Yogoco - the Perfect Yoga Bags

November 30, 2008 · Print This Article

Ah, yoga. The zen. The stretching. The frantic scramble to carry your mat, phone, wallet and water. Oh, and don’t forget your towel.

The problem with most yoga bags is that they’re only made to to fit your mat! All of that other stuff has to go in your pockets, or you need a second bag.

Yogoco bags are so simple and perfect, it’s amazing they weren’t invented sooner. It’s a bag designed with a compartment to hold a mat and another compartment to the other stuff you need for you practice. Genius!

The bags are made of cute fabric including some pretty and whimsical patterns. And while you can’t tell by looking at them, the fabric is extremely eco-friendly: it’s made from t-shirt scraps!

Using t-shirt scraps cuts down on incinerator and landfill use, plus it eliminates the need to grow more cotton, or to dye the fabrics. that is a bag with a very low carbon footprint, which gives it

a very high Namaste score!

Plus, did I mention how cute these bags are? You would never know they are made with scraps! My favorite is the Buddha’s Garden in red, black and white. The bag itself is super light-weight, and even though it will fit all of your gear, it still has a streamlined shape. It’s easy to carry, and it stashes under your desk or at home in your coat closet.

With a bag that great, you’ll be twice — possibly even three times — as motivated to go to class, even after the longest day at work. And whether you have a yogini on your holiday list, that should be the first item next to her name!
