Manduka Almost Perfect PRO mats are all uniquely imperfect  (just like us humans) and discounted to reflect their imperfections,  but they are still 100% PRO performance - with their one of a kind touch. Lucy, our Founder, has an Almost Perfect green Pro Mat which she uses daily - a couple of nicks on one side but otherwise it\'s perfect, and uniquely hers.  The Almost Perfect mats may differ in appearance and dimensions from the Manduka\'s manufacturing specification in ways such as: May differ from colour images May differ in length May vary in thickness May vary in weight May have surface imperfections May have nicks on the bottom side May differ in color/logo May have variations in cut, i.e. may be cut askew All the mats have been quality tested and have the same performance as the standard PRO-mats.   While the Lifetime Guarantee doesn\'t apply to \"Almost Perfect\" PRO-mats, we know they will last (and you will love them) for many years to come!
