Outdoor Stratford Lumbar Pillow - Grey

Details at a Glance

Solution-dyed polyester locks color into the yarn before weaving, so this lumbar pillow holds grey through seasons of direct sun without the bleaching you see with printed outdoor fabrics. The D.V. Kap Stratford Lumbar Pillow in Grey is a 24 x 12 in. water-resistant cushion available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Handcrafted in California, it delivers lower-back support on patio sectionals, benches, and deep-seat chairs without fading or harboring mildew when rain hits.

How Does Solution-Dyed Polyester Hold Up to Sun and Rain?

Solution dyeing infuses pigment into the fiber itself before the yarn is spun, so UV rays can't strip color the way they do with surface-printed fabrics. This pillow resists fading through multiple seasons of full-sun exposure and repels rain with a water-resistant finish that sheds moisture instead of absorbing it. When splashed by poolside activity or caught in a storm, the fabric dries quickly and won't develop the mildew smell that plagues standard indoor-outdoor blends.

Do You Need to Bring It Inside After Every Rain?

No -- shake off excess water and let the pillow air-dry in a covered area; the water-resistant polyester is built for occasional rain. For extended downpours or winter storage, bring it inside or tuck it into a deck box to prolong the life of both the cover and the insert. The hidden zipper lets you remove the cover for separate cleaning, so you can wash away pollen and dirt without replacing the whole pillow.

Where Does This Grey Lumbar Pillow Work Best?

The 24-inch width spans most sectional seats and porch-swing backs, delivering targeted lower-back support wherever you sit longest. Layer it on a neutral outdoor sofa alongside brighter accent pieces from the outdoor pillows collection, or pair it with teak and wicker in your outdoor accent chairs zone for a coastal or modern aesthetic. The grey tone anchors color schemes on covered patios and poolside lounges, and it complements the natural finishes in the outdoor accessories range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this pillow stay outside all year?

The fabric resists UV fade and water, but bringing it inside or storing it in a deck box over winter extends the life of the insert and prevents dirt buildup.

Will the grey fade in direct sun?

Solution-dyed polyester holds color far better than printed fabrics because the pigment is locked into the yarn itself, resisting UV bleaching through multiple seasons.

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

Yes -- the water-resistant polyester and quick-dry construction prevent mildew in humid, salt-air environments when the pillow is allowed to air out between storms.

Can outdoor pillows get rained on?

Yes, this pillow's water-repellent finish sheds rain; shake off excess water and air-dry in a covered area to maintain longevity.

Does it come with the insert, or is that sold separately?

Both the removable cover and the insert are included; the hidden zipper lets you clean the cover or replace the insert as needed.

Does LOOMLAN Outdoor offer free shipping on this pillow?

Yes, free curbside delivery to the continental USA with no minimum order. White-glove placement and packaging removal are available upon request for an additional fee.
