MEET THE MAKER

Hey I'm Scott, founder and creator of Muddy Feet. What started with one disappointing online order turned into a hand-painted brand made with a lot more care and a lot more personality. Muddy Feet is built around family, creativity and proper doormats that actually hold up in real life.

How It All Started

A lot of good ideas start with a bit of disappointment.

My wife ordered a custom doormat online. When it arrived, it looked nothing like the photos. It wasn’t even a real coir doormat! Just a thin printed mat that honestly looked like s%#t.

As you can see for yourself, it looked cheap, the quality was crap, and I just knew there had to be a better way.

That moment became the start of Muddy Feet. A family-run brand built around quality coir materials, beautiful hand-painted designs, and doormats that last.

"So I decided to make the kind of doormat we’d actually be proud to put at our own front door."

The Muddy Feet difference

Why Muddy Feet Feels Different

Not all custom doormats are made the same. Ours are built to feel better, last longer, and something your proud to have at your front door.

THE DIFFERENCE IS EASY
Other doormats

Often flatter, cheaper-looking, and made to sell quickly — not last.

Design

Boring and generic Welcome or Home prints.

Finish

Messy fibres that shed all over your entryway.

Material

Often contain plastics, poor materials or no coir at all.

Wear

Thin surface level ink that fades in weeks.

process

Mass produced in a factory with no soul at all.

Muddy Feet

Made with proper materials, hand-painted detail, and real front doors in mind.

Finish

Anti-shed coating to reduce fibrous fallout.

Material

100% Natural coir from sustainable coconut husk fibres.

Wear

Spray on rubber based spray that soaks deep into the coir fibres.

process

Hand painted with care from a local artist who appreciates you.

Hand-painted. Premium coir. Made for real life.
THIS IS WHY THEY LOOK BETTER, FEEL BETTER & LAST LONGER
BEHIND THE BUILD

How your piece comes to life

Each Muddy Feet doormat goes through six real steps, each one done with care so you love your new doormat just as much as we love making it.

01 DESIGN

DESIGN

I use professional designing software that turns any logo or design into something that can be hand painted. No matter the detail.

02 STENCIL CREATION

STENCIL CREATION

Once the design is ready, it is cut using a commercial Mutoh vinyl cutter, allowing me to create stencils for mats of all sizes. From standard home mats to large commercial entrances.

03 HEAT APPLICATION

HEAT APPLICATION

The stencil is then heat-pressed onto the mat using a Cricut EasyPress, ensuring perfect adhesion and preventing paint bleed.

04 PAINTING

PAINTING

The mat is painted using a specialised rubber-based spray that bonds deep into the coir fibres, resulting in the longest lasting coir doormats on the market.

05 SEALING

SEALING

After painting, the mat rests for 12–24 hours before the stencil is removed. Once removed, every mat is treated with a fibre sealing treatment which helps reduce excessive shedding.

06 CURING

CURING

The mat then cures for another 24 hours before packaging. The entire process takes a few days, but we’ve refined the process to deliver our custom mats within 5 business days.

READY WHEN YOU ARE

Make your front door feel like you

Choose a design you love, or create something custom that feels right at home. Each individually hand-painted, made with care, and built for real life.
