Decorative rug3 sizes
The essentials. Decorative doormat showing the gold plate of the WBC belt, ringed with the flags of the world, on a black ground. Three sizes, 40 x 60, 50 x 80 and 60 x 90 cm / 16 x 24, 20 x 31 and 24 x 35 in, from €19 to €29. Non-slip gripper backing, machine washable.
Founded in Mexico City in 1963, the World Boxing Council is one of the four sanctioning bodies whose belt counts: it is the title Mike Tyson won first in 1986, the one Canelo Álvarez holds at super-middleweight, the one Oleksandr Usyk added to the other three in 2024 to become undisputed at heavyweight. Its plate is the most recognisable in the sport — a gold globe circled by the flags of its member nations, which says at a glance that the title is a world one.
What is printed
The oval plate of the belt, in gold, fills almost the full width of the mat. At its centre, two gold gloves and a globe; around them, WORLD CHAMPION arced above and the three letters WBC in black capitals below. The rim is made up of national flags in full colour, the only polychrome part of the design. The ground is plain black.
Choosing your size
Three sizes, 40 x 60, 50 x 80 and 60 x 90 cm / 16 x 24, 20 x 31 and 24 x 35 in. The size chart tells you which size matches which door.
Technical specifications
Good to know. The design reproduces the plate of the belt, not the green strap it is fixed to. It is a gold and black mat punctuated by flag colours.

Frequently asked questions
What size doormat should I choose?
40 x 60 cm / 16 x 24 in suits a 70 to 80 cm / 28 to 31 in door, 50 x 80 cm / 20 x 31 in a standard 90 cm / 35 in front door, and 60 x 90 cm / 24 x 35 in a double door or a kitchen sink front. Pick a mat slightly wider than the opening, otherwise people step around it instead of on it.
Can a doormat go in the washing machine?
This one can, then dry it flat. Flat drying keeps the gripper backing in shape, which is where every non-slip mat suffers in a tumble dryer.
What do the flags around the WBC belt represent?
The nations affiliated to the sanctioning body. The World Boxing Council, founded in Mexico City in 1963, rings its belt plate with the flags of its member countries: that is what distinguishes its plate from those of the WBA, IBF and WBO.
Is the mat green like the WBC belt?
No. The design reproduces the gold plate and the flags on a black ground. The green strap of the belt is not part of it: the mat is black and gold.
Can it be used outdoors, in front of the entrance door?
It is built for indoor use: the surface is textile and absorbs moisture rather than scraping soles. Under a covered porch it holds up; in the open rain it stays wet. Its place is a room threshold, a bathroom, a kitchen or a sheltered balcony.
