Description
Protection Designed for Your Furniture's Natural Angle
Slanted back furniture delivers superior comfort through its reclined design, but standard covers fight against this angle. Rectangular covers create awkward bunching at the back where excess fabric piles up, or they pull tight across the slope, leaving gaps at the bottom.
The mismatch between a square cover and angled furniture means poor protection and constant frustration. Custom slanted back covers solve this by engineering the exact angle into the cover pattern. The result is a cover that follows your furniture's natural slope from the tall back down to the lower front, creating seamless protection without fighting the furniture's shape.
Why Choose ZIPCovers Slanted Back Covers?
Industry-Exclusive 18 oz Material: Our heavy-duty PVC-coated polyester outweighs and outlasts every competitor fabric. At 18 ounces per square yard, this material handles extreme weather, resists punctures and tears, and maintains waterproof integrity through years of outdoor exposure. Most covers use 12-14 oz materials that degrade quickly—ours are built to last a decade.
Angle-Engineered Pattern Design: We cut and sew each cover to your four specific measurements, creating a pattern that naturally accommodates the height difference between your furniture's back and front. This precision means the cover drops smoothly over the angled profile without bunching at the top or pulling up at the bottom. The slanted design distributes fabric exactly where it's needed.
Sloped Surface Ventilation:Slanted furniture faces unique moisture challenges—condensation runs down the angled back and can pool at the seat level. Our ventilation placement accounts for this slope, positioning openings to allow moisture escape while preventing rain entry along the angled surface.
Practical Usability Features:Drawstrings give you control over fit tightness around the base perimeter—critical for securing covers on furniture where the angle creates natural lift points. Handles positioned for the angled form let you remove the cover efficiently without struggling with the height differential between front and back.
Decade-Long Warranty Backing: Our 10-year warranty isn't just marketing—it reflects the actual expected lifespan of these covers. The 18 oz material and angle-specific construction deliver protection that lasts, not disposable covers you replace every year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Rectangular covers are designed for furniture with uniform height on all sides. When placed on slanted furniture, they either bunch excessively at the tall back (if sized for the front height) or leave the front exposed (if sized for the back height). This mismatch creates water-pooling pockets in the bunched fabric and gaps where rain enters at exposed areas. Slanted back covers are engineered with the angle built into the pattern, so fabric distributes correctly across the height differential. You get proper coverage without excess material or exposed sections.
Start with height: measure from the ground to the highest point of the back. Then measure depth: from the back to the front at the base. Measure width: side to side at the widest point. Finally, measure front height: from the ground to the top of the front edge or seat area. These four measurements capture both the overall dimensions and the critical angle difference. If your furniture has arms that extend higher than the seat, note this and we'll ensure the cover accommodates them.
Slanted back covers are designed for furniture in a specific recline position. If your furniture has multiple recline settings, measure it in the position you'll most commonly store it, as that's where the cover will fit best. For furniture you frequently adjust, consider the position that provides the most coverage or contact us about solutions for adjustable furniture.
Yes. Many slanted back chairs feature wide, flat arms that extend beyond the seat width. When you provide width measurements and note that your furniture has extended arms, we incorporate this into the cover design. The cover will drop over the arms and protect them along with the rest of the chair. Be sure to measure width at the widest point, which is typically across the arms rather than the seat.
Yes. The combination of angle-matched fit, adjustable drawstrings, and heavy 18 oz fabric weight keeps these covers in place during storms. Because the cover follows your furniture's natural slope rather than fighting it, there's less stress on the fabric and fewer lift points where wind can get underneath. Drawstrings tightened around the base create tension that secures the entire cover. The substantial fabric weight prevents the flapping that occurs with lightweight covers, even on the taller back section, where wind pressure is greatest.
Rinse them with a standard garden hose whenever dirt accumulates. The PVC coating sheds dirt easily—you don't need pressure washers or harsh chemicals. For stubborn spots, use mild soap and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly. Always let covers air dry completely before folding and storing them. Never machine wash, as agitation and detergents can damage the waterproof coating. Regular hosing every few weeks prevents dirt buildup that can degrade fabric over time, keeping your covers looking and performing like new.
Went through three different brands before finding these Custom Covers. No complaints whatsoever about the quality or fit. Really impressed with how ZIPCovers handles complex shapes. Just really solid products that work as advertised.

This is my second purchase. Fit is perfect and I like the quality. Each time there were shipping delays so patience is required. My first order had a small tear in the packaging, possibly customs inspection, so the cushion was stained.
