Liforme Original Yoga Mat
The alignment-focused mat. Liforme's GripForMe surface stays grippy even when drenched in sweat—OutdoorGearLab describes it as 'sticks like a gecko.' Built-in alignment system guides hand and foot placement.
Our Verdict
GripForMe surface 'sticks like a gecko' (OutdoorGearLab) with built-in alignment system. Eco-polyurethane + rubber construction is planet-friendly—but at $160 the value case depends on exploiting the alignment and grip features.
