XXL cowhides are the crème de la crème of the collection: not only are they large in size, but they also always have that warm, luxurious look. Perfect for filling the largest spaces in your home, from a spacious living room to a loft. Below, I’ll tell you what to look for.
Why choose an XXL cowhide?
An XXL hide gives your interior an unparalleled presence. In a large room, a regular rug can sometimes look lost; an extra-large cowhide, on the other hand, effortlessly fills the space and completes the look in one fell swoop. It’s the perfect way to add warmth, comfort, and a touch of luxury to a spacious room.
Good to know: I don’t always have this size in stock. Really large hides are scarce, so I order them specially from the tannery, which sets the extra-large ones aside for me as soon as they become available. If you see a beautiful XXL hide come along, it’s truly a special find.
Plus, it has all the familiar qualities of a genuine cowhide: it lasts for years, is naturally non-slip, and every piece is completely unique.
How big is an XXL cowhide?
XXL refers to the very largest hides: about 2.50 meters in length and larger. It’s a real eye-catcher that really comes into its own, especially in spacious rooms. Since every hide is unique in size, I measure them all in centimeters; you’ll find the exact dimensions listed with each product, so you can check at home to see if it fits.
Which rooms are XXL cowhides suitable for?
An extra-large cowhide looks its best in more spacious rooms:
- in the spacious living room, as a central rug under or partially under the coffee table;
- in the master bedroom, next to the bed: that way, you’ll never step onto a cold floor;
- the entryway, the kitchen, or the guest room;
- creative spaces such as a reading room, study, or studio;
- and, of course, your man cave or loft, where it adds a rustic, luxurious touch.
How to use an XXL cowhide in your home
- As a rug: lay it flat on a dry, level floor, in the middle of the living room, under the coffee table, or partially under your sofa. Sturdy and naturally non-slip.
- Over your couch or armchair: drape it (partially) over the seat for a playful look. Great for households with pets: this way, you can protect your couch or chair right away.
- On the wall: as wall decor, an XXL hide is an impressive work of art, looking stunning in larger spaces and lofts.

Is an XXL cowhide perhaps too big?
Not sure if an XXL hide will fit in your room? First, measure your floor space and compare it to the dimensions listed for each product. Does it not quite fit? No worries—I also have smaller sizes that might be a better fit. I’ve organized the hides by size:
- XS: smaller than 2.00 m²
- S: 2.01–2.99 m²
- M/L: 3.00–3.99 m²
- XL: starting at 4.00 m²
- XXL: the very largest, about 2.50 m long and larger

Prefer a specific color?
Of course, you’ll also want to choose an XXL hide based on color. Take a look, for example, at the classic black-and-white or warm brown-and-white cowhides, or browse through all the cowhides and filter by size XXL.

How do I care for an XXL cowhide?
Very little maintenance. Cowhides have short hair: just vacuum them occasionally on a low setting, without a rotating brush. Shaking out such a large hide is quite difficult, so there’s no need to do that. Simply dab any stains with a slightly damp cloth. You can find detailed tips on maintaining and cleaning cowhides.
