Since 1988, Outdoor Living Your Way has been making shade (and waves) in the casual living industry. From our 68,000-square-foot cut-and-sew facility in North Carolina’s textile belt, we craft custom umbrellas, cushions, and pillows with precision, care, and a whole lot of pride.
As a second-generation, family-owned business, quality isn’t just a promise—it’s woven into every stitch.
Our mission is simple:
Deliver top-quality products with standout service—at the best possible value.
We take pride in everything we do, from our exceptional customer care to the handcrafted umbrellas, cushions, and pillows we produce right here in the USA. Every item that leaves our shop is made with precision, care, and premium materials—including 100% solution-dyed acrylic fabrics from trusted brands like Sattler and Sunbrella. These fabrics cost more than polyesters or olefins, but for good reason: they’re the most durable and fade-resistant textiles available, built to withstand even the harshest outdoor environments.
If we’re going to stand behind our products (and we do), then every component has to be best-in-class—starting with the fabric.
We’re also proud to be certified as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), reflecting our commitment to strong leadership, responsible business practices, and long-term partnerships.
