Maximizing Value & Shelf Life
Natural rubber and EVA foam are both durable, but they respond badly to heat and direct sunlight, which dries out rubber and can warp foam over time. A quick wipe-down and a cool, dry storage spot go a long way.
Step-by-Step Daily Best Practices
Wipe bands and mats with a damp cloth after sweaty sessions, let them air dry fully before rolling or folding, and avoid leaving them in a hot car or on a sunny windowsill.
Checking Fittings Over Time
Give aluminium clips and buckles a quick visual check every month or so, a loose fitting is usually easy to spot before it becomes a problem mid-session.
