sling fabric
A sagging, faded seat doesn't mean your patio chair is finished. Sling fabric is the tough, open-weave material stretched across outdoor chair and chaise frames, and replacing it is one of the easiest ways to make tired furniture feel new again.
What Makes Sling Fabric Different
Most outdoor sling mesh is woven from PVC-coated polyester yarns. The coating helps the fabric resist moisture and mildew, while the open weave lets rain drain through and air circulate, so seats dry quickly and stay comfortable in the sun.
What to Look For
- UV resistance to help limit fading and brittleness outdoors
- A firm, low-stretch weave that holds its shape under weight
- Easy cleaning with mild soap and water
- Colors and textures that match your frames and outdoor decor
Popular Uses
Replacement chair sling material is ideal for dining chairs, chaise lounges, director's chairs and pool loungers. Vinyl mesh fabric also works well for boat seating, tote bags, privacy panels and other DIY outdoor projects that need strength and breathability.
Measure your old slings carefully, note the width you need, and pick a color you'll love all season. Browse our selection of patio sling fabric below to find the right fit for your next project.
