"Traditionally runners were 27" body.
Now we tend to cut from a bloadloom to customs spec and bind the edges. So you are able to get your exact size.

"Stair runners can be cut and bound or tucked under to any width. The old style stair runners were usually made in 27 inches wide."

"Most companies supply stair runners in 3 widths
60cm 70cm and 80cm. There is also bespoke available for any widths but will obviously be more expensive to purchase.
I hope this has helped."
