I needed a new yoga mat and stated asking the girls in my hot yoga class's how they liked theirs. The most popular was this exact mat! There was a few people who had the mat for 4+ years and it was still in good working condition for our hot classes. It absorbs the sweat! It’s not slippery at all, I even stopped using my yoga towel. I feel my knees are more protected using this mat. I just love it lululemon.com
