100% polypropylene fabric resists UV damage and sheds rain without staining, so this pillow keeps its graphite color season after season in full sun. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Linus Pillow, a 22-inch square outdoor throw pillow handcrafted in California, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Water-resistant construction and a removable cover with a hidden zipper make cleaning and long-term use straightforward.

How Does Polypropylene Stand Up to Sun and Rain?

Polypropylene is engineered to resist UV damage, so this pillow maintains its graphite hue through full-sun exposure without the rapid fading that affects cotton or untreated outdoor textiles. The water-resistant finish sheds rain and spills -- moisture beads on the surface instead of soaking into the fill, which prevents mildew and staining. Prolonged full-sun exposure over multiple years may cause slight gradual lightening, but day-to-day performance far exceeds standard outdoor fabrics. Polypropylene is also mold- and mildew-resistant, so humidity and coastal salt air won't degrade the fiber or create odor.

Should You Bring This Pillow Inside for Winter?

This pillow can handle light rain and morning dew, but you should store it indoors or in a covered bin during heavy storms and off-season to prolong the cover's life. The polypropylene fabric itself won't rot or mildew if it gets wet, but repeated soaking and freeze-thaw cycles stress the hidden zipper and seams over time. If your patio furniture has a weatherproof storage box, the pillow fits easily at 22 inches square and can stay close at hand through winter.

Where Does This Pillow Work Best on a Patio?

The 22-inch square scale fits most outdoor sofas, sectionals, and deep-seat lounge chairs without overwhelming the cushion or sliding off the arm. Pair it with additional pillows from the outdoor pillows collection to layer texture and color across outdoor accent chairs or a daybed. The neutral graphite tone coordinates with teak, wicker, and powder-coated aluminum frames, and it anchors brighter accent colors if you want to rotate seasonal hues. Use it alongside outdoor accessories like lanterns and planters to tie the whole seating area together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this pillow stay outside all year?

The polypropylene fabric resists UV and moisture, but you should store the pillow during heavy storms and winter to preserve the zipper and seams. Light rain and daily sun exposure won't harm it.

Will the graphite color fade in direct sun?

Fade-resistant polypropylene minimizes color loss, so the graphite hue stays consistent through daily full-sun exposure. Years of continuous UV may cause slight gradual lightening.

How do you clean the cover?

Unzip the hidden closure, remove the cover, and spot clean with mild soap and water. Air dry completely before you reassemble the pillow -- never machine wash or tumble dry.

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

Yes, polypropylene resists salt air, mold, and mildew, so the pillow performs well in humid coastal climates. Store it in a covered bin when you're away to avoid prolonged salt spray on the zipper.

Does the pillow come fully assembled?

Yes, the cover and insert arrive assembled. Each pillow is hand cut and sewn to order in California, so lead times vary -- contact the store for the current production schedule.

Does LOOMLAN Outdoor offer free shipping on this pillow?

Yes, free standard curbside delivery to the continental USA with no minimum order.
