What Is a Weather Resistant Outdoor Pillow?

A weather resistant outdoor pillow is constructed from synthetic fibers -- typically solution-dyed acrylic or polyester -- that repel moisture, resist mildew, and maintain colorfastness under direct sunlight. Unlike standard indoor pillows, these products feature water-shedding covers, removable inserts, and UV-stable dyes that prevent fading in outdoor environments.

What You Get With the D.V. Kap Outdoor Skandia Pillow

1. Solution-Dyed Polyester Construction -- the fiber is dyed during extrusion, locking color deep within each strand for superior fade resistance compared to surface-dyed fabrics.
2. Water-Resistant Shell -- the cover sheds rain and pool splash, drying quickly to prevent mold and mildew growth.
3. Hidden Zipper -- the closure is concealed for a clean look and permits easy access to the removable insert for seasonal storage or cleaning.
4. Hand-Cut and Sewn in California -- each pillow is made to order in D.V. Kap's California workshop, ensuring quality control and supporting domestic manufacturing.
5. 22 x 22-Inch Square Format -- standard throw-pillow sizing fits most outdoor seating and layering schemes.
6. Gold Multicolor Palette -- the warm tones coordinate with natural wood, wicker, and metal outdoor furniture.

Where Do You Use Outdoor Throw Pillows for Full Sun?

Pair the Skandia pillow with deep-seated lounge chairs, sectionals, or porch swings in spaces that receive six or more hours of direct light daily. Layer with complementary decorative accent pillows or coordinate with indoor-outdoor rugs in your living room furniture and dining room furniture settings for a cohesive indoor-outdoor aesthetic.
