I really like this mat! I tend to use the darker side. I've noticed that it does have a really strong rubber/chemical smell but I'm assuming it will dissapate after more usage. For now, I tend to attach it to the outside of my duffle/bag or wrap it in a bag so that my clothes don't take on that smell.
Awesome Caressa, glad you love it! Yes, like all natural rubber products it does have a rubber odor. That will dissipate and good idea to wrap in clothes. Enjoy!
I still am glad to have the insurance for my bought item. Great idea. π
Love this mat - itβs so light and so easy to travel with. Great to do yoga on in my hotel room.
so happy you love it, happy travels!
