Outdoor Pella Pillow - Blue

Details at a Glance

Solution-dyed polyester means the pigment is bonded at the fiber level before the fabric is woven, so the color can't wash out or bleach away under UV exposure the way surface-dyed fabrics do. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Pella Pillow in blue is a 22-inch fade-resistant outdoor throw pillow with hidden-zipper construction and water-repellent fabric, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Handcrafted in California, this weather-resistant pillow uses removable-cover design to simplify spot cleaning and withstand rain exposure without mildewing.

How Well Does Solution-Dyed Polyester Hold Up in Full Sun and Rain?

Solution-dyed polyester integrates pigment at the molecular level during fiber production, so UV rays can't strip the color the way they fade surface-printed or dyed-after-weaving fabrics. This pillow's construction resists moisture from summer storms and high humidity, repelling water rather than absorbing it and allowing the fabric to dry quickly between downpours. The synthetic fiber won't mildew when damp, and repeated exposure to sun, rain, and temperature swings doesn't compromise the fabric's integrity or color saturation over multiple seasons.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You can leave this pillow on covered porch furniture through mild winters, but storing it indoors or in a deck box during prolonged rain, snow, or freezing conditions extends its lifespan. Remove the cover via the hidden zipper for spot cleaning or end-of-season washing, and allow both the cover and insert to dry fully before storing to prevent any moisture from being trapped. Even weather-resistant polyester benefits from protection during months of continuous harsh exposure, so if your patio sees heavy snow or weeks of rain, bring the pillows in.

Where Does a 22-Inch Square Pillow Work Best on a Patio?

This size pairs well with lounge chairs, outdoor sectionals, and porch swings where you want cushioned back support without overwhelming the seat depth. Layer it with other outdoor pillows in complementary grey or white tones on a neutral sofa, or use multiples across outdoor accent chairs for a cohesive look. The blue-grey palette complements coastal themes and poolside furniture, and its fade resistance makes it a practical choice for full-sun exposures where cheaper pillows would bleach out in a season.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this pillow stay outside all year?

It can remain on covered furniture through mild winters, but storing it indoors during prolonged rain, snow, or freezing weather extends its usable life and prevents moisture accumulation.

Will the blue fade in direct sun?

The solution-dyed polyester is engineered to resist UV degradation and retains color saturation through continuous sun exposure, unlike surface-dyed fabrics that bleach quickly.

Can it get rained on without damage?

Yes, the water-resistant polyester sheds moisture and dries quickly after storms, though storing it under cover during heavy or multi-day rain helps maintain long-term durability.

How do you clean the cover?

Unzip the hidden closure, remove the cover, and spot clean or hand wash it, then allow it to dry fully before reassembling.

Does this work in a salt-air location?

The synthetic polyester fabric resists salt-air corrosion and moisture better than natural fibers, making it suitable for coastal porches and pool decks.

Is assembly or setup required?

No setup is needed -- the pillow ships fully assembled with the insert in the cover and ready to place on your furniture. Free curbside delivery is included to the continental USA.
