Vehicle Mat Colors and Patterns
We offer a curated selection of 25 color options to elevate your vehicle's interior—ranging from richly woven neutrals to bold statement hues. All colors are crafted with premium Chilewich textiles, known for their durability, easy maintenance, and signature textured weaves.
Mat Color Pricing Tiers
Standard Colors: Our best-selling colors, Deep Grey and Fawn, are the most economical options. Thanks to their popularity, we're able to pass along volume discounts directly to you.
Custom Colors: All other non-patterned colors—including popular choices like Cashmere, Grey Flannel, and Gravel—fall into the custom tier and carry a slightly higher price due to lower production volumes.
Custom Pattern: Plaid Grey is our only patterned offering. It requires additional material to ensure precise pattern alignment across mat sections, which places it in its own premium pricing tier.
Backing Options: Latex vs. TPO
To ensure maximum performance and comfort, we use two types of backing based on the location of the mat in your vehicle:
Why Different Backings?
TPO Backing (foam): For living area mats (Section B), we use TPO when available in your selected color. TPO offers added cushioning—perfect for standing barefoot during vanlife routines. However, it does have a slight “memory,” meaning temporary indentations may appear if heavy objects are left on it for extended periods. We also use TPO backing for our shower mats, since TPO dries faster than latex.
Latex Backing: For front (Section A) and cargo (Section C) mats, we use latex backing. It’s more resistant to compression and indentations, making it ideal for high-traffic and utility-focused zones where gear and heavy items are frequently placed.
TPO-Compatible Colors
Not all colors are compatible with TPO. If your selected color is Cashmere, Deep Grey, Fawn, Gravel, Grey Flannel, Melange, Pebble, Cobblestone, or Tweed, your living area mat (Section B) will come with TPO backing, and the front and cargo mats will be latex-backed. These are also the only colors our shower mats are available in, since TPO dries quicker than latex.
For all other colors—including Black and White, Coffee, Confetti, Cranberry, Flint, Indigo, Ink, Lagoon, Noir, Plaid Grey, Sea, Sisal, and White-Silver—all sections will feature latex backing.
Surface Material & Care
Regardless of the backing, all mats are topped with the same durable Chilewich woven vinyl textile. Easy to clean and antimicrobial by design, these textiles are engineered to handle daily life with style.
When cleaning:
Latex-backed mats retain more moisture and may require up to 24 hours to dry in a conditioned space.
TPO-backed mats dry more quickly—typically in just a few hours depending on conditions.
To extend the life of your mats and protect the existing flooring, always allow them to dry completely before reinstalling them in your vehicle.
