"Gloves good for carpet"

I tried the gloves on wood floor, ceramic tile and carpet. My hands slid on the wood and ceramic floor, but did not slip on carpet. With gloves off, my hands usually slip on carpet. Convenient for travel. Also costs less than yoga paws, plus you get a DVD and quick reference cards. I have not tried yoga paws, but I read from other reviews that the hands and feet can slip out. The gloves from Yoga on the Go Deluxe have individual finger and toe openings, so hands and feet don't slip out. 4 stars

"don't be duped by gaiam branding; keep looking"

i was surprised that gaiam would associate itself with this product. not only do they sell it on their own website, but their logo is all over the products.

equally surprising is how flimsy and poorly made these products are. if you need an analogous concept and execution think about those cheap gardening gloves with the little dots of hard rubber on them that you can buy at a drug store. the only difference is that the gardening gloves have better padding and will probably last longer.

i slipped while in down dog (mostly my hands) and in the warrior poses (especially my back leg). i also found that because there is no padding my hands and feet hurt due to the pressure of the dots.

i'd send them back but i'd lose more money on that.

i will probably buy yoga paws now... 1 star

"not a replacement for a yoga mat"

The gloves and footies don't really provide slip provention. I tried it on carpet and tile. For standing poses they are fine but downdog does not work as my hands just slid. The cards and dvd are nice though. 3 stars
