Pad shape
— Rectangular. The classic shape used in the vast majority of rugs — thanks to its versatility and suitability for almost any task.
— Round. The round shape is chosen mainly for design reasons, to create an original looking rug. From a practical point of view, this form is considered suitable mainly for “office” use: the mobility of a mouse on round products is limited compared to classic rectangular rugs, and they are not very convenient for games.
— Oval. Rugs of rounded shape, elongated in width compared to classic round ones. They have a slightly larger working surface, but they are also designed mainly for working with documents and other tasks that do not require special mouse mobility.
— Figured. This category includes rugs of the original form that do not belong to any of the varieties described above. Among them, two main types can be distinguished. The first is models designed with practicality and convenience in mind. These are, in particular, rugs with a pillow under the wrist (see below), which have a shape close to round (and similar in application), as well as products that vaguely resemble an apple in outline. The second type is models created primarily for the original design (at the same time, they may not be very practical).
