Hey Mindi,
I wouldn’t be surprised if you see that Pure Mat in Australia shortly. Were on slightly different product time line in North America and get a mix of product you have seen and product you will likely see a little later. I’d recommend signing up for the product notifications if you aren’t already. That way you’ll keep in the loop with all of the new product hitting the online store each week. You can find the sign up option right below the main photo here: http://www.lululemon.com.au/

ok, so I tried the new pure mat. Sorry to say that it is def not as grippy as “the mat” it feels just like the manduka all natural eko edition. I sweat a LOT and I have tried just about every mat out there, if your hands slip on most mats, then they will probably slip on this pure one.
No worries though, just get “the mat”… the grippiest mat on the market!

I so need one of these. I had The Mat down on my to buy list so might have to make it a Pure Mat instead!

Hi Christine,
The Pure Mat does contain latex, it’s a great question as the mat does contain natural rubber.

Hi David,
I don’t normally use a towel for my Power classes however I do use one for a hot class. I find that the Pure Mat is grippier so I would say you could go towel less in your power class.

Hi Atala,
We sure do ship to Mexico from our international website here: http://bit.ly/Wr3z0I

Hi Lindsay,
I do find that moisture does absorb into the Pure mat like the Mat.

Is it as absorbent as The Mat? I love The Mat because I can use it in my Bikram class without a towel.

I’m super excited for this. Just curious how well it will hold up with Hot Power Yoga practices.. My “the Mat” now is requiring a towel over it after a year of use..

Hi Sammi,
The mat is starting to appear at our local stores and I imagine we’ll see the Pure Mat online shortly!

Hi Mary, Jenae and Jeffrey,
I find the Pure Mat has a ‘stickier’ feel to it so the grip is firm during your downward dogs.

Hi Nikki,
I too loved the lines on my mat and while it’s not a feature we’re seeing on current styles, I’ll share it’s something you’d like to see again.

Is it more grippy than “the mat”, less grippy, or just as grippy? The mat is the most grippy mat I know of.. Inquiring minds want to know!

Lululemon mats need alignment lines again

To keep your bodys alignment in check and to also notice any tendencies of being out of alignment,

I dont understand why they took a step back and got rid of the line

My old lulu mat had it
and going through my yoga teacher training, I now have my permanent marker lines drawn onto my mat…

Is it just as grippy as The Mat? Also does it produce sweat angels like The Mat?

Is it good for no slipping in down dog? That is a constant problem for me – when my down dog is properly wide my hands slip, and I HATE it! I have “The Mat” which is practically perfect in every other way, but I might pick this up too if you think it’s “grippier” than ” The Mat!’

Does this mat contain latex? I am a nurse and have noticed over the past several years that more and more people are becoming allergic to latex. In the hospital setting we have to be careful of anything made of rubber, since this mat is made of all natural rubber it just made me wonder.
