Decorative rug3 sizes
The essentials. Grey decorative doormat showing a peek-a-boo guard, red gloves raised against the face. 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. Grey heather ground.
The ground is a grey heather, a blend of light and dark yarns: on light tiles or pale wood it picks up the value of the floor and lets the silhouette stand alone. The word BOXING is printed in small capitals below the raised gloves.
What is printed
The figure is shown front on, as a flat black shape with no facial features, red gloves raised either side of the head. The word BOXING runs in small capitals below the silhouette. The ground is grey heather.
That ground is what counts in use: on light tiles or pale wood the grey heather picks up the value of the floor and lets the design stand alone.
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 design is vertical and centred, so it keeps its proportions across all three. The size chart tells you which size matches which door.
Technical specifications
Good to know. Grey heather is a blend of light and dark yarns: it takes on the shades of the floor rather than cutting against them. A weekly vacuum keeps it between washes.

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 is the peek-a-boo guard?
A high guard with the gloves against the cheeks and the elbows tight, developed by trainer Cus D'Amato and made famous by Floyd Patterson and Mike Tyson. It protects the face at the cost of constant movement in the torso and the legs — exactly the stance printed on this mat.
Which mat suits a light-coloured hallway?
This one: the ground is a grey heather. On light tiles or pale wood it picks up the value of the floor and lets the design stand alone.
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.
