The domestic yoga mat market is heavily graded, with most of the high-end products being taken over by foreign brands, which are favored among advanced and yoga instructors, while Chinese brands occupy the beginner market with a price advantage, and their sales are among the best. Manduka is a representative of foreign high-end brands, with many fans in the yoga world, sales in more than 30 countries around the world, and its highly recognizable frog logo has become the first choice for yoga teachers. Manduka is well-known in China, and its sales and reputation are far behind other foreign yoga brands.
 
Manduka yoga mat is divided into PVC and natural rubber in terms of material, as we all know, natural rubber has good environmental protection and strong anti-slip performance, but Manduka's PVC yoga mat not only has excellent elasticity and cushioning power, but also has no loss of environmental protection and anti-slip performance at all natural rubber, the representative work is Black Mat PRO, which has been around for ten years and is known as "the best yoga mat in the world".
 
The high-profile legendary black mat belongs to the PRO series, and the PRO Lite series are both made in Germany and have passed the Oeko-Tex certification, which guarantees environmental protection and safety. Both are made of top-quality 1.4g/cm³ high-density PVC material, which has better cushioning force than ordinary PVC, and effectively protects the spine, hips, knees and elbows. According to official data, the average yoga practitioner can use it 10,000 times, even for Ashtanga practitioners who require extreme durability, Manduka can meet the requirements of its use.
 
PRO series products are heavy and inconvenient to carry, while PRO Lite is thinner and lighter than PRO, with an official price of 700 to 800 yuan. The surface of the new mat has a thin antibacterial film, which will feel that the anti-slip performance is insufficient when you use it for the first time, and you can use a detergent to scrape it lightly to shorten the run-in period. Manduka is almost the only brand on the market that offers a lifetime warranty, but only in these two ranges, which is why Black Mat is so highly regarded.
 
In addition to the above two classic series, Manduka designs different series of products for different consumer groups. The Manduka X series and welcOMe series are made of high-density PVC just like the PRO series, the Manduka X series is designed for professional athletes, and the welcOMe series is suitable for beginners. The eKO series, eKO Lite series, and eKO Superlite series are all made of natural rubber with a three-layer structure, which is softer than PRO and more suitable for on-the-ground yoga. The eQua Hot series and GRP series are prepared for high temperature yoga, with an open-cell structure on the surface, which wicks moisture and absorbs sweat, and has a stronger anti-slip ability, but the durability is relatively average.
 
Due to the fact that domestic technology and standards cannot meet the requirements, Manduka has not set up a factory in China, but there are special agencies in China, and e-commerce platforms also have authorized stores. It is worth noting that the domestic "frog" belongs to a counterfeit brand, and the products sold are not Manduka's products, the price is low, and the quality cannot be compared with it.
