The D.V. Kap Outdoor Katoo Pillow in Charcoal is built around 100% solution-dyed Sunbrella acrylic -- fabric engineered to resist UV fade, water, and mildew across years of full-sun exposure. This 22x22-inch outdoor pillow is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Handcrafted in California, it pairs contract-grade durability with a neutral charcoal tone that layers cleanly across seating from modern sectionals to coastal porch swings.

Why Does Solution-Dyed Sunbrella Outlast Other Outdoor Fabrics?

Solution-dyed Sunbrella locks color into the acrylic fiber before weaving, so UV rays can't strip pigment the way they do with surface-printed fabrics. The result is color that holds for five-plus years in direct sun, with no bleaching or fading after a single season. Sunbrella acrylic also sheds water quickly and resists mold growth, even in humid or coastal climates where salt air accelerates fabric breakdown. The Katoo pillow's hidden zipper lets you remove the cover for washing, keeping both fabric and insert fresh without compromising weather resistance.

Can This Pillow Stay Outside All Year?

Yes -- Sunbrella acrylic handles rain and full sun without degrading, and the fabric air-dries quickly after a storm. If you live in a region with heavy snow or freezing rain, bringing pillows indoors or storing them in a covered bin extends their life and prevents unnecessary wear on the insert. For milder climates or covered patios, the Katoo pillow can remain on furniture year-round with occasional spot cleaning.

Where Does a Charcoal Outdoor Pillow Work Best?

The Katoo's neutral charcoal tone anchors layered arrangements on [outdoor accent chairs](/collections/outdoor-accent-chairs), dining benches, or poolside loungers. Pair it with lighter-toned [outdoor pillows](/collections/outdoor-pillows) to build contrast on sectionals, or use several to unify a mix of seating styles on an open deck. It complements both modern metal frames and natural teak, and the square silhouette fits most outdoor furniture without custom sizing. Browse [outdoor accessories](/collections/outdoor-accessories) to layer texture, or add [weather-resistant wall art](/collections/outdoor-wall-art) to tie the palette across the whole patio.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this pillow fade in direct sun?

No -- solution-dyed Sunbrella acrylic is engineered for UV resistance and retains color in full sun for years, unlike printed outdoor fabrics that fade in one season.

Can outdoor pillows get rained on?

Yes -- Sunbrella acrylic sheds water and air-dries rapidly. Storing pillows during heavy storms extends their life, but the fabric is built to handle occasional rain.

How do I clean the cover?

Unzip the removable cover and spot-clean with mild soap and water, or machine-wash on a gentle cycle. The hidden zipper makes maintenance simple.

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

Yes -- Sunbrella acrylic resists mildew and UV damage in humid, salt-air environments where cheaper fabrics break down quickly.

How do I store it over winter?

In milder climates or covered areas, the pillow can stay outside. In regions with freezing rain or heavy snow, store it indoors in a dry bin to preserve the insert.

Does this pillow ship free?

Yes -- LOOMLAN Outdoor ships this pillow free to the continental USA with no minimum order, delivered curbside.
