Description of Gaiam Thirsty Yoga Towel (Smokey Purple)
Hot yoga devotees, meet your new favorite prop. Placed on top of a yoga mat, this super absorbent, microfiber towel wicks away moisture and dries in half the time of a cotton towel even after hot yoga classes like Bikram. 24"W x 68"L. 75% nylon/25% polyester. Made in China.Yoga towels come in handy in several situations--as a top layer for your yoga mat, as a yoga mat substitute when a mat isn't available, or while performing "hot" yoga. When used with a yoga mat, this microfiber towel from Gaiam keeps you from slipping while adding a hygienic barrier to the floor. However, it also excels as a regular towel, with a super-absorbent construction that mops up sweat during a particularly energizing routine. The same size as a standard Gaiam yoga mat, the towel is fashionable and effective.

Sports reviews of Gaiam Thirsty Yoga Towel (Smokey Purple)
Customer Review: It works.
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
This yoga towel works good. Like other reviewer says, this one doesn't stay still on the yoga mat as well as yogitoes and I have to fix it a couple of more extra times in a session. I hope it would be a little longer so I can tuck into yoga mat to prevent it, but still works well and really light to carry.
Customer Review: Works well and the price is right
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
This towel works well - absorbs moisture, fits a yoga mat perfectly, and is well worth the purchase if you slip due to perspiration in a yoga class. Other similar products cost twice as much and I see no reason to pay that much. I would buy this product again. Customer Review: Not Worth It
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I have been doing Bikram yoga for about a year now, and needed something longer than a normal bath towel. Instead of buying the expensive yoga towels, I went for Gaiam's, and have not been too impressed. It does absorb much more than a normal towel, but does not stay put on top of the mat in between poses which causes me to constantly fix it, leaving me with little if any resting time. I suggest buying the expensive towels for it's worth the cost in the end.Customer Review: Better than an old towel...

Just started Bikram (hot) yoga and was slipping and sliding on my old bath towel, so I decided to give this a try. It fits perfectly to my yoga mat and really does absorb the sweat really well. It bunches up a little when we are moving positions a lot, but overall I feel it was money well spent, especially seeing how much other manufacturers charge. Definitely worth it!
