Outdoor Gilford Pillow - Festiv

Details at a Glance

Outdoor textiles need to repel moisture, resist mildew, and hold color through full-sun summers and storm-season downpours without fading or rotting. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Gilford Pillow in Festiv, a 22x22-inch fade-resistant outdoor throw pillow with removable cover and insert, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Handcrafted in California from 100% polyester, it's engineered to shed water, dry quickly, and maintain its multicolor Festiv pattern season after season.

Will This Pillow Fade After a Season in Full Sun?

No -- the 100% polyester fabric is fade resistant and constructed to hold color integrity under sustained UV exposure. Solution-dyed or treated synthetic fibers maintain vibrancy where cotton or untreated blends bleach out within months, so the multicolor Festiv pattern stays true through summers of direct sun on a deck or patio. Polyester also dries faster than natural fibers, reducing the risk of mildew and water stains that discolor cushions over time.

How Do You Care for It Between Seasons?

Unzip the hidden zipper and remove the cover for spot-cleaning or hand-washing with mild detergent, then air-dry completely before reassembling. While the pillow is designed to withstand rain and humidity, prolonged saturation in a downpour benefits from propping the cover open to air out the insert. Off-season, store the removable cover in a dry bin and keep the insert in a breathable bag -- polyester won't mildew in storage the way down or foam can, but keeping it dry extends its loft.

Where Does a 22x22-Inch Outdoor Pillow Work Best?

A square this size fits deep outdoor lounge chairs, sectional sofas, and porch swings where you want substantial back support or a layered look. The Festiv multicolor palette pairs well with solid neutrals from the outdoor pillows collection or coordinates with bolder patterns on outdoor accent chairs. Because the cover is removable, you can also rotate it indoors during winter months and use it on living room furniture, then return it to the patio come spring. Pair it with sculptural pieces from outdoor accessories to tie together a cohesive outdoor room.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this pillow get rained on?

Yes, the water-resistant polyester sheds moisture and dries quickly, though heavy prolonged rain may require air-drying the removable cover afterward.

Will it hold up in a coastal or salt-air location?

Polyester resists salt-air corrosion better than natural fibers, and the synthetic construction won't rot or mildew in humid climates.

How do you clean the cover?

Unzip the hidden zipper, remove the cover, hand-wash or spot-clean with mild detergent, and air-dry completely before putting it back on the insert.

Does this need to be brought inside for winter?

The pillow can withstand cold and moisture, but storing it indoors or in a deck box extends the life of the insert and keeps the cover cleaner.

Is the insert removable?

Yes, both cover and insert are removable via the hidden zipper for easy cleaning and seasonal storage.

Does this ship fully assembled?

It arrives ready to use -- cover and insert are included, and LOOMLAN Outdoor offers free curbside delivery to the continental USA.
