Hey Yogis! This is Alex, president of Strictly USA. I have a Jade Yoga Fusion Mat--it's insane--the cushioning and grip are out of this world! Okay, okay, it's pricey, but you get what you pay for. My mat is 7 years old and still looks and performs like new! The traction is still excellent as is the cushioning. I see many other yogis in my Vinyasa class using two stacked mats for cushion or they fold over a corner of their cheap imported mat to get adequate protection. Ridiculous and unnecessary. This is one of those times where LONG TERM thinking really pays off. I mean, if you're a consistent and dedicated Yogi, you should have some first rate equipment. This is the last mat you'll ever buy.
Jade is probably the ONLY made in USA Yoga mat/ Yoga products manufacturer. Their mats are fantastic, high quality with outstanding grip, cushioning and unparalleled durability. More on Jade below.
The Fusion mat featured here is extra thick, and is great for regular yoga practice, restorative yoga,
pilates and core fitness practices! At 5/16” thick, the
Fusion mat provides extra cushion for whenever you want, or need, that
extra comfort. Several sizes and colors available. If you want a big, roomy mat, select the Fusion XW. Our biggest mat.

FULL DISCLOSURE BEFORE ORDERING: New Jade mats have a rather strong and distinctive
rubbery smell that dissipates rapidly with each use. Also Jade Fusion mats are
somewhat heavier than regular mats owing to the materials and construction.
MORE INFORMATION: Jade mats are made in a sustainable manner with natural rubber tapped
from rubber trees, a renewable resource. Unlike other mats, Jade mats
contain no PVC, EVA or other synthetic rubber, and are made in the
United States in compliance with all US environmental, labor and
consumer protection laws.
