Okay, so I’ve been seeing these bando yoga mats everywhere lately. They’re super cute, with fun prints and bright colors. I finally decided to get one and try it out for myself.
First off, I ordered the mat online. It was pretty easy. I chose a design I liked – it’s got these big, colorful flowers all over it – and added it to my cart. Then I put in my shipping info and paid with my credit card. I waited for around a week, and it finally showed up at my door!
I unboxed it right away. The mat was rolled up tight and wrapped in plastic. I took off the plastic and unrolled the mat. It was a little stiff at first, but that’s normal for a new yoga mat. I laid it out on the floor in my living room and got down into my first downward dog.
- The mat felt pretty good under my hands and feet. It’s got a nice, grippy texture.
- It’s also pretty thick, which is great for cushioning my knees and elbows.
- I did a few more poses, like warrior II and triangle, and the mat stayed put. No slipping or sliding around.
I used the mat for a full yoga session – about 45 minutes. I worked up a good sweat, but the mat didn’t get slippery. That’s a big plus for me because I tend to sweat a lot during my workouts. After my session, I wiped down the mat with a damp cloth and let it air dry. It dried pretty quickly.
Final thoughts?
I’m really happy with my new bando yoga mat. It’s comfortable, it’s grippy, and it’s super cute. Plus, it makes me actually want to do yoga! If you’re looking for a new yoga mat, I’d definitely recommend checking these out.
