Greetings Sac’rs -

The winter season is fast approaching. This means many things for Iowans. We have to dig out our winter gear for our car, prepare that emergency bag in case we slide off the road and can’t be found for hours, find the other half of our favorite set of gloves, figure out the fastest routes to work (based on when the road is plowed), and time to think about different Sac and Sactional covers.

The first exciting bit of news you may not have seen if you haven’t been to our store lately is that Lovesac is introducing top-grain leather into our fabric selections. We are currently offering one color, the amazing Cigar-Brown.

What is top-grain leather you ask? There are several ‘levels’ of Leather. The best is Top-Grain, which is the part of the cow’s hide that hair grows out of. Next is split-level, which is nearly as high quality, almost as supple. Then we have bonded leather. When most furniture stores advertise leather, this is the leather they are using. It is leather, but as its name indicates, its been pressed together from left-over pieces, or bonded together. Next is Pleather, which is not actually leather, it is plastic that has been worked to feel like leather. Finally is PVC, which is what cheap furniture makers use in place of leather in the places that they think the consumer won’t notice or touch often, like the whole back of the couch.

My boss, Shawny D. explains this a lot better than me! Check it out!

Now at Lovesac, if you don’t already know, we don’t cut corners. In fact, we usually over-do it on quality, but that’s why our customers love us and recommend us to their friends. Our new leather will be top-grain anywhere you will see and touch on a regular basis. There will be minimal amounts of split-level leather used, but absolutely no pleather or PVC.

We will be offering a SuperSac Set of a SuperSac and Squattoman with Top-Grain Leather covers for both. The price will be $2500 for this set. If you already own a SuperSac and Squattoman, we will sell the set for $1900.

We also still have the Black Leather CitySac package available for $549. This will include:

• CitySac insert and Black Leather cover
• Squattoman insert and Black Leather cover
• TubeSac
• SodaSac
• Udon Noodle Bowl

Besides our exciting news about Leather, we are excited to reveal our seasonal fabrics for the winter. Cow Phur and Lezur-Tan Tweed! Cow Phur is an amazingly soft material that actually looks and feels more like rabbit fur; but don’t worry, no rabbits were harmed to make this beautiful fabric! The Cow Phur will be available in a CitySac Package, a SuperSac Package, Sactional Side and Base covers, throw blankets, king blanket, throw pillows, slippers, ‘I Want Your Body’ Pillow covers, and available to custom order for any other size Sac.

The Cow Phur CitySac Package will sell for $549, a savings of approximately $350, or if you have a CitySac and Squattoman already and just want the cover set it will be $299. This package will include:

• CitySac Insert and Cow Phur cover
• Squattoman Insert and Cow Phur cover
• TubeSac
• SodaSac
• Kobe the 3-in-1 Cow (Stuffed Animal, Pillow, and Blanket)

There is also a new Weave fabric available in a package for the winter season. This is the Tobacco Weave PillowSac package. It will retail for $549, a savings of approximately $150, or if you have a PillowSac already and just want the cover set it will be $399. The package will include:

• PillowSac insert with Tobacco Weave cover
• 2 Tobacco Weave throw pillows
• A Rocker Frame to allow your PillowSac to rock out

The Lezur-Tan Tweed is the partner to our Bidness-Grey Tweed (say it out loud) that was released this summer. Lezur-Tan Tweed is a more solid tan than our Classic Camel Tweed. It is available on Sactionals as a pre-made item, or available to custom order.

To accessorize  your Sac or Sactional, we are also receiving a variety of 4 designer throw pillows and 5 seasonal throw pillows.

We will also have an Other Comfy Stuff exclusive fabric for the winter, our patterned Twill. This is, quite possibly, the most comfortable fabric we’ve ever felt for blanket material. Fortunately, Lovesac is offering a Love Throw blanket, ‘I Want Your Body’ Pillow Cover and slippers in this material.

While these items are not in currently, we would be happy to pre-sell them or direct you to our discounted older Other Comfy Stuff in Artichoke or Mink. See this previous post for information about the pricing on the older items

Lovesac will also be offering some other fun holiday items like ornaments, lights, stuffed animals, DIY Reindeer and Trees, Snowperson in a Can, and much more! These are limited edition items, unlikely to come back next season, so be sure to grab up the items you like quickly!

We of course have Sactionals and all of our accessories and Other Comfy Stuff for sale as well. Stop in and see a PDSE and get the lowdown!

Did you see a color or fabric that you want on the Sac or Sactional you already own? Talk to a PDSE and we can let you know the availability, order time, and cost. Remember, even now, as we approach the holiday season, it may be possible to get custom order covers.

Still don’t know what Sactionals are? Check out this short video:

A big concern that we hear all the time is to ask how our guests will get their LoveSac or Sactionals home. Never fear, we know that not everyone drives a U-Haul around for their furniture. Our Sactionals, being modular, can fit a few pieces in most 4-door vehicles. All of our Sacs will fit in the backseat of a 4-door vehicle, and most in a 2-door.
