Yoga was never
really something that I thought I would get in to. I always thought
it was, for lack of a better word, hocus pocus. It really is just
fancy stretching, I never thought that it was going to help me. But,
then I was lucky enough to receive a yoga mat to review and I
absolutely fell in love with it. It's not that it helps so much with
losing weight but it is very relaxing and can help with muscle aches.
The only problem I
had was that I did not have a yoga mat bag! Yes, my yoga mat has a
little carrier strap on it but it never worked all that well and
usually just ended up slipping. So, I was excited to receive this
bag. It would make it a lot easier to carry my yoga mat and I
wouldn't have to worry about the strap slipping and dropping it in
the middle of the sidewalk or something. When I got it, I was
impressed as soon as I opened it! It's very nice and a lot sturdier
than I thought it would be.
However, as you can
see in one of my pictures, I have an oversized yoga mat so I was
worried it simply wasn't going to fit in the bag. But, after some
adjusting, I did get it to fit! I even had a little extra room to put
my hot yoga towel inside and even with all my pulling and tugging,
the bag didn't shown a single sign of letting loose. The zipper is a
little hard to pull up and down when you have the bag really full but
it didn't seem stressed. It's a nice quality zipper that I'm sure
will last a while as long as you don't purposely try to destroy it.
The only issue I can
see with this bag is that it doesn't really have any ventilation. For
regular yoga, that's not such a big deal. But, if you're someone like
me who tries to do hot yoga, it can end up with a very stinky bag.
Even if that does happen, though, the bag is washable! Now, I would
suggest being a little careful, use cold water and hang to dry so it
doesn't shrink but it will be as good as new after that! I would
definitely give this bag five stars! It's very sturdy, easy to clean
and can even hold an oversized yoga mat! On top of that, it also has
a very cute design that anyone would enjoy! It definitely gets my
recommendation!

ReplyDeleteI have several yoga mats. A bag is so necessary to keep them clean (in my house anyway). This is a really pretty bag, and most likely other people wouldn't have the same bag if you go to yoga class. I think this is a pretty and unique bag. :)
ReplyDeleteCute bag!!
