The 5 advantages of a shaggy rug

Are you someone who likes to keep your feet warm? Then you may often wear slippers or always have socks on. Of course this is nice for your feet, as it keeps them nice and warm. However, your feet also just want to be free and not constantly wrapped up. Fortunately, you can give your feet more freedom and keep them nice and warm with a shaggy rug! In this blog we'd like to tell you the 5 advantages of a shaggy rug!

#1 A shaggy rug is sound-dampening

Are you already familiar with the term 'shaggy'? Then you probably think of 'it wasn't me'. That's a nice sound to hear in the house, but a shaggy rug will prevent noise pollution. Maybe you have children who don't just stick to singing, but who also happily dance and jump. Then a shaggy rug is the ideal solution! Shaggy rugs are high-pile and therefore work as sound-dampeners, so you don't hear every step or jump in the house.

#2 Shaggy rugs are wonderfully soft

Shaggy rugs are also known as high-pile rugs. This means that you get a rug that is pleasantly high. A high-pile rug means your feet sink slowly into a rug. And when your feet have sunk in, your feet experience a blanket of softness around them. You can experience this as the softest blanket in the world, but for your feet. It's then not surprising that shaggy rugs are one of the most sought-after rugs. So popular that many people are looking for nice big shaggy rugs for the living or bedroom. A popular size is the 200x300cm high-pile rug.

#3 High-pile carpets keep your feet nice and warm

High-pile carpets are carpets with a long pile. This means you get yarn with long fibres. High-pile carpets hold warmth well. In practice, this means that even in winter your feet will be warm. Your feet experience after a step a soft embrace, that hugs your feet like a warm blanket. High-pile carpets are therefore often used to make the room winter-proof, because yes, who wants to walk over a cold floor in the living room or wake up next to a cold surface? High-pile carpets now also come in round! Round high-pile rugs are cutting-edge and like standard rectangular rugs hold the warmth well!

#4 Go for a luxury look with a shaggy carpet

Besides keeping your feet nice and warm, a high-pile carpet also radiates luxury in an interior. A shaggy carpet is namely beautiful and truly a sight to behold in the home. It is then not surprising that the most sought-after rug has everything to offer, what a person is looking for for his interior. 'Atmosphere maker' is what a shaggy carpet is also called, because partly due to its high-pile property the carpet radiates luxury in an interior, but not only its high-pile character is responsible for this. The beautiful colours that are worked into a shaggy carpet also create atmosphere and luxury in the home. For example, black high-pile rugs are chic and blue high-pile rugs create calm. Of course, these high-pile shaggy rugs come in many more colours, which makes it even easier to combine furniture with a shaggy high-pile carpet!

#5 The shaggy rug comes in many sizes, types and colours

A shaggy rug has the property that the yarn is nice and long. This makes it nice to walk on, but that's not only due to its high-pile character. The shaggy rug also comes in many types. A popular type that comes back with shaggy rugs is wool. A high-pile woollen rug makes the shaggy rug even softer than it is! The high pile of a shaggy rug makes the rug soft to walk on, but wool also contributes to this. Another advantage of wool is that it keeps dirt and moisture away more easily. This makes a woollen rug easier to maintain.
