Short answer?

How this is made

AMAZING yoga mat! All of the other ones I tried kept falling apart and they felt like cheap plastic material. This one, however feels so solid and so natural - the top layer is cork material and it feels so natural compared to MANY other yoga mats I had in the past. Alena26 · dickssportinggoods.com
