Hey guys, pretty simple question, ive been trying to buy a floor mat, one of the tan, plain ones ( uscoa or something ) to cut up and make into fields, ive looked through amazon and ebay. Ive seen quite a few ,i just want to be sure the one i buy looks the best it can be for my table and wanted to know if you guys could post links or exact names ( brand) of ones you bought before. Im looking for the best/ realest looking one, that is still at a reasonable price and has the flat rubber bottom.
Thanks ahead of time!

At least i think it was this one.

they where about an inch thick though so not sure if it will be good for 15mm games.

It's a bit difficult to see from the picture but I would buy it in person if possible. Just check the bristle/ coir is as stiff as possible. Also consider how you will cut the stuff to desired height ? Lots of people use hair clippers but they will need to be heavy duty. I used a pair of heavy duty garden scissors to do the job instead

I use Teddybear fur, I got 2 meters squared on ebay for under £10. Easy to cut and you can spray it different colours. Plus miniatures sink into it.
