HMS Hermes Returns Mouse Mat, 21 July 1982
A homecoming that mattered to thousands beyond the ship itself, felt right across the country that day. This mat keeps that day in view.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Came in a very secure package and it looks fantastic!" (John P)
Over 16,400 verified five-star reviews, and the two most common words in them are quality and service.
Plenty of printed mouse mats curl at the corners within a month and take the design with them. Ours is a firm 3mm mat at 235 by 196mm, wide enough for a proper sweep and stiff enough to stay flat on the desk.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I have bought products from these guys several times now and have always been impressed with service and product quality." (Colin H.)

HMS Hermes Returns Mouse Mat For A Desk That Remembers
The mat gives a keyboard 235 by 196mm of proper working room, enough space for the design to sit clearly rather than get cramped at the edges. Veteran-owned, and built for the desk of anyone who was on board, waiting on the dockside, or simply following the news that day. It sits well alongside the wider Falklands War range for anyone building a small tribute across more than one item. A desk gets far more daily attention than a photograph tucked away in a drawer somewhere out of sight.
The Thinking Behind HMS Hermes Returns
The return to Portsmouth carried both relief and loss in the same afternoon, and this design holds both without picking one over the other. The firm 3mm base and rubber backing keep it flat and steady through daily use, giving that mixed memory a permanent place on the desk rather than one day a year. It captures a moment that thousands lived through in very different ways, all at once, on the same July afternoon.
HMS Hermes Returns Mouse Mat That Gets It Right
The print is high-definition and fade-resistant, so the wording stays sharp and legible for years rather than fading into an illegible grey blur under office lighting. A damp cloth is all it ever needs, keeping the design looking exactly as intended for as long as it sits on the desk day after day. It is a quiet, steady way of keeping that homecoming somewhere it gets seen, long after the anniversary coverage moves on to something else.
HMS Hermes Returns Mouse Mat FAQ
What is the mouse mat made from?
It is a firm 3mm base at 235 by 196mm with a smooth fabric top and a rubber backing that stops it sliding on the desk. The design is printed in high definition, sharp and fade-resistant, and needs nothing more than a wipe with a damp cloth to keep it looking new for years.
Is it bigger than a standard mouse mat?
Yes, at 235 by 196mm it gives more working room than the thin giveaway mats most desks end up with, and the extra space means the wording stays clear rather than cramped at the edges. The firm base also stops it curling, so the wording stays flat and legible.
How fast will it arrive, and can it be personalised?
Orders are produced within 1 to 2 working days and shipped in 1 to 3 days from there. This design is fixed and cannot be personalised, so what arrives matches the page exactly, wording and all.
Who is this actually for?
It is for anyone who was aboard HMS Hermes or any of the ships that made the same journey home, or family who remember the day it returned. It works just as well for friends and supporters who remember the mood of that homecoming even without having served themselves, and want to mark it properly.
