Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the eKO Series designed for?

The eKO Series is designed for practitioners who want a mat that feels naturally responsive under their hands and feet. Made from natural rubber, it offers a unique combination of dry grip, gentle rebound, and tactile connection that many practitioners prefer for everyday practice, whether you're flowing through familiar sequences or moving through dynamic transitions. 

For those who value thoughtfully designed materials alongside performance, the eKO Series is crafted from natural rubber with over 30% recycled content. 

What makes the eKO Series different from other yoga mats?

The eKO Series is thoughtfully designed to create a responsive connection between you and your practice. Made from natural rubber, it offers a unique combination of dry grip, gentle rebound, and a tactile feel that helps you move with confidence through everything from steady holds to dynamic transitions like jump backs and step-throughs. 

Its textured surface provides dependable traction without feeling overly sticky, allowing you to move naturally while maintaining control. For practitioners who value both performance and thoughtfully designed materials, the eKO Series delivers a practice experience that feels as good as it performs. 

What does the eKO Series' closed-cell surface mean?

Think of the difference between water on glass and water on a sponge. One keeps moisture on the surface. The other absorbs it below the surface. The eKO Series features a closed-cell surface, which helps keep moisture on the surface rather than allowing it to be absorbed into the mat. 

This makes the mat easy to clean after practice while supporting consistent performance over time. Because the eKO Series is made from natural rubber, regular care and avoiding prolonged sun exposure will help preserve its appearance and performance. 

How is the eKO Series different from the PRO Series?

Both the eKO Series and PRO Series are thoughtfully designed to support different practice preferences. 

The eKO Series is made from natural rubber, offering medium support, dependable dry grip, a responsive feel, and a tactile connection that many practitioners prefer for everyday yoga practice and dynamic transitions. 

The PRO Series features a high-density construction that provides a stable, supportive foundation. It's an excellent choice for practitioners who prefer firm support and is backed by Manduka's Lifetime Guarantee

Whether you prefer the responsive feel of natural rubber or the stable feel of a high-density mat, both are thoughtfully designed to support your practice. 

Which eKO mat is right for me?

Each mat in the eKO Series is made from natural rubber and delivers the responsive feel, dependable dry grip, and tactile connection the collection is known for. The right choice depends on where and how you practice. 

The eKO Mat offers the most cushion in the collection, making it a great choice for practitioners who prefer additional comfort and support for everyday yoga practice. 

The eKO Lite provides the same responsive practice experience in a slimmer profile, making it a versatile option for practitioners who want a balance of cushioning and portability. Its lighter weight makes it easy to carry between home and the studio. 

The eKO SuperLite Travel Mat is the lightest and most packable option in the collection. Designed to fold for travel, it's easy to take on the go while still providing the natural rubber feel the eKO Series is known for. 

Whether you prioritize additional cushion, everyday versatility, or foldability, every eKO mat is thoughtfully designed to support your practice. 

How should I care for my eKO Series mat?

Because the eKO Series is made from natural rubber, regular care helps preserve its appearance and performance over time. 

After each practice, wipe the surface with Manduka's Natural Rubber Yoga Mat Restore or a clean, damp cloth, then allow it to air dry completely before rolling or storing. 

Like many natural rubber products, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can dry the material over time, affecting its appearance and performance. Store your mat in a cool, dry place when not in use.
