Put any two yoga mats side by side
Pick two or three models we rank, choose how you will use them, and see every key spec and the FitScore for that use, with the better value of each row highlighted.
Short answer
Choose two or three yoga mats and how you will use them. The tool lines up every key spec, highlights the better value in each row and shows which model scores higher for that use.
Key takeaways
- Compare yoga mats for your use: the same mat scores differently for hot yoga, travel or sensitive knees.
- Material decides grip; thickness and density decide cushion.
- The better value in each measurable row is highlighted only when one mat is clearly ahead.
- A lower mat weight wins, because it is easier to carry.
Product pages list specs in different orders, so this tool puts them on one grid.
How to Read the Yoga Mat Comparison
Each row tells you something different about how the yoga mat will feel and fit at home. Read the warranty row with care: the FTC warranty guide notes that a warranty can cover parts but not labor.
- Material and surface: PVC, natural rubber, polyurethane over rubber, cork, microfiber or foam; open-cell tops absorb sweat, closed-cell tops wipe clean.
- Thickness: in millimeters; see the yoga mat thickness guide for what each feels like.
- Size and weight: length by width in inches and the mat weight in pounds.
- Latex: natural rubber contains latex; PVC, TPE, foam and cork over foam do not.
- Extras: alignment marks, a strap or bag, folding and any named certification.
- FitScore: our 0 to 100 score for the selected use, read from our scoring table. See how we score.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Mistake 1Judging cushion by thickness alone
Instead: A light foam mat compresses more than a dense one of the same thickness.
Mistake 2Ignoring latex
Instead: Natural rubber contains latex.
Mistake 3Forgetting the length
Instead: Tall users need 71 to 72 inches.
Mistake 4Buying plain PVC for hot yoga
Instead: PVC slides when wet.
