WeatherTech and Husky Liners are competing brands of custom floor mats for both American and foreign vehicles. The goal of both products is to protect your carpet and floorboards from damage due to dirt and moisture. The key differences are aesthetics and cost.
WeatherTech liners are made of a heavier material, do not fully cover the left foot rest and have holes to attach to floor board hooks. Husky liners are thinner and cover slightly more floor space with molded covers to go over floor board hooks.
Husky Liners are less expensive than WeatherTech. As of October 2010, Husky Liners averaged about $110 for a set of front and back heavy-duty truck mats; WeatherTech mats average $110 for the front only.
Both types of floor mats come in a range of standard interior colors and are made specific to a vehicle's make and model. Both have troughs to collect water, mud, sand and slush, although the troughs are deeper in the WeatherTech models.
