These 7 Indoor Doormats Are Actually Stylish and Absorbent (They’re Perfect for Winter!)
If there’s one thing that winter has taught me (as a former California girl), it’s that a good indoor doormat can save you so much cleaning later. Between snowy boots, slushy shoes, dog paws, and whatever mystery grit the sidewalk decides to share, a low-profile indoor doormat is the easiest way to keep floors cleaner without constantly running a mop. The trick is looking for styles that are thin enough to sit directly behind the door without getting jammed, but still textured and absorbent enough to catch dirt before it spreads all over the house.
To help combat your winter woes, I rounded up picks that are some of the best — durable, good-looking, and easy to shake out or vacuum when they’ve done their job. From super-thirsty mats that soak up melted snow, to woven, design-forward options that look like stylish rugs, there’s something here for every entryway, mudroom, or apartment landing.
Below are some of the best indoor mats that help trap dirt, salt, and winter grime right at the door — so you don’t have to chase it all over the house later.
