How to Buy New Webbing for a Lawn Chair

Weather can damage webbing on lawn chairs. Plastic fibers will become frayed and can irritate bare skin. Fibers that become weak or damaged will break under the weight of a person. This could result in an embarrassing situation or an injury. Even though the webbing is damaged on a lawn chair, the structure of the chair may still be sturdy. You can purchase lawn chair webbing in a variety of colors to create a whole new look for an old chair.
