Discover the ultimate guide to choosing the best towel-mat combo for hot yoga. Learn what to look for, how to care for your mat, and why WAYmat’s eco grip mats stand out.
If you've ever tried hot yoga, you know the truth: sweat happens. And a regular yoga mat just won’t cut it when things start to heat up. That’s where the towel-mat combo comes in — a game-changer for anyone who wants to stay grounded, dry, and confident during intense flows.
Hot yoga, power vinyasa, and heated sculpt classes bring serious sweat. That sweat can cause slipping, sliding, and distractions if your mat isn’t built to handle it.
Towel-mats combine a high-absorbency surface (like microfiber) with a grippy base that sticks to the floor, giving you the best of both worlds.
Material Matters: Microfiber is a top choice for its absorbency and softness. Some towel-mats now use eco-friendly or recycled versions, which are better for the planet.
Grip Backing: Look for mats that won’t bunch up or move under pressure. Silicone or rubberized backing is a major plus.
Full Coverage: Your towel-mat should match the dimensions of a standard yoga mat (24" x 68" or longer) to give you seamless protection.
Durability: A towel-mat should last through dozens of washes without losing color or grip. Bonus points for quick-dry fabrics.
Today’s yogis don’t want boring. Bold prints, calming colors, and artistic patterns are more popular than ever. Matching your mat to your mood (or outfit) is part of the experience.
Wash cold with mild detergent
Air dry to preserve grip and prevent shrinkage
Skip fabric softeners (they ruin absorbency)
Buying a towel and mat separately can get pricey. Look for brands that offer bundle discounts or multi-mat deals.
