T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushions – Measuring & Care Guide

Custom T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushions for Sofas, Armchairs & Built-In Corners

T-shaped cushions can be awkward — but with the right measurements, they don’t have to be. Our T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushions are made to fit your cover exactly, restoring structure and softness without the sag. Whether you’re replacing tired foam or want a comfier alternative to feather, fibre’s the way to go for a plump, supportive, and low-maintenance seat.

📏 How to Measure T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushions – 5 Key Measurements

We base every T-shape cushion on your empty cover, not your old insert. Here’s how to get it right:

1️⃣  (A) – Measure from back to front 
2️⃣ (B) – Measure from side to side at the widest 
3️⃣  (C) –  Height of the cushion’s side or border
4️⃣  (D) – From the front edge to the very back of the lug 
5️⃣ (E) – Measure the back edge of the cushion

👉 All measurements should be taken seam to seam, flat and unstuffed. Don’t include piping or frills — just the stitched edges.

🎯 Why These Measurements Matter for T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushions

T-shaped cushions are notorious for poor fit when guessed. Measuring correctly ensures your new T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushion fits snugly into every corner, especially around the arms. We also use the border thickness to determine how much hollowfibre to fill it with — so you get that plump, supportive finish without it puffing up like a soufflé or collapsing like a soggy sandwich.

🛋️ Where T-Shape Fibre Cushions Are Typically Used

Our custom T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushions are commonly used for:

• Sofa and armchair seat bases (especially DFS, SCS, IKEA, and M&S models)

• L-shaped corner sofas with arm-overhangs

• Built-in seating with extended arm rests

• Traditional three-cushion layouts where arms curve into the base

T-shape cushions are a pain to get right with off-the-shelf foam, but a fibre-filled insert made to your exact measurements will sit properly and stay comfy for longer.

🪶 Fibre or Feather – Which is Best for T-Shaped Seats?

T-shape seats often need extra structure to stay looking smart. Feather cushions can sag in the arm sections if not plumped daily. Fibre is better at holding its shape, easier to care for, and still offers a nice soft feel — without needing a daily beating.

🧼 How to Care for T-Shape Fibre Seat Cushions

✅ Plump Daily – Keeps the arms and body section looking even
✅ Shake It Out Weekly – Prevents the fill from clumping
✅ Rotate If Possible – Especially helpful for wear on the arms
✅ Keep Dry – Avoid damp; fibre doesn’t like it
✅ Spot Clean Only – No soaking or machine washing

💡 Use a washable cover to protect the shape and keep cleaning easy — especially if the cushion is in daily use.
