Light cushion at one brand is not the same thickness as at another; the words are each maker’s own.
Before you buy
Every brand prints its own size chart, and a medium at one maker is not a medium at another. Open the size chart for the brand you choose, or use the size finder with the exact model. Then check the heel, toes and cuff in your own shoes with the fit checklist.
Washing settings differ by maker too: the care lookup gives each model’s own instruction.
