Product Description For taller yogis or those using a longer mat, the extra long SKIDLESS yoga towel is a full foot longer than the standard mat-size SKIDLESS yoga towel. These towels are specifically designed for yoga practice to prevent slipping. They are lightweight, super-absorbent, and accented with tiny clear rubber dots which grip to your yoga mat or to the floor, enabling you to have a steadier practice. Since they are ultra absorbent and non-skid, they're perfect for Bikram hot yoga! An added benefit of SKIDLESS yoga towels is putting a hygienic layer between you and your yoga mat, as well as heightening awareness of weight distribution between hands, fingers, feet, and toes. These towels are easy to care for as they can be machine washed and dried.
The towels are made from 80% polyester and 20% nylon, with all organic dyes. The SKIDLESS nubs are completely earth friendly, are made from silicon, and contain no latex. SKIDLESS towels are also great to travel with -- leave your yoga mat behind and pack a SKIDLESS towel instead! Goes perfectly with a Yoga Mat Harness Strap.

This towel is amazing! November 30, 2008 If you take Bikram yoga you need this towel! It is big enough to cover your whole mat and it does not slip at all during class. It is very easy to take care of and it holds up nicely even after multiple washings. I do not recommend putting it in the dryer tho always hang dry this otherwise the little dot on the end comes off in the heat.
good work! October 3, 2008 I screwed up this order when trying to get it delivered to a freinds address; they quickly cancelled and re-issued it, ensuring it made it on time
Good work
Best product!! great for hot yoga August 23, 2008 Loved this so much I just bought another!!!! Great for hot yoga or any type of yoga to add comfort and a little extra grip to your mat. get one today.
spoiled by this wonderful mat May 19, 2008 I wish I could afford another three of these. I do bikram and warm-room flow yoga and attend class at least 4 times/week, this mat is just about perfect for both. I would use this mat every day if I didn't sweat so much that it absolutely requires washing between uses. I think by "skidless" they mean more that it wont slip off your mat vs. you wont slip off of it. That said, I do find that once I've worked up a little sweat, or if I sprinkle a little water on it at the start of class, I wont slip out of a down dog.
Pros: - covers my entire yoga mat - doesn't wrinkle or buckle like a towel - very absorbant - light weight - machine washable and dryer safe - comes in many nice colors
Cons: - prohibitively expensive (I got mine for $49, but now even the regular-sized ones are going for $55) - big size currently only comes in two colors, I like the extra length - can be a little tough to hold those first few down dogs if it's not damp
Towels just don't compare, I love this mat.
Lets me do trikanasana with ease, if I use the towel dots up. April 24, 2008 Trikanasana was always my most feared posture in Bikram, in fact I hurt my hamstring several years ago when my foot slipped out from under me in this posture. With the Yogitoes towel, which I use upside-down (dots up) on a Manduka mat, I feel secure.
I know the dots are supposed to keep the towel from slipping on a mat, but the Manduka mat already has that covered, so I use the dots to keep my feet from slipping on the towel. I drizzle a little water from my water bottle for the length of the towel where I'm going to stand for this series, and I have great traction.
Now some may argue that one should be strong and balanced enough to do this posture on any surface. I have heard such sentiments uttered. That's fine, but you have to get to that point of strength and balance somehow, and until you do it's probably better not to be hurting yourself. Thus we have straps and blocks and other adaptive tools, and I see this mat as another adaptive tool.
It's also great to have a dedicated yoga towel. I don't have to coordinate usage of my regular towels or beach towels, this one is only for yoga and that helps when things are busy. These are less linty than normal towels, and also so thin that they fit right in the mat bag with my big old Manduka mat and 2 hand towels.
