From plush textures to rugged outdoor options, our fabrics cater to a wide range of lifestyles and preferences. Whether you’re lounging indoors or relaxing outside, Fatboy’s fabric collection delivers superior quality and timeless appeal.

Nylon

At Fatboy, we have been using nylon for our Original bean bag for many years. Nylon is a strong synthetic material. It is wear resistant, and a special treatment makes it water and stain resistant. Nylon is easy to clean with soap and water. However, prolonged exposure to sunlight may cause some color fading.

Cotton and Stonewashed

For a natural, soft aesthetic, stonewashed fabric delivers timeless charm. Made from durable cotton, it undergoes a special washing process for a lived-in texture and faded look. Perfect for indoor use, it’s biodegradable, wear-resistant, and treated for easy maintenance.

Olefin

Engineered for outdoor living, olefin fabric combines durability with elegance. Its water-resistant, UV-resistant, and stain-resistant properties make it ideal for patios, poolsides, and gardens. Plus, its 35,000 Martindale rating ensures it withstands heavy use.

Velvet

Luxuriously soft and shiny, velvet fabric adds a touch of sophistication to any space. Made from recycled polyester, it’s sustainable, durable, and resistant to pilling. Its smooth texture and vibrant colors bring elegance to indoor settings.

Teddy

For a cozy and inviting feel, teddy fabric is unbeatable. This ultra-soft material mimics the texture of shearling and offers warmth and style for indoor use. Its durability and plush finish make it perfect for relaxing in comfort.

Corduroy

With its distinctive ribbed texture, corduroy fabric is both stylish and practical. Soft, durable, and available in rich tones, it’s designed for indoor comfort and adds a classic touch to your home.
