Pillows that soak through, fade to nothing, or fall apart after one summer teach you to check the material first. The D.V. Kap Maylis pillow uses a UV-resistant poly blend and water-repellent finish, hand-cut and sewn in California for full-sun decks and poolside use. The Maylis Handmade Outdoor Pillow is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping.
Will This Pillow Fade in Full Sun?
No -- the 78.73% Poly(UV) and 21.27% SeaQPolUV fabric blend resists UV damage and holds its tan color even with daily full-sun exposure. Standard indoor pillows bleach out in weeks; this one is engineered to stay put season after season. The synthetic fiber construction also prevents the brittleness and cracking that heat causes in lower-grade outdoor fabrics.
Does Water Soak Through When It Rains?
The water-resistant finish repels moisture and prevents soaking, so the fill doesn't turn into a soggy brick after a storm. While the fabric sheds rain, storing the pillow under cover during extended downpours or winter months extends its color vibrancy and keeps the insert dry. The hidden zipper makes it easy to remove the cover for spot cleaning when you bring it back out.
Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?
The 22 x 22-inch square size fits deep-seating sectionals and outdoor accent chairs, while the 12 x 24-inch lumbar shape adds lower-back support to benches and porch swings. Pair it with other pieces from the outdoor pillows collection for a layered look, or use it to soften metal and wood finishes on your furniture. At 4 lbs for the square and 3 lbs for the lumbar, you can reposition them without effort. The tan color coordinates with natural wood, wicker, and outdoor accessories in neutral or earth-tone palettes.
