Cleona Denim 2' x 7' Runner Rug

For safety and longevity, we strongly recommend using a non-slip rug pad underneath this runner. While the rug features a durable power-loomed backing, a pad prevents the rug from shifting or bunching on smooth surfaces like hardwood or tile. A pad also adds an extra layer of cushioning, enhancing the luxurious feel of the shag pile and protecting your flooring from the friction of daily use.

Synthetic polypropylene offers several practical advantages, especially for a "relaxed West Coast" or modern aesthetic. It is inherently stain-resistant and moisture-repellent, meaning spills are less likely to soak into the fibers compared to natural materials like wool. This makes the rug much easier to maintain while providing a similar posh color palette and soft feel at a more accessible price point.

This rug is very practical for active households. The durable synthetic fibers are resistant to snags from pet claws, and the solid denim color helps mask minor wear between cleanings. Because it is made from non-porous polypropylene, it is easier to treat the occasional accident than a natural fiber rug. Additionally, the thick, lush pile provides a soft, comfortable surface for children to play on.

A 2' x 7' runner is a versatile size ideal for transitional spaces. For a balanced look in a hallway, we recommend the "18-inch rule" or at least leaving 2–3 inches of bare floor visible on either side to define the walkway. This rug also works beautifully as a soft landing next to a bed or in front of a kitchen island, where its rectangle shape can help guide movement through the room.

Yes, this runner is specifically engineered for durability. It is power-loomed using high-quality synthetic polypropylene yarns that are designed to withstand heavy foot traffic without losing their "lush, thick pile." While many shag rugs can flatten over time, this synthetic construction helps the rug retain its flowing dimension and soft texture year after year, making it an excellent choice for busy corridors or entryways.

To keep the fibers looking bright and beautiful, our experts recommend vacuuming regularly using a suction-only setting. It is important to disable the beater bar on your vacuum to avoid snagging or pulling the long shag yarns. For spills, we suggest blotting immediately with a mild detergent and cool water. Based on our material care guidelines, synthetic rugs can also be steam-cleaned periodically to restore the pile's original loft.
