Product Description
Who we are:
Downward Frog is a small South London-based company passionate about creating yoga mats that are functional and pleasing to the eye. We’re vegan planet lovers that are excited by art and yoga. Downward Frog was born from our shared vision for a better future.
Why we do what we do:
With art, design, and yoga at the forefront of our minds, we set out to create something different. We want to stand out from the crowd and we know you do too. With that in mind, we have designed four modern printed mats which are super soft, non-slip, lightweight, and pretty vibey. We know it will be exactly what you’re looking for.
What makes us unique:
We want to provide individuals with a modern alternative to the standard single colour workout mat. There’s something for everyone, with multicolour designs that appeal to both kids and adults. Stand out at your next yoga class, keep it out on your living room floor, fold it up and take it on your next holiday. However you choose to use it, we know you’ll be inspired to roll it out and get creative.
FAQ
Q: Are these yoga mats suitable for hot yoga or sweaty sessions? A: Yes! The microfiber surface is designed to become grippier as you sweat, making it perfect for hot yoga, Bikram, and any high-intensity practice. No extra yoga towel needed!
Q: What’s the difference between the travel mat and the standard 4mm mat? A: The travel mat is ultra-light and foldable, ideal for packing into a suitcase or gym bag. The 4mm mat offers extra cushioning and support for daily home or studio practice. Both use the same absorbent microfiber and natural rubber base.
Q: Do I need to break in the mat? A: No break-in required! If you have dry hands or are using it in a non-sweaty session, a light mist of water can help activate the grip right away.
Q: How do I clean the mat? A: These mats are machine washable on a gentle cold cycle. Alternatively, wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air dry—no tumble drying.
Q: Are the materials premium? A: Yes. Our mats are made from natural tree rubber and topped with a water-based ink printed microfiber. They’re free from PVC, latex, and harsh chemicals.
Q: Are these mats non-slip? A: Yes – the microfiber surface is designed to get grippier with moisture, making it ideal for sweaty practices like hot yoga or if you tend to have clammy hands. For extra dry hands, we recommend lightly misting the mat before practice to enhance grip. If you prefer a mat that’s ultra-grippy straight away, even when dry, you might find our Grippit mat more suitable for your style.
Q: Can I use this mat for other workouts? A: Absolutely. These mats work brilliantly for Pilates, stretching, HIIT, and any floor-based fitness. The absorbent top and cushioned base offer comfort and stability across workouts.
