1. Where can I buy outdoor cushions online in New Zealand?

Bolt of Cloth has over 50 outdoor cushion designs available online, with delivery throughout New Zealand. Our range includes colourful patterns, plains and textures made from fabrics suitable for outdoor use, including Sunbrella® and polypropylene fabrics.

Whether you're furnishing a small balcony or a large outdoor living area, you can mix and match different colours, patterns and sizes to create your own look.

2. What are the best cushions for the New Zealand outdoors?

New Zealand's strong sun, wind and changing weather can be tough on outdoor furnishings, so look for cushions made from fabrics specifically designed for outdoor use.

Many of our outdoor cushions use Sunbrella® performance fabrics, which carry a 5-year warranty against loss of colour or strength from normal exposure conditions, including sunlight, mildew and atmospheric chemicals. Other cushions in our range use polypropylene and other materials selected for outdoor use.

3. Will outdoor cushions fade in the New Zealand sun?

All fabrics will last better when they're protected from unnecessary exposure to the elements, but choosing a fabric designed for outdoor use makes a substantial difference.

Sunbrella® fabrics are particularly well suited to sunny outdoor areas because of their resistance to fading and degradation from sunlight. Many of our outdoor cushions are made using Sunbrella fabrics and carry the applicable 5-year limited warranty.

Even with outdoor fabrics, we recommend storing cushions out of the elements when they're not being used. They'll look better and last longer.

4. Can I leave my outdoor cushions outside?

Our outdoor cushion covers are made from fabrics suitable for outdoor use, but we still recommend storing your cushions out of the elements when they're not needed.

New Zealand's combination of strong UV, wind and wet weather is hard on anything permanently left outside. Looking after your cushions and storing them when you're not using your outdoor area will help extend their life.

If you plan to leave your cushions outside for longer periods, we recommend choosing our PET cushion inners rather than feather inners.

5. What cushion inners are best for outdoor cushions?

We recommend our recycled PET cushion inners for outdoor cushions, particularly if the cushions are likely to be left outside.

When you buy an inner with one of our cushion covers, you'll also receive 20% off the cushion inner.

6. How do I choose outdoor cushions for my furniture?

Start with your outdoor furniture and surroundings rather than trying to make every cushion match. You might pick up a colour from your garden, outdoor rug or furniture, then combine different patterns, textures and cushion sizes around it.

One statement cushion can be a good starting point. Build around it with complementary colours, smaller-scale patterns or more understated designs.

7. Can you help me choose cushions for my outdoor area?

Yes. Our $20 Couch Makeover serviceisn't just for indoor sofas — we can create a personalised cushion scheme for your outdoor living area too.

You'll complete a short survey about your style and upload photos of your outdoor furniture and space. Our team will then put together two different cushion looks tailored to your area. You can give us feedback and we'll make revisions based on what you like.
