Ivy Striped Outdoor Throw Pillows - Weather Resistant Patio Pillow

Details at a Glance

Stripe-pattern throw pillows built from woven polyester slub hold up to sun and rain better than cotton alternatives. The Ivy Striped Outdoor Throw Pillows in a 20 in. square format are available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping.

How Well Does Polyester Slub Handle Sun and Moisture?

Polyester resists UV breakdown and color fade far longer than natural fibers, and the slubbed weave adds texture while maintaining that resistance. These pillows are designed to handle rain and humidity without growing mildew as quickly as cotton, though the fabric will still show gradual fading over multiple seasons of direct sun exposure. The woven construction dries faster than tightly quilted fills, so water doesn't sit in the cushion after a storm.

Do You Need to Bring These Inside for Winter?

You can leave them out through occasional rain, but storing them in a deck box or covered bin when temperatures drop protects the polyester from ice expansion and keeps the hidden zipper from corroding. Machine wash the cover separately in cold water on a gentle cycle before storing -- remove it promptly and air dry, never tumble dry or bleach. The zipper lets you pull the fill out for off-season storage if you want the cover to take up less space.

Where Do Striped Pillows Work Best Outdoors?

A 20 in. square fits Adirondack chairs, porch rockers, and the arms of outdoor sectionals without overwhelming smaller frames. Layer these with solid-hue cushions from the outdoor pillows collection to build contrast, or pair them with outdoor accent chairs that already carry a bold pattern -- the classic stripe works as a neutral bridge. Blue suits coastal schemes; Natural blends into farmhouse or modern palettes when you anchor it with pieces from the outdoor accessories range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can outdoor throw pillows get rained on?

Yes -- polyester construction handles rain, though bringing them under cover during heavy downpours extends their lifespan and keeps the fill from staying saturated.

Will the stripe pattern fade in direct sun?

Polyester slub resists fading better than cotton, and the woven structure helps maintain color, but all outdoor textiles will show some sun exposure after multiple seasons.

How do you clean these pillow covers?

Machine wash separately in cold water on a gentle cycle, remove promptly, and air dry -- never tumble dry or use bleach. The hidden zipper lets you pull the fill out before washing.

Is polyester a good fabric for outdoor pillows?

Yes -- polyester and acrylic offer strong fade resistance and dry faster than cotton, making them practical for patio furniture that sees regular sun and moisture.

Can you leave outdoor pillows outside all year?

While these pillows are built for outdoor conditions, storing them in a covered area or deck box when not in use prolongs their appearance and prevents zipper corrosion over winter.

Does the pillow come with a fill insert?

The cover includes a fill; the hidden zipper allows you to remove or replace the insert for cleaning or seasonal storage. Curbside delivery is free -- setup and packaging removal are optional paid services available upon request.
