Full Specifications

What Is an Outdoor Pillow?

An outdoor pillow is a decorative cushion engineered with UV-resistant, water-repellent fabrics -- typically solution dyed acrylic or Sunbrella -- to resist fading, mildew, and moisture damage in exterior environments. Unlike indoor throw pillows, outdoor cushions feature tightly woven fibers and hidden zippers that protect inserts from rain and humidity while maintaining color vibrancy season after season.

What You Get With the D.V. Kap Outdoor Café Stripe Pillow

1. Solution Dyed Acrylic Fabric -- 100% solution dyed acrylic locks color into every fiber before weaving, delivering fade resistance even in full-sun exposure.
2. Water Resistant Construction -- tightly woven acrylic repels moisture and resists mildew, allowing the pillow to handle unexpected rain or morning dew.
3. Removable Cover & Insert -- hidden zipper closure lets you remove the cover for easy spot cleaning and keeps the insert protected from the elements.
4. Handcrafted in California -- each pillow is hand cut and sewn to order in California, ensuring quality control and supporting USA manufacturing.
5. 22-Inch Square Dimensions -- 22 x 22 inch profile with a 6-inch depth provides substantial support for outdoor sofas, benches, and lounge seating.
6. Café Stripe Design in Aqua -- vibrant aqua and grey striped pattern adds a coastal, resort-inspired accent to patios, decks, and poolside furniture.

How Do You Style Fade Resistant Outdoor Pillows on Patio Furniture?

Layer this café-stripe outdoor pillow with solid-color outdoor pillows on sectional seating to create depth, or pair two on a porch swing for symmetry and comfort. Anchor the aqua palette with natural teak or wicker living room furniture pieces, and repeat the stripe motif in outdoor dining chairs or dining room furniture bench cushions for a cohesive resort-inspired look.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are sunbrella pillows worth it?

Yes -- solution dyed acrylic (the fabric class Sunbrella uses) locks pigment into fibers before weaving, delivering superior fade resistance, UV protection, and water repellency compared to printed or undyed textiles.

What makes a pillow weather resistant?

A weather resistant pillow uses tightly woven, hydrophobic fibers (like solution dyed acrylic) that repel moisture, resist UV degradation, and dry quickly to prevent mildew growth.

Can outdoor pillows get rained on?

Water resistant outdoor pillows like this D.V. Kap design can handle rain, but storing them under cover or bringing them indoors during prolonged wet weather extends their lifespan.

Do outdoor pillows fade in the sun?

Solution dyed acrylic outdoor pillows resist fading because color is embedded in the fiber itself, not surface-applied, so UV rays cannot strip pigment as easily.

How do you clean outdoor throw pillows?

Remove the cover via the hidden zipper and spot clean with mild soap and water; allow to air dry completely before reassembling.

Does this pillow come with free shipping?

Yes -- LOOMLAN offers free shipping on all orders to the continental USA with no minimum purchase.
