Outdoor Skandia Pillow - Indigo

Details at a Glance

This pillow uses solution-dyed polyester and quick-drying fill materials engineered to withstand rain, UV exposure, and humidity without fading or mildewing. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Skandia Pillow in indigo multicolor is a 22-inch square outdoor pillow available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Hand-cut and sewn in California, it delivers lasting color retention and weather resistance for patio seating and pool decks.

Will This Fabric Hold Its Color Through Full Sun Exposure?

Yes -- solution-dyed polyester locks indigo pigment into the fiber before weaving, so color is part of the strand rather than a surface treatment that washes or burns off. That structure provides UV resistance that prevents significant fading season after season. The fabric also repels water, so rain and pool splashes dry quickly between uses without promoting mildew or mold growth. While all outdoor textiles experience gradual color shift over years of direct sun, solution-dyed polyester holds its intensity far longer than printed or surface-dyed fabrics that fade in a single summer.

How Do You Clean and Maintain This Pillow?

Spot clean the cover with mild soap and water for routine maintenance, or unzip the hidden closure and remove the cover for hand washing when needed. Both the cover and the synthetic fill insert should air-dry completely before you reassemble the pillow. Storing pillows indoors during extended rainy periods or over winter prolongs their lifespan, though the water-resistant construction handles occasional rain exposure without damage. Never machine-dry the cover or insert, as high heat can degrade synthetic fibers and fill material over time.

Where Does This Pillow Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The 22-inch square size provides optimal neck and head support for lounge chairs, outdoor sofas, and sectionals in covered or open-air settings. Layer this indigo multicolor pattern with neutral tones from the outdoor pillows collection to create visual balance on outdoor accent chairs and daybeds. The color intensity pairs well with coastal, Mediterranean, and modern farmhouse aesthetics, making it a versatile choice for both residential patios and commercial hospitality seating.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this pillow stay outside all year?

The solution-dyed polyester and quick-drying fill are built for year-round outdoor use, though storing the pillow indoors during extended wet periods or harsh winters prolongs its lifespan and maintains color intensity.

Will the indigo color fade in direct sunlight?

The solution-dyed polyester provides UV resistance that prevents significant fading, though all outdoor textiles experience gradual color shift over years of direct sun exposure.

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

Yes -- the synthetic polyester fabric resists salt air and moisture far better than natural fibers, making it well-suited for poolside and coastal patio environments.

Can the pillow get rained on?

The water-resistant construction handles rain exposure and will air-dry naturally, though bringing it under cover during extended storms helps maintain its shape and color over time.

How is this pillow different from printed outdoor fabric?

Solution-dyed polyester locks color into the fiber before weaving, so the pigment runs through the entire strand rather than sitting on the surface, delivering far longer fade resistance than screen-printed fabrics.

Does this ship with setup or assembly included?

Free curbside delivery is included to the continental USA; the pillow arrives ready to use, with no assembly required.
