The Best Yoga Mat Bags For Your Mat, Accessories, And More
Your gym bag is great for a water bottle and some accessories, but yoga mats are long, bulky, and require their own bag—so here are our top picks!
Whatever your bag preference, and whatever your needs, we’ve found a yoga bag for you. Do you like tote bags? Backpacks? Perhaps you want something more stylish, or maybe more functional. Our list of best yoga bag roundups covers it all, so read on to find the best bag for you.
Best Yoga Tote Bag: YogiiiTote ($ 24)
Tote bags are great for tossing your random belongings all into one spot. With the YogiiiTote, you can have room to throw your keys, phone, water, towel, and yoga mat into the same tote bag with room to spare. Because it’s designed to fit a yoga mat, it is longer than most tote bags so the mat won’t fall out. Plus, its shape is straight on one side and slightly curved on the other to ensure the security of your items.
With this bag, you can comfortably carry your mat without it knocking your shoulder or sitting uncomfortably under your arm. And while the main opening of the YogiiiTote has room for your mat plus other items, there’s even a smaller pocket and a zippered pocket so you can separate and organize your items. Choose between 7 different colors with this simple-looking bag. Just note that mats ½ inches or more in thickness may be too big for the YogiiiTote.
If you want a tote bag, but you don’t want your mat sticking out of the top of the tote, check out this LUCKAYA Yoga Mat, which holds the strapped mat horizontally instead.
Best Yoga Backpack: Aurorae ($ 35)
Carrying around a yoga mat can be an inconvenience, especially if you favor hands-free mobility. This Aurorae Yoga Mat Backpack gives you that freedom when you put your yoga mat vertically into the side holder (where a bottle holder usually goes) and strap it in. And because your mat is held on the outside of the bag, you have so much room on the inside to put other items.
