The blue striped cotton yoga bag
This yoga bag is cut from strong, densely woven cotton and decorated with a blue-and-white striped pattern along its side. It closes with a zipper along its full length, so you can carry your yoga mat from class to home well protected from dust and damp. The bag follows the simple, durable cut of traditional Nepali handwork, and accompanies your practice days reliably for many years.
What fits inside
The bag is 67 centimetres long and 24 centimetres wide, so it comfortably holds a standard yoga mat. Many users report that two mats also fit if they are rolled up tightly. You can add a yoga block, a strap or a small blanket beside the mat, and everything stays together inside the bag between the class and the journey home.
Material and look
Cotton is a natural fibre, it breathes well and does not seal moisture against the mat. The blue-and-white stripes run clearly along the entire side of the bag. Worn on the hip or across the shoulder, the bag is comfortable for you because the strap is long enough to fit over a winter coat, so it does not hinder your walking in the cold.
How to use it
At the end of the class, roll up your mat and slide it in through the open zipper. The mouth of the bag opens wide, so you place the mat in with a single movement. The strap stays on your shoulder and your hands remain free for the bicycle, another bag or a child's hand. The zipper pulled to the end protects the mat during the journey.
Cleaning and durability
The cotton bag can be kept clean with gentle hand washing or a delicate machine cycle. Wash it in cold or lukewarm water and air dry it, so the colour of the stripes stays vivid for a long time. Do not iron the zipper, and turn the strap from time to time, so the stitching wears evenly on your shoulder.
