The Porch Swing Company, the go-to brand in porch swings, swing beds, and patio furniture and accessories, is proud to announce its first-ever designer collaboration, uniting storied heritage brand Old Hickory with designer Max Humphrey to bring a fresh and dynamic vision to outdoor living.
“We’ve always believed outdoor living should feel personal because it’s the heart of everything we make,” said Sean Fisher, CEO of The Porch Swing Company. “Bringing Old Hickory’s craftsmanship together with Max Humphrey’s vision takes that belief somewhere new. This collaboration isn’t just a simple swing; it’s an expression of rustic American design elevated for premier spaces.”
The new Lodge Swing blends timeless craftsmanship with relaxed outdoor living, bringing comfort and character to porches, patios, and lakeside or mountain retreats. With a curated selection of premium Sunbrella® outdoor fabrics from the Max Humphrey collection, it can be tailored to complement any setting—from classic Americana to modern mountain living. Handcrafted in Indiana by the team at Old Hickory, a heritage brand manufacturing furniture since 1899, The Lodge Swing is crafted for lasting beauty and durability. With two classic finishes in Espresso and Green, slatted wood seating, and herringbone Duracane detailing and ruched chain covers, it is designed with thoughtful, rustic character.
The cushion is upholstered in a custom fit in the fabric color and pattern of choice, adding comfort while standing up beautifully to the elements. Heavy-duty hanging chains with galvanized and zinc-plated hardware provide lasting strength and superior resistance to rust and corrosion. Each swing includes black chains.
“Working on this product collaboration together opened our eyes to what’s possible when craftsmanship meets a shared vision,” said Beau Parsons, CEO at Old Hickory. “We took nostalgia as our starting point and pushed every detail to the edge of design.”
The Porch Swing Company is excited about this unique and exclusive collaboration: a piece designed not just for a porch, but for a way of living. For long conversations, afternoon naps, and quiet moments outdoors. To celebrate the launch of this new product collection, interested parties can view the product at High Point Market this fall – from October 17-21 – at IHFC: IH409, Commerce, Floor 1, Interhall. A special ‘Meet Max’ event will be held on Sunday, October 18, from 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM, where the designer will be on-site to answer any questions.
The Lodge Swing will be available for the consumer marketplace and the trade landscape on Sept. 29. Go to www.theporchswingcompany.com to stay updated on this new collection.
