I ordered this to try this style of bag (a tote with an extra flap of fabric with reinforced stitching that holds a yoga mat. I had been disappointed with full zip-in yoga bags that either didn’t fit my blocks or were way too big for a mat, blocks, strap, and socks.
When I ordered this I relied on the photo more than the description. This is a canvas bag; it will wrinkle. The bag in the photo must have been starched and ironed! So the look of the bag was underwhelming, but the function did not disappoint! The bag holds my blocks, strap, socks, and mat without being bulky, and it is washable.
More surprises were in store. I ordered this for the bag, which as a canvas bag would not have warranted the price. My yoga mat has a carrying strap so I didn’t need the mat wraps that work like big slap bracelets. It is so easy to put them on the mat, and they are secure. I love them. I also already had bands I use for hip flexor exercises. When I first pulled one of the three out, I thought, I don’t need these, and they should be held together with Velcro to make it easier to get them on. Now that I’ve used them, I love them just the way they are. The elastic fabric is extremely comfortable while doing these exercises. It spreads out the force and the fabric is soft. This bag also comes with a pair of yoga socks, which I didn’t need, but have used. Their quality is comparable to my other yoga socks.
So, this yoga, equipment bag, which at first disappointed me, has been a pleasant surprise. I would still prefer a material that wrinkled less for the bag but like it’s functionality and love the Matt wraps and hip flexor bands.
