"I'm always on the hunt for the perfect plaid shirt, antique quilt or floral bandana, and this collection pairs those classic design motifs with some of my favorite memories," said Humphrey. "From a quintessential gingham to bow ties, dots and stripes, the nostalgic patterns in this collection reflect my New England upbringing, but I also wanted to make sure they were versatile and functional. The Sunbrella design team helped translate my ideas into a beautiful collection that is highly usable in a modern home."

Inspired by Humphrey's love for vintage items, this collection delivers a fresh, modern perspective on cherished American mainstays. Small-scale patterns pair with classic gingham, elevated florals and treasured vintage styles for a curated offering featuring a rich array of colors and textures.

Available in 69 fabrics across 10 unique patterns, the Max Humphrey x Pindler x Sunbrella collection's standout patterns include:

Floral Stripe: This contemporary take on a classic floral motif is inspired by vintage western menswear. With a textural boucle ground, this fabric features a remarkably soft hand combining florals and geometric details to create a fresh interpretation of a classic stripe.
Bandana: Inspired by a vintage collection of its namesake, Bandana features a distilled floral motif over a saturated ground weave. Perfect for bigger pieces and large-scale applications, Bandana features the type of floral patterns you see in the corner of a well-curated vintage boutique, with bold colorways and delicate details that give the design an antique feel. Bandana is the ideal choice for layering florals without overwhelming a space.
Quilt: Quilt is a modern twist on a traditional quilt pattern in a matelassé construction for an exceedingly soft feel. This large-scale pattern features true versatility with an instantly recognizable style that can lean very vintage or very modern depending on the room and application. Colorways include traditional blues and reds next to on-trend shades of pink and gold.

Additional patterns in the collection include Crosshatch, Gingham, Bowtie, Vintage Stripe, Trax, Gridlock and Lineup.

"This collection is the result of our long-standing partnership with Max, giving us a deep foundation for translating Max's vision into patterns that look familiar yet modern, all without feeling too precious," said Esther Chang, design and style manager for Sunbrella. "We wanted to create designs that have an authenticity to them through truly versatile patterns that you can live with and are so excited to unveil a collection that marries Max's unique design voice with the comfort and performance of Sunbrella fabrics."

The collection is exclusively available to the design trade through Pindler. To learn more about the collection, visit Pindler.com.
