Shag Rugs

Shag Rugs Guide

Shag Rugs are plush, high-pile floor coverings known for their deep, soft texture and retro appeal, popularized in the 1960s and 1970s. Characterized by long, fluffy fibers that create a luxurious, cozy feel underfoot, shag rugs are often made from materials like wool, polyester, or acrylic. Their thick, uneven surface gives them a relaxed, inviting look, making them ideal for adding warmth and comfort to living rooms, bedrooms, or lounging areas. Available in a wide range of colors and styles, shag rugs are versatile and can complement both contemporary and bohemian decor. While they offer unmatched softness, shag rugs require regular maintenance to keep them clean and free from debris, making them a stylish yet practical addition to cozy interiors.
