Perfect Size and Weight for My Smaller Hands

I originally ordered another brand (Maduka) that also had rave reviews. It measured 9”x6”x4”. They seemed to be well made and substantial, but they were just a little too wide and heavy for me, so I sent them back. I had a hard time using them with the half moon pose. The Hugger Muggers measure 9”x5.5”x3.5”, and the half inch difference on the width and depth made them perfect for my smaller hands. They seem very similar to the Madukas, but just a little smaller and lighter. I can now do the half moon pose with ease. The description says they weigh a pound—I couldn’t find what the other brand weighs—but the Mandukas felt a little heavier. To compare your hands with mine, mine measure 7 inches from my wrist to the tip of my third finger and 8 inches from my thumb to little finger when my hand is spread as wide as possible. (See photos.) I also have a foam block, but I much prefer the cork. Every time I see the "Hugger Mugger” name on the side of the blocks, it puts a smile on my face. I am very happy with this purchase!
