are confident that you'll dig every asana on your SugaMat.
- CLOSED CELL FOAM: Unlike most mats, SugaMats are composed of closed-cell foam, so they don't sponge up dirt, dust & bacteria from yoga studio floors. This also makes them easy to clean.
- 5MM THICK: Dense foam provides crucial cushioning for those high-compression asanas (like side crow/parshva bakasana or hands-free lotus headstand/mukta hasta shirshasana).
- HAND WASH Only, Hang Dry in SHADE!

Product Description
Suga manufactures premium quality yoga mats in the USA from 100% recycled wetsuits.
ABOUT SUGA
Suga was born out of necessity by a lifelong surfer and yoga practitioner who was seeking a solution to an enduring problem. While surfers enjoy a unique bond with the natural environment, we struggle to reduce our environmental footprint. Nondegradable neoprene wetsuits present a unique challenge.
Suga worked extensively with engineering experts to recycle these petrochemical based landfill clogging neoprene monsters into highly functional instruments of yogic bliss.
Introducing the worlds first 100% recycled yoga mat.
SugaMats are made entirely out of recycled surfing wetsuits. They're also closed-loop - fully recyclable by Suga at the end of their useful lives. Other brands claim to be 'eco' or 'recyclable' but are anything but.
SugaMats are built to specific tolerances of density, elasticity, and durability, to be grippier than other mats.
SugaMats are manufactured in the USA to the highest environmental and labor standards, unlike our competitors.

The negatives... unfortunately being lightweight it moves around on the floor. Another drawback is that it does not give as much grip as my lululemon so my hands slide a bit in down dog and a few other poses. I do not like to use a towel so for me it is a drawback. Also the lexture of the mat is not smooth so it feels a little rough on the elbows and chin, beware of that if you have sensitive skin. Also it might feel a little too thin for some people.
Overall I would say I am more happy with it than I am not. Lately I have been alternating between the mats. It is worth trying if you are looking for a mat that is environmentally friendly.
I saw the comment about crumbles, cleaned it with a microfiber cloth before using it and didn't have any issues. I did find it has a slight scent but it seems to being airing out and the smell is going away.
Super happy with this purchase and will recommend the brand to others!
