Gaiam only ships within the US, including PO Boxes and military addresses. But, in our search, we did find mention that certain products are made in China, Taiwan, and California. The brand’s website doesn’t specify exactly where it makes its fitness gear. We know that everything it makes is for sure comfortable, and while certain products appear to hold up to wear better than others, for the most part, we can associate durability with the brand as well. Overall, we were really pleased with what we found out about the brand.
The reviewer noted the same cushiony comfort that is typical of the brand’s gear, and revealed that after practicing regularly for a month, “ it performed beautifully.” This certainly echos the things we’ve heard about Gaiam’s gear’s durability, and it’s always appreciated when a brand releases more than one type of product suited for different needs. The Gaiam review noted that the mat has “ better traction as it gets wetter,” something that will come in handy during hot yoga sessions or challenging sequences during a desert retreat. A yogi on Very Well Fit put it to the test, giving it an overall score of 3.9/5 stars. If anti-slip is what you’re after, try the Performance Dry Grip Yoga Mat. A Gaiam review said that “ it’s horrible with sweat so if you are practicing seriously…you will slip and slide.” This is typical for yoga mats in general, not just this brand, and if you want non-slip, Gaiam has a special mat for that-it’s the one we’ll discuss next. Reports like these show us that this quality mat will last for years if taken care of properly.īut while durability certainly isn’t an issue, slippage is. Users speak of “ plenty of cushion,” along with a durable, sturdy construction that makes the mat a joy to roll out day after day. “ Comfortable” seems to be the word of choice when it comes to Gaiam gear. We’ve included the rating snapshot below if you’re interested in how the overall score came to be: Over 7.6K shoppers rated the mat 4.6/5 stars, showing us just how popular the brand is amongst yogis. The next product we looked into was the Classic Yoga Mat – 4mm Printed on Amazon. Upon further investigation, we found out that the ball part can be further inflated, adding a couple of extra inches for those who need it. Apparently, some shorter women find it’s not suitable for their work desks. The most prevalent issue users found with the Gaiam ball chair is that it’s too short. One Gaiam review read, “ This chair…has seriously reduced my back pain…my injuries kinda suck and so I just want to say that while the chair isn’t perfect, it’s darn close.” All in all, it’s a budget chair, and considering what it is, it’s not going to be perfect, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a great find. The most common opinion of the chair is that it’s very comfortable. We chose to take a closer look at the Classic Balance Ball Chair because it’s the brand’s most popular product. Premium 2-Color Gaiam Yoga Mat: an average of 4.3/5 stars from 161 reviews.Yoga Essentials Block: an average of 4.8/5 stars from 180 reviews.Classic Gaiam Balance Ball Chair: an average of 4.4/5 stars from 1,533 reviews.Restore Muscle Therapy Foam Roller: an average of 4.4/5 stars from 44 reviews.Gaiam Neoprene Hand Weight Blue 10lb: an average of 4.9/5 stars from 313 reviews.Again, we don’t see these brands as competitors, so it may be worthwhile to shop both for all your yoga needs.īelow, you’ll read a collection of reviews that mention the brand’s quality and comfort, but let’s kick things off with a small cluster of bestsellers taken from. Our featured brand’s bra is much less expensive, but we can see where Beyond Yoga’s bra pulls ahead in terms of manufacturing and materials. With that said, our featured brand does offer a few pieces of apparel (its bras collection includes just one style and there is just one pair of Gaiam leggings), but if you’re interested in variety, head to Beyond Yoga.įor the sake of interest, we checked out the specs for a similar style that each of the brands carries. Gaiam and Beyond Yoga aren’t really competitors, they’re more like best friends. The more we think about it, the more we see that these two brands are a match made in heaven-one supplying the equipment, the other, the apparel. Beyond Yoga is geared towards apparel for the practice, whereas our featured brand is about equipment and tools.īeyond Yoga’s collection includes everything from tiny tees to maternity wear, but you won’t find a single piece of gear in sight. And though these two brands are yoga-centric, they’re incredibly different.
