Which one should you buy?

For most people starting or settling into a regular practice, the Gaiam Premium Print Yoga Mat at around $36 is the right buy: a 6mm thickness that cushions knees and joints without feeling wobbly, a genuinely sticky textured non-slip surface, and a 6P-free PVC build that is free of the worst phthalates. It is the most popular value mat on Amazon AU for good reason and suits the widest range of bodies and styles.

If you want the cheapest serious mat, the PROIRON TPE Foldable Yoga Mat at around $30 folds to roughly A4 size and weighs just 1.7lb, making it the obvious travel and small-apartment pick in eco-friendly recyclable TPE. The BalanceFrom Go Yoga Mat at around $33 is the half-inch-thick comfort option with a carry strap, and the adidas Fitness Mat at around $56 is a 7mm NBR mat for floor work. For maximum cushioning, the PROIRON NBR Yoga Mat at around $60 is a 10mm extra-thick mat with alignment lines and a shoulder strap, while the Retrospec Solana Yoga Mat at around $73 is the premium half-inch pick with a nylon carry strap and a polished finish.
