The roller-ball construction lets you massage your muscles at the same time.

The microfiber towel on top means you’ll stay stuck on the mat no matter how sweaty you get.
And it did a pretty good job at keeping me up in downward facing dog pose without slipping.
Plus, the design detail on mine I thought was really elegant.
I could have stayed in down dog for hours.
Why we love it:The lids!
The bottle really felt multi-purpose with specific lids [sold separately] dedicated to drinking hot and cold liquids.
