Beautiful, but itchy and stiff

I love the look of this mat, but I didn't find it very comfortable. It's stiffer and scratchier than a typical yoga mat. I thought I was treating myself, but ended up going back to my old blue one! Beautiful concept, but I think they need to work on the material.
Flakey 2007-03-16
I've been using this mat for a little over a month, for a 5 day-a-week practice. At first I was thrilled, but at the end of my 2nd class, I noticed it was looking a little rough where I placed my feet. It's continued to get worse and worse, 100s of little pieces of mat come off during practice, and scatter on the floor around me. Since I practice in a studio, it's particularly annoying. I practice with the "sticky" side down, and the jute side up. The jute side is the side that flakes. Practicing with the jute side down stops the flaking problem, but then the mat inchworms across the floor.

i have to say that i LOVE this mat. the combo jute and rubber make it nearly impossible to slip. only thing is... the jute and rubber are rubbing up against one another and kind of crumbling and flaking off where i often place my feet causing bald spots on my mat. haha. weird, huh? so now you know. other than that the mat is visually very pleasing.
