Outdoor Skandia Lumbar Pillow - Linen

Details at a Glance

Solution-dyed polyester holds its color through full-sun seasons and sheds water after storm exposure without absorbing moisture into the fiber. The Outdoor Skandia Lumbar Pillow in Linen -- a 24 in. W x 12 in. H cushion with removable cover and insert -- is handcrafted in California and available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The hidden-zipper construction lets you pull the cover for cleaning while the insert dries independently.

How Does Solution-Dyed Polyester Hold Up Against UV and Rain?

Solution-dyeing locks pigment into the fiber during extrusion, not as a surface coating, so UV exposure won't strip the color over time. Water beads on the surface and the fabric dries quickly after rain, minimizing the risk of mildew or rot that cotton and linen blends invite. You'll see slower fade progression than conventionally dyed outdoor fabrics, and moisture won't soak through to the insert during brief downpours. The material is engineered for direct sun and seasonal weather without constant replacement.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

The fabric and insert resist water and UV, but prolonged exposure to snow, ice, and freeze-thaw cycles will still degrade the seams and fill faster than indoor storage would. Bring it inside or into a covered storage bin when temperatures drop consistently below freezing, and brush off any accumulated debris before storing to prevent mildew during dormant months. Quick-dry construction means you can leave it out through spring and fall rain without worry -- just pull it in before the first hard freeze.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

Layer it at the lower-back zone of deep-seat sectionals, Adirondack chairs, or sling recliners where lumbar support is weakest. Pair it with coordinating pieces from our outdoor pillows collection for a cohesive look, or anchor the seating area with items from outdoor accent chairs and outdoor accessories. The 24-inch width covers standard seat backs, and the 6-inch depth provides firm ergonomic lift without sliding down as you lean back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stay outside all year?

The fabric and insert resist rain and sun, but you should store it indoors during freezing winters to protect the seams and fill from ice damage.

Will the fabric fade in direct sun?

Solution-dyed polyester embeds color at the fiber level, so it fades far more slowly than surface-dyed fabrics under full UV exposure.

Can outdoor pillows get rained on?

Yes -- the water-resistant construction repels moisture and dries quickly after rain, though storing it during heavy storms extends lifespan.

How do I clean the cover?

Unzip the hidden closure, remove the cover, and spot-clean or hand-wash it; the removable insert stays dry while the cover is off.

What size lumbar pillow fits most outdoor sofas?

A 24 x 12-inch pillow like this one provides full lower-back coverage on standard-depth sectionals and lounge chairs.

Does this ship fully assembled?

Yes, the pillow arrives with cover and insert assembled; free curbside delivery is included to the continental USA.
