Outdoor Gilner Pillow - Stone

Details at a Glance

Outdoor pillows lose color and shape when UV rays and rain break down untreated fabrics, but the Outdoor Gilner Pillow in Stone resists both with a UV-resistant polyester blend that blocks sun damage and repels water. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Gilner Pillow, a 22 in. square weather-resistant outdoor pillow handcrafted in California, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The hidden zipper and removable cover make cleaning straightforward, so the pillow stays fresh through seasons of patio use.

Will the Fabric Fade in Full Sun?

No -- the Gilner Pillow's blend of UV-resistant polyester and SeaQPolUV fibers is engineered to withstand direct sunlight without fading or weakening. The tightly woven synthetic fabric blocks ultraviolet rays before they reach the dye, preserving the Stone grey tone even on south-facing decks or poolside loungers. Unlike cotton or linen, which bleach and fray under steady sun exposure, this UV-rated material holds its color season after season, so you won't need to replace pillows every spring.

Can This Stay Outside When It Rains?

Yes, the water-repellent construction sheds rain and dries quickly, making the pillow safe for covered porches and sudden showers. The synthetic fibers repel moisture instead of absorbing it, so water beads off the surface rather than soaking through to the insert. The hidden zipper closure is designed to keep the opening protected from weather. For prolonged downpours or winter storage, bringing the pillow indoors or into a dry bin extends its life, but it won't be ruined if caught in an afternoon storm.

How Do You Keep It Clean?

Unzip the cover, pull out the insert, and machine wash the cover on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, then air dry. The removable-cover design lets you treat spills or pollen without scrubbing the whole pillow, and the insert can be spot-cleaned as needed. This two-piece construction is faster to refresh than sewn-shut pillows and keeps mildew from forming inside, which matters in humid or coastal climates where moisture lingers.
