"Nearly two decades ago, Manduka launched with one mat that revolutionized the way teachers and students practice yoga," said Sky Meltzer, CEO Manduka. "Our belief in the transformational power of the yoga practice is prevalent in our first, beloved black mat and has carried through our entire collection of yoga gear and now apparel. With this launch we take an important step forward in enhancing the experience of yoga on and off the mat."
Inspired by yoga teachers, athletes and the principles of nature – the men's and women's apparel collection is soulfully engineered by yogis, featuring the most cutting edge design technology available in athletic wear and sustainable fabrications. Made from recycled polyester, organic cotton, hemp, Tencel & Modal and Sorona, each material is intentionally chosen for the practice of yoga, allowing for maximum comfort, fit and movement, the company said.
The first ever Manduka women's collection features a full line of performance and lifestyle apparel including pants, bras, camisoles and après yoga pieces specifically constructed to provide support and comfort during yoga practice.

The tees, shorts, tanks, pants and hoodies are constructed to resolve reoccurring challenges and discomforts in athletic apparel worn on the mat, while maintaining the lifestyle appeal of street wear. Its color story is inspired by the way your favorite, 'never to part with' tees and shorts look at the end of summer, worn in and washed out by the sun.
