TL;DR: The size dropdown on our website shows whole numbers as reference points, not production limits. uscushion.com makes chaise lounge cushions in any dimension, including half-inches, unusual lengths, and wide double-chaise sizes. Write your exact measurements in the order notes at checkout and we'll sew to those specs. No extra charge for non-standard sizing.
Cindy from California had a problem that sounds simple but stumped her for a while.
She needed a chaise lounge cushion that was 25.5 inches wide. Not 25. Not 26. Twenty-five and a half.
She went to the product page, found the size dropdown, and saw a list of whole numbers. No 25.5 anywhere. So she did what a lot of people do: she reached out to ask whether we could actually make her size, or whether she was stuck choosing the closest whole number and hoping for the best.
The answer: we can absolutely make 25.5 inches. Or 24. Or 76.75. Or any other number she could write down.
The dropdown is there to make the ordering process faster for people with standard sizes. It's a shortcut, not a ceiling. Every cushion we make is cut from scratch after you order, which means the width, length, and thickness are set by your measurements, not by what fits in a menu.
If you've been hesitating to order because your chaise doesn't match a standard size, this guide is for you.
Why Does the Website Only Show Whole Numbers?
Does uscushion.com only make cushions in standard sizes?
No. The size dropdown shows common reference points to simplify checkout for most orders. Your actual dimensions go in the order notes field, and those are what our tailors use to cut and sew your cushion. Any size is possible, including half-inches and unusual lengths.
Every cushion at uscushion.com is made to order. Nothing sits pre-cut in a warehouse waiting to ship. When your order comes through, a tailor takes your exact specifications and starts from scratch: measuring the fabric, cutting to your dimensions, sewing the cover, and inserting the foam.
That process is identical whether you order a 26-inch standard width or a 25.5-inch custom width. The extra half-inch doesn't add complexity or cost. It just gets written into the cut sheet.
The dropdown exists because most people have chairs that fall near standard sizes, and selecting from a list is faster than typing measurements. But for anyone whose chair doesn't fit neatly into those options, the notes field is where the real order happens.
Cindy's Story: 25.5 Inches, 5 Cushions, Zero Compromise
Cindy needed cushions for both a chaise lounge and a bench, a total of five pieces. Her chaise was 25.5 inches wide, which put it right between the standard options on the site.
She contacted us before ordering to confirm that the non-standard width was actually possible. Once she had confirmation, she placed her order, selected the closest size in the dropdown as a placeholder, and wrote her exact dimensions in the notes: 25.5" width, along with the correct length and thickness for each piece.
Her five cushions were made to those exact specifications. No rounding, no guessing, no "close enough."
Cindy's approach is exactly right. Here's the thing: it's not actually necessary to contact us first to confirm that a non-standard size is possible. The answer is always yes. But if it makes you feel more confident to check before ordering, we're always happy to confirm.
Sizes We've Made for Real Customers
Non-standard sizing is not an edge case for us. It's a routine part of almost every order. Here are real dimensions from actual customer orders:
- 24" wide (Glynda, FL): her chaise was 24 inches wide and she wasn't sure if it was possible. It was.
- 25.5" wide (Cindy, CA): the case study above. Five cushions at a non-whole-number width.
- 76.75" long: a specific length that appears on one of our product listing images, showing a real chair's dimensions. Standard products at this length don't exist. Custom ones do.
- 50" wide: a double chaise lounge seat area. Far outside standard single-chair dimensions. Made without issue.
- 22" wide: on the narrower end of typical chaise sizes, but completely achievable.
The pattern here is clear. There's no width, length, or thickness we've turned away because it was too unusual. If you can measure it, we can make it. For very large dimensions, like a wide double chaise, see our double chaise lounge cushion guide for specific measuring advice.
How to Order a Non-Standard Size: Step by Step
How do I order a chaise lounge cushion in a non-standard size?
