The Yoga Mat Carrier or Yoga Gym Bag
The Yoga Mat Carrier, or Yoga Gym Bag, may be something you’ve never heard much about.
Yoga is pretty popular these days with most gyms offering at least one class. As a way to de-stress, and keep fit at the same time, Yoga is supreme.
Being a popular pastime, you’ll find that Yoga accessories have sprung up all over the place, but let’s be honest all you really need is the following:
- Some light, non-constrictive clothing
- A mat
The Yoga Mat Carrier
Consequently a Yoga Mat Carrier may well be be the simplest, most basic bag you’ll ever buy. The prevailing style of the Yoga gym bag is an over the shoulder affair, most often with an oriental looking logo. or symbol, that looks a little like a thin sleeping bag when in a carrier.
The spiritual nature of Yoga encourages manufacturers to create Yoga accessories with the environment in mind so the average Yoga mat carrier will be made of a natural fiber.
One small nod to modern life is that most Yoga gym bags will have a compartment for car keys, cell-phone or something else small and necessary.
The most popular Yoga gym bag is the Gaiam Printed Yoga Mat Bag (Damask)
Made by Gaiam, a company whose vision is all about green, life-enhancing products. Predictably it is 100% cotton, very light (about 2/3 of a pound), super attractive and has a couple of little pouches for your personal gear.
There’s nothing else for it. Simple and effective.
