Outdoor Indiana Lumbar Pillow - Linen

Details at a Glance

Solution-dyed polyester locks color into the fiber before the fabric is woven, so this pillow won't bleach out after a summer of direct sun or fade when rain hits it. The D.V. Kap Indiana lumbar pillow in linen, a weather-resistant outdoor pillow measuring 24 in. wide by 12 in. tall, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Hand-cut and sewn in California, the water-resistant cover sheds moisture and dries fast after a storm.

How Does Solution-Dyed Polyester Handle Full Sun and Rain?

The dye penetrates every fiber before the thread is made, which means UV can't strip color from the surface the way it does with surface-printed fabrics. You'll see minimal fading even after multiple seasons in direct sunlight. The water-resistant treatment repels rain so the cover doesn't soak through, and the fabric dries quickly once the weather clears. Solution-dyed polyester also resists mildew growth because it doesn't hold moisture the way cotton or untreated blends do.

Do You Need to Bring It Inside Every Time It Rains?

No -- the cover is built to shed water, so a passing shower won't hurt it. For heavy storms or extended rain, you'll get more life out of the pillow if you tuck it under cover or move it indoors, but an occasional soaking won't wreck the fabric. The removable cover has a hidden zipper, so you can pull it off and let the insert air out if it does get thoroughly wet. At the end of the season, store the insert indoors and wash the cover before you put it away.

Where Does a 24x12-Inch Lumbar Pillow Work Best?

This rectangular shape is designed to fit vertically against the back of outdoor sofas and sectionals, filling the gap at your lower spine so you're not hunching forward during long dinners or conversation. The 24-inch width covers a standard seat depth without bunching. It also works on porch swings, Adirondack chairs, or dining benches where you want real back support instead of a decorative square throw. Layer it with coordinating pieces from the outdoor pillows collection, or pair it with furniture from the outdoor accent chairs range for a pulled-together look across your patio.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this pillow fade in direct sun?

Solution-dyed polyester resists UV degradation, so you'll see minimal color loss even after multiple seasons of full-sun exposure.

Can this pillow get rained on?

Yes -- the water-resistant cover sheds rain and dries quickly. For heavy storms, moving it under cover extends its lifespan.

Does solution-dyed polyester resist mildew?

Yes, because the fabric doesn't absorb and hold moisture the way untreated natural fibers do.

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

Solution-dyed polyester won't corrode, but rinse the cover periodically to prevent salt buildup that can stiffen the fabric over time.

Can you remove the cover for cleaning?

Yes -- a hidden zipper lets you pull the cover off the insert. Spot clean the cover as needed.

Does this ship fully assembled?