Select the closest size in the dropdown on the product page, then write your exact measurements in the order notes at checkout. Include width, length, and thickness. If you have multiple sections (seat and back), note each one separately. You have 48 hours after payment to correct or update any dimension for free.
Here's the full process:
Step 1: Measure your chair frame. Width, seat depth, back height, and thickness preference. If you need a refresher on how to measure, see our chaise lounge measuring guide before you order.
Step 2: Go to the product page. Visit the custom chaise lounge cushion page and choose your fabric (indoor or outdoor).
Step 3: Select the closest size in the dropdown. This is just a placeholder. If your chair is 25.5" wide, select either 25" or 26". It doesn't matter which, because the dropdown value doesn't control production.
Step 4: Write your exact dimensions in the order notes. Use a format like this: "Width: 25.5". Seat depth: 52". Back height: 30". Thickness: 3"." If you have two sections, note them separately: "Seat: 25.5" W x 52" D. Back: 25.5" W x 30" H."
Step 5: Complete payment. Production begins within 48 hours.
Step 6: Email us if you need to adjust. If you catch an error in your measurements after ordering, email support@uscushion.com with your order number and the correction. Free changes are possible within 48 hours of payment.
That's the entire process. No phone calls required, no special forms, no extra fees.
Does Non-Standard Sizing Cost More?
No. Custom sizing is included in the standard price. Whether your cushion is 24 inches wide or 26.5 inches wide, the price is the same for the same fabric and thickness.
The factors that affect price are fabric choice (indoor vs. outdoor, standard vs. premium), overall cushion size (larger cushions use more material), and whether you're ordering foam plus cover or cover only. The specific dimensions within a similar size range don't change the price.
If you're ordering something significantly larger than a standard single chaise, like a 50-inch wide double chaise seat, the price will reflect the larger size. But that's because it's genuinely bigger, not because it's non-standard.

Your Chair Fits. Your Cushion Should Too.
The most common reason people end up with ill-fitting cushions is that they settled for the closest standard size rather than ordering to their actual measurements. A cushion that's half an inch too narrow bunches at the sides. One that's two inches too long hangs off the frame and eventually folds under.
Custom sizing exists so you don't have to settle. Your chair is the size it is. Your cushion should match it exactly.
Three things to remember:
- The dropdown is a shortcut, not a limit. Use it as a placeholder and put your real dimensions in the notes.
- Half-inches and unusual lengths are completely normal. We've made them dozens of times.
- 48 hours to fix mistakes, free. If you enter the wrong number, email us before production starts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you make a chaise lounge cushion that is 24 inches wide?
Yes. 24 inches is a non-standard width that falls outside most dropdown options, but it's a completely normal custom size for us. Select the closest size in the dropdown, write "Width: 24 inches" in the order notes, and we'll cut to that dimension. Glynda from Florida ordered exactly this and her cushion fit perfectly.
Can you make a cushion in a half-inch dimension like 25.5 inches wide?
Yes. Half-inches, quarter-inches, and any decimal measurement are all fine. Write the exact number in your order notes and we'll sew to it. The dropdown on the product page only shows whole numbers for simplicity, but production isn't limited to those values.
Does ordering a non-standard size cost extra?
No. Custom sizing is included in the standard price. The price is determined by fabric choice, overall cushion size, and whether you're ordering foam plus cover or cover only. The specific non-standard dimension within a comparable size range doesn't add to the cost.
What if I can't figure out how to enter my size on the website?
Select the closest size available in the dropdown as a placeholder, then write your exact dimensions in the order notes field at checkout. If you're having trouble, you can also email support@uscushion.com after placing your order and we'll update the specs manually before production begins.
What is the largest size you can make?
Contact us for very large dimensions. Single chaise lounges up to standard outdoor lengths (typically up to around 80 inches) are handled through the normal ordering process. For oversized double chaise seats or unusually long frames, email us first and we'll confirm what's possible and provide a quote.
