I now have three. Long-time hot yoga practitioner who no longer wants to risk falling or twisting an ankle due to soaking wet towel.I originally bought this towel maybe a year ago. And I loved it so I just purchased another one. The material is not the same. Much cheaper quality than the original. I am not impressed. Not as absorbent, material slides around doesn’t stay in place or lay flat. Not good for hot yoga.I love this mat. It stays in place, keeps me in place, keeps me dry.... but most importantly, when I forget to take my yoga mat to the gym for class, I always have this in my bag. I place it on their yoga mats, and I don’t have to worry so much about how sanitary the mat is. I take it home, and it washes beautifully. I also use it for stretching on the mats at the gym. It’s perfect.I lay this yoga towel on top of a new yoga mat to reduce slipping. It is a good combination to help maintain balance.I got this on Saturday, and used it for Hot Yoga on Sunday and I love it. It is the perfect size to match my mat and didn't let me slip once. I have only used it once so I don't know how it will hold up yet, but i'm anxious to see how it works over time. So far so good!Better than the pricey that I bought ahead not lint catcher cloth. Too bad unavailableI recently borrowed a friend's Susama yoga towel and loved it so much I wanted to order one. The towel had rave reviews online but I couldn't find it for purchase anywhere! This towel is equal quality and I love it! I am so happy to have found the Gradient Fitness towel.I really love this mat. I use during my weight training on the bench and floor. It's easy to fold, carry and store. It's also easy to wash. Unlike other mats I've used for fitness, this one isn't bulky and it is quite absorbent. Highly recommend this mat to prospective purchasers.
