The Coolest Pieces of Gear We Tested This Week

If a new yoga mat is on your radar right now, then you need to know about Yellow Willow. They produce all types of yoga gear and accessories, but we particularly love our new XL Unisex Yoga Mat. This thing is soft and buttery, yet grips the ground impressively well and provides the perfect non-slip foundation for our entire session.

The extra-long (74-inch) mat is made from eco-friendly natural rubber and recycled materials (with an eco-rubber underlay) is biodegradable and recyclable, it has an ultra-absorbent surface, it’s machine washable, and it’s just such a pleasure to use.

Their yoga mat line comes in a wide variety of prints (we preferred the Phoenix print, pictured above), and they also offer everything else a yogi could need—from fitness carry-all totes to yoga underwear. This is a brand that we love to get behind, and it’s such a refreshing feeling when eco-friendly companies also produce high-quality gear that actually performs (better than brands with no eco-friendly ethos). Wins across the board with Yellow Willow, if you ask us.—Jon Perino, senior editor
