Sunbrella, to me, has historically been a bit predictable in its fabric patterns for outdoor furniture and marine use.  While they were one of the first to make tough fabrics for the outdoors, other companies have moved into the market and established themselves as more design forward choices.  I am however encouraged by recent moves from Sunbrella.  Last summer they held fashion shows where models wore clothes fashioned from sunbrella fabrics and they have launched a blog and new website.   I found these Chuck Taylors on the blog  – made of sunbrella fabrics.  I kinda want a pair.
