Boring Spec Me: Tailored Floor Liners

We took delivery of our new car about a month ago, which came fitted with standard OEM floor mats. Nice as they are, I want to upgrade them to something much more robust - coming into winter, the car is likely going to get filthy with carrying dogs, horse equipment, and a girlfriend who doesn't really care much about having muddy boots in the car :/

I'd usually just upgrade to the OEM rubber mats as we did with our last car; however, as this one is brand new, I am determined to do my utmost to keep it in good condition. So I'd really like to get some decent, robust floor liners which will cover more of the footwell sides, and hopefully have less chance of letting stuff get down the side and under the mats. But I am coming up short - replacement car mats are ten a penny, but floor liners seem to harder to source.

There are numerous online vendors which apparently sell what I'm after (diamondcarmats.com, ultracarmats.com, etc), but I am a bit dubious about them. Long shipping times and sometimes suspiciously perfect reviews and obvious AI ads make me think the are probably all reselling the same stuff from China. I'm not really interested in having the utmost quality (just want weather resistance really), and I don't object to buying stuff from China...but I don't want to pay through the nose for something that wont fit and will need to be sent back.

Has anyone here used sites like this where they can vouch for the quality of fitment and reliability? Or know of any decent suppliers of such stuff?

The best option I've seen is Weathertech, but they are US based and don't make mats for our car (Mazda CX60).

Boring thread I know, but with a good range of vehicles on this forum, hoping some of you might have some suggestions.

I'm getting lots of targeted ads for car mats due to repeated searching, and have already seen these come up on my Instagram. Hit me right in the nostalgias.
 
(mistakedly sold my previous car and left the mats in) Looked a gledring mats for audi , after reviewing forums - the tread pattern on these and a few others are attractive too
but seemingly? no cx60.
went for some bit cheaper goodyears that I found & cut/drilled following pattern of oem carpets I removed.

Thanks, but these don't offer as much coverage as I'd like. I'll keep them in mind, but I'm hoping more for a liner which covers more of the footwell sides, as well as just the floor.
 
You really want the '3D' molded styles of rubber mats..

3W Liners (https://uk.3wliners.com/) do lovely sets of these with some having optional rough carpet toppers that clip on as well.. but they don't do Mazda yet (you can submit your car for consideration)..

I have similar 3D molded rubber mats in my Model Y and they have been great, perfectly protecting everything from the Dog/Muddy boots.. just lift out once in a while, hose down and they come up like new..

I see the problem though, I can't see any for RHD versions of the CX-60.. shame as having that molded design, muddy boots are fully contained..

Worth a look on AliExpress, just had a quick search and there's some that might work on there.

Easy enough to send them back if they're crap.

Yup that's exactly the sort of thing I'm after. Shame they don't do our car. Have submitted a request, but guessing it would be optimistic to start making them before winter.

Oooooh, these looks excellent, thanks! Will order some for our car soon I think.

EDIT: Meh, they only do a boot liner. Booo(t).

high lip boot ones are more common(dexter ready), but in the car you transfer mud onto the lip of the seats if you/dogs get in with muddy walking boots/paws/clothes
back of the car I've got air vents at carpet level so discovered I couldn't have a big lip there
looking again at gledring says they have a 13mm lip - so might contain a cup of coffee
