Outdoor Bluff Lumbar Pillow - Blue

Details at a Glance

An outdoor pillow that holds its color and structure after months of sun and rain makes patio furniture practical for more than a single season. The Outdoor Bluff Lumbar Pillow in Blue, a 24 x 12 x 6-inch fade-resistant outdoor pillow handcrafted in California, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. You're getting a two-piece lumbar cushion with a removable zippered cover, water-repellent polyester fabric, and a 6-inch depth designed for lower back support on dining chairs and lounge seating.

How Does 100% Polyester Fabric Stand Up to UV and Rain?

Polyester resists UV fade far more effectively than cotton or blends, holding dye color through seasons of direct sun exposure. The fabric on this pillow carries a water-repellent treatment that sheds rain and morning dew before moisture can soak through to the insert, preventing mold and mildew from taking hold. You'll see minimal color shift even if the pillow stays out on outdoor accent chairs through summer, and the fabric dries quickly after a shower. This isn't waterproof-sealed -- extended downpours will eventually saturate it -- but normal exposure to weather won't ruin the piece.

Do You Need to Bring It Inside Between Uses?

You don't have to haul it in after every afternoon, but storing this pillow indoors during long storms or the off-season extends its life noticeably. The water-resistant treatment handles light rain and dew without issue, so leaving it on a covered patio or under an umbrella works fine for day-to-day use. When you're done with the season, unzip the cover, machine wash it, and store both pieces in a dry bin or closet -- polyester doesn't wick moisture like down, so it won't mildew in storage as long as it's dry when you put it away.

Where Does This Lumbar Pillow Work Best on a Patio?

The 6-inch depth gives you real lower back support on dining chairs during long meals or on a lounge chair when you're reading. Pair it with other pieces from the outdoor pillows collection for a layered look across your seating, or use it solo on chairs that need just a bit of support without overwhelming the frame. It also works on benches or daybeds in covered outdoor accessories setups where you want comfort that can take occasional weather exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the blue color fade if this stays in direct sun all summer?

The 100% polyester fabric resists UV fade far better than cotton blends, so you'll see minimal color shift even after months of full sun exposure.

Can this pillow stay outside if it rains?

Yes, the water-repellent fabric sheds light rain and dew without soaking through, though storing it indoors during heavy or multi-day storms extends the life of the cover and insert.

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

The polyester fabric won't corrode or rust, and salt air doesn't degrade the material the way it does metal hardware, so it's a solid choice for decks near water.

How do you clean the cover when it gets dirty?

Unzip the cover, remove it from the insert, and machine wash it according to the care label. Air dry completely before reassembling.

Do I need to store this over winter?

It's not required for material survival, but keeping the pillow indoors during the off-season prevents unnecessary wear from freeze-thaw cycles and ice.

Does shipping cost extra?

No -- LOOMLAN Outdoor provides free curbside delivery to the continental USA with no minimum order.
