FAQs

1. What’s the difference between Pro, Dotted, and Lined Grip Mats?

Specification-wise, they are all the same. They only differ on the design and alignment markings. See guidelines of each design below.

2. Can I choose the affirmation on my mat?

If you choose based on the alignment markings first, then no. The affirmations are fixed per design. Each design has 4 different affirmations that you can see on the product page.

You can also choose the affirmation first by using the “Choose Affirmation” filter on the sidebar of our shop page and select the mat that resonates with you the most.

3. Does it come with a bag?

Yes! Every order of the Sumati Grip Mat comes with a free bag. Our mats easily absorb moisture and stains so it’s important to secure it at all times. Our yoga bags are originally designed and made locally with water-resistant material. It can be used as a shoulder bag or a backpack and matches the color of your mat.

4. What are they made of?

Our mats are made from 100% biodegradable natural tree rubber (base) and eco-friendly polyurethane (top surface).

5. Do they have a smell?

Since our mats are made largely from natural rubber, you may experience a slight rubbery smell when it arrives. This will dissipate as soon as you use your mat or you may choose to air it out before use.

6. How do I clean my Sumati Grip Mat?

To clean your mat, take a damp cloth with an oil-free mat spray and wipe any dirt off. For thorough cleaning, gently wipe with a soapy scrub and rinse with water. Always leave your mat to air dry (even better overnight) to completely eliminate any odor. Any moisture absorbed by the mat will disappear when dry.

7. How do I care for my Sumati Grip Mat?

DOs:

• Love your mat and shower it with good vibes
• Dry it completely every after use
• Roll your mat with the color side on top to avoid creasing

DON’Ts:

• Refrain from putting concentrated oils as this may leave stains
• Do not leave under the sun for too long to avoid fading
• Do not machine wash, tumble dry, soak, or bleach

8. Where were they made?

Sumati mats were conceptualized in Manila, Philippines and were manufactured in China with very close quality control.
