Outdoor Charleston Pillow - Beach

Details at a Glance

When unprotected outdoor fabric fades and mildews after one season, Sunbrella acrylic keeps its color and structure through years of sun and rain. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Charleston Pillow in Beach, a 22 x 22 inch weather resistant outdoor pillow with removable cover and plush insert, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Solution-dyed construction means UV stability and water repellency are engineered into every fiber, not just coated on afterward.

How Does Sunbrella Acrylic Hold Up to Full Sun and Rain?

Sunbrella acrylic is solution-dyed -- color is locked into the fiber during manufacturing, not printed on top -- so UV exposure won't strip it the way it does with standard outdoor fabric. The weave repels water instead of soaking it up, which blocks mildew growth and prevents that damp-pillow smell after a storm. This fabric is rated for full-sun patio use and high-traffic hospitality settings, meaning it's built for seasons of exposure, not just occasional use.

Do You Need to Bring Outdoor Pillows Inside Every Night?

You don't have to haul them in after every use, but bringing them inside during heavy rain or storing them in a deck box when you're not using the patio will extend their life. The water resistant construction repels rain, but it's not waterproof -- long soaks will eventually work moisture into the insert. If you're near the coast or in a high-humidity area, covered storage between uses keeps mildew from taking hold even on Sunbrella.

Where Do You Use a 22-Inch Square Pillow on a Patio?

A 22 x 22 inch pillow fits standard patio chairs, outdoor sofas, and porch swings without overwhelming the seat or sliding off. Layer two or three across a deep-seat sectional for color and lumbar support, or pair this Beach pattern with solid-color outdoor pillows to pull together mismatched seating. It works just as well propped against the back of an outdoor accent chair or grouped on a daybed with other outdoor accessories. The hidden zipper keeps the closure out of sight, so the pillow looks finished from every angle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this pillow fade if it sits in direct sun all day?

Sunbrella acrylic is engineered for full-sun exposure with minimal fading over years of use, far outperforming standard outdoor fabric.

Can this stay outside all year in a covered patio?

It can handle year-round outdoor use if it's under a roof or overhang, but storing it in a deck box or indoors during the off-season prevents moisture buildup and extends longevity.

Is this pillow suitable for a coastal location with salt air?

Yes -- Sunbrella acrylic resists mildew and moisture damage, and the water-repellent weave handles humid, salt-air environments better than untreated fabric.

How do you clean a Sunbrella outdoor pillow?

Unzip the hidden closure, remove the cover, and spot-clean or machine wash cold; air dry flat and never use bleach or high heat.

Can outdoor pillows get rained on without ruining them?

This pillow's water resistant fabric repels rain, though storing it indoors or in a deck box during heavy storms prevents moisture from reaching the insert.

Does the pillow ship fully assembled, or do I need to stuff the insert myself?

It arrives complete with the insert already inside the cover, ready to use -- free curbside delivery to the continental USA with no assembly required.
