Outdoor Bedford Pillow - Black

Details at a Glance

Rain and spills slide off polypropylene in minutes -- this pillow dries fast and holds its color through seasons of full sun. The D.V. Kap Bedford Pillow in black is a 22-inch square fade-resistant outdoor pillow available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Each cover is hand-cut and sewn to order in California, with a hidden zipper so you can pull it off and clean it when needed.

How Well Does Polypropylene Hold Up Against Sun and Rain?

Polypropylene fiber is UV-stabilized and solution-dyed, which means the color runs all the way through the strand -- it won't bleach out the way surface-dyed fabric does. This pillow is engineered to repel water and dry quickly after storms, and it resists mildew even in humid coastal zones. You'll still see some gradual fade after years of extreme UV exposure, but the material holds up far longer than cotton or standard polyester outdoors.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

The polypropylene shell can handle freeze-thaw cycles, but storing pillows indoors during long wet periods or heavy snow extends their life. If you leave them out all year, bring them in during extended rain and let them dry completely between uses to prevent mildew on the insert. The removable cover makes off-season storage simple -- unzip it, wash it if needed, and pack it flat.

Where Does a 22-Inch Black Pillow Work Best?

The square profile suits deep-seat lounge chairs and sectionals, and black grounds brighter accent pillows when you layer color into the mix. Pair two or three on a wide outdoor sofa, or stack one on an outdoor accent chair with a lumbar cushion for back support. You'll find coordinating fade-resistant options across the outdoor pillows collection, and the neutral tone carries through to outdoor accessories if you want a cohesive look.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this pillow stay outside all year?

The polypropylene shell resists UV and moisture, but bringing it in during extended wet weather or winter prolongs its life and keeps the insert fresh.

Will the black fade in direct sun?

The UV-stabilized polypropylene is fade-resistant and holds color through multiple seasons of full sun, though all outdoor fabrics age gradually with extreme exposure.

How do I clean the cover?

Unzip the hidden closure, spot-clean the cover with mild soap and water, air-dry completely, then reassemble.

Is it suitable for a coastal or salt-air location?

Yes -- polypropylene resists salt air and mildew, making it a solid choice for seaside patios.

Can the pillow get rained on?

Yes, the water-resistant shell sheds rain and dries quickly, though you should store it during prolonged wet periods to protect the insert.

Does this ship fully assembled?

Yes -- free standard curbside delivery to the continental USA; the pillow arrives ready to use.
