I was expecting all denim, the backing is a dark navy blue material, front is denim but overall the pillow is as shown, very well made with good materials. I saw one in a store at three times this price so I'm still happy with it. I washed it in cold water as soon as I got it and hung to dry, it dried fast over my shower rod, no wrinkles or shrinking. Pillow has an envelope closing I believe it's called, no buttons or zippers. I'm using it in my sons room to dress up his navy, red and white bedding.
