Outdoor Linus Pillow - Indigo

Details at a Glance

Solution-dyed polypropylene fabric locks color into every fiber before weaving, so this 22-inch square pillow resists fading under full-sun exposure and sheds rain without soaking through. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Linus Pillow in Indigo, a 22x22-inch weather-resistant pillow handcrafted in California, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. A hidden zipper and removable cover let you spot-clean or store the insert over winter without replacing the whole pillow.

Will Polypropylene Fabric Really Hold Up to Sun and Rain?

Yes -- solution-dyed polypropylene resists UV fade, mildew, and water damage because the indigo color is part of the fiber itself, not surface-applied dye. That means full-sun patios and poolside loungers won't bleach the deep blue-black hue through an entire season of exposure. The fabric also wicks moisture and dries quickly after rain, preventing the mildew bloom you'd see on untreated cotton or polyester outdoor pillows. Because it's engineered for commercial-grade outdoor use, the material holds its structural integrity through temperature swings and daily handling.

Can This Pillow Stay Outside All Year, or Do You Store It?

This pillow can handle full-sun exposure and rain, but extended soaking or storage in wet conditions will shorten its lifespan. The removable cover and insert make seasonal storage straightforward -- unzip, pull the insert, and stack both indoors during prolonged wet weather or winter freeze-thaw cycles. For spot cleaning between seasons, use mild soap and water on the polypropylene cover; deeper cleaning is fine for the removable cover if you air-dry it completely before reassembly. The hidden zipper keeps the seam concealed during use but opens wide enough for easy access.

Where Does This 22-Inch Square Pillow Work Best?

Layer this indigo pillow with lighter-toned outdoor pillows on neutral sectionals or teak lounge chairs to balance the deep color across your seating arrangement. The 22x22-inch profile fits standard patio chairs, porch swings, and the seat backs of outdoor accent chairs without overwhelming smaller frames. For coastal or poolside settings, pair it with fade-resistant complementary tones in the outdoor accessories collection to create visual interest while keeping every piece equally resistant to salt air and chlorine splash.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this pillow get rained on?

Yes -- the water-resistant polypropylene sheds rain and dries rapidly, though you should avoid leaving it submerged or stored wet for long periods.

Will the indigo color fade in direct sun?

The solution-dyed polypropylene locks color into the fiber before weaving, dramatically reducing fade even under full-sun exposure over multiple seasons.

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

Yes -- polypropylene resists mildew and moisture damage, and the synthetic fiber won't corrode or degrade from salt air the way untreated natural fabrics can.

Do you have to bring it inside for winter?

The pillow can handle cold, but the removable cover and insert make it easy to store indoors during prolonged wet or freezing conditions to extend lifespan.

How do you clean this pillow?

Spot clean the removable cover with mild soap and water; for deeper cleaning, unzip and wash the cover, then air-dry completely before reassembling.

Does this ship assembled, or do you add the insert yourself?

The pillow arrives with the insert inside and the cover zipped -- free curbside delivery to the continental USA, no assembly required.
