A co-worker in my yoga class had a Gaiam yoga mat that not only crumbled, but the dye rubbed off on her! Our yoga teacher puts essential oils in our palms or wrists to close out a yoga class. My co-worker noticed after class that she had dye on her hands, presumably the dye had rubbed off with the oil. This was a new yoga mat that she had bought from Gaiam directly.
Now, this wasn't one of the fancier Gaiam mats that look suspiciously like the Manduka mats, but still. Gave me pause when I was looking at the Gaiam travel yoga mat. I would search reviews on amazon.
