THE BEST TRAVEL NECK PILLOW 
IS NOT MADE WITH POLYURETHANE

The ubiquitous travel neck pillow, sold at every airport and train station around the world. Almost every one is made with fossil-fuel-based polyurethane foam. Whatever is in it, you're breathing for the length of your journey — and in a sealed airplane cabin or car, that matters. Every pillow on every best-of list is memory foam, microbeads, or inflatable synthetic. Ours is entirely different — and not competing on the same terms. Certified organic by GOTS from fill to finished product, it's made with GOLS-certified organic Dunlop latex: buoyant, resilient, and supportive, without chemically intensive foam. An organic cotton outer shell. A soft organic cotton jersey interior. A latex core that holds its shape flight after flight — and bounces back after being packed away. Adjustable toggle clasp, removable washable cover, and an included canvas storage bag with a matching clasp. It's the antithesis of the disposable neck pillow you grabbed at the gate — delightfully so.

ORGANIC COTTON COVER
& CARRYING BAG

The outer shell is made from our organic cotton — the same material we use on our mattresses — soft enough to rest against your skin for hours on a long flight. The interior is a gentle organic cotton jersey that moves with you. Both are undyed, natural cream. A barrel toggle clasp on a cord opens and closes at the front — put it on, dial in the fit, and release it the moment you land. Loop the cord around a bag strap between your legs, and the clasp keeps it secure. The included organic cotton canvas bag closes the same way.

SOFT, SUPPORTIVE
ORGANIC LATEX

The fill inside this pillow is the same GOLS-certified organic Dunlop latex we've used in our mattresses from the beginning — responsive, naturally supportive, and free from synthetic foam, chemical off-gassing, and petroleum-based materials. Dunlop latex doesn't bottom out or flatten over time. Its natural resilience holds your head where you put it, resisting the forward drop and side tilt that plague most travel pillows. Pack it away, pull it out ten flights later — it bounces back the same way it went in.

EASY TO CLEAN

Unzip the organic cotton outer shell and turn it inside out. Toss it in the wash, hang it to dry. Zip it back on. That's it. The latex core doesn't need washing — it's naturally resistant to dust mites, mold, and allergens. The removable cover is the only thing that ever needs attention, and it's designed to make that as easy as possible. Clean pillow. Next trip.

Organic Cotton

Our travel neck pillow features two organic cotton covers and one bag. The outer shell is made from organic cotton in a soft, natural cream — undyed, and blended with 3% elastane for a gentle stretch that moves with you. Fully compliant with GOTS standards and responsibly sourced from India, it removes via a discreet zipper and is machine washable — hang to dry. Beneath it, the latex core is encased in a fixed organic cotton jersey knit lining that holds the latex in place and adds a second layer of natural softness between the fill and the outer shell. The included carrying bag is made of organic cotton and closes with a matching barrel toggle clasp. No synthetic fabrics. (GOTS License: CU863637)

GOLS-Certified Organic Latex

Where most travel pillows use polyurethane foam, we use GOLS-certified organic Dunlop latex — made with ≥95% certified organic latex, the highest standard. Our Dunlop latex is sourced from co-owned farmer societies and processing facilities in India and Guatemala, as well as from sources in Asia, and is processed in GOLS-certified organic facilities operating under the USDA's National Organic Program. It is also FSC® certified, verifying responsible forestry practices at the source.

The latex core offers a balanced medium firmness and measures approximately 11" × 11" × 3.5", shaped to cradle and support the neck in an upright seated position. (GOLS License: CU863637 | FSC®: FSC-C156318)

Warranty & Return Policy

The Avocado Molded Latex Pillow is covered by a 100-night trial, subject to our Sleep Trial Policy Terms, and a 1-Year Warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

The pillow is filled with GOLS-certified organic Dunlop latex — the same material used in our mattresses. The outer shell is organic cotton jersey (with 3% elastane for stretch), and the inner liner directly encasing the latex is organic cotton jersey knit. The included carrying bag is organic cotton canvas. No synthetic foam, no polyurethane, no chemical treatments. Learn more about our organic materials →
The finished pillow holds three independent certifications: GOTS (entire finished product), MADE SAFE® (screening against known and suspected human health hazards), and GREENGUARD Gold (emissions). The latex core is GOLS certified organic at the material level. Every certification applies to the complete finished pillow — not just individual materials. GOTS license: CU863637.
Unzip and remove the outer organic cotton shell. Machine wash inside out in cold water, hang to dry. Do not wash the latex core or inner jersey liner. The inner liner is fixed and does not require washing. Be sure the outer cover is completely dry before zipping it back on.
A continuous cord runs through the front of the pillow with a barrel toggle. Slide the toggle to cinch or loosen the fit around your neck. There is no separate clasp — the cord is one continuous loop, which also lets you loop it around a bag strap and cinch it tight for hands-free carrying between gates.
The pillow includes an organic cotton canvas storage bag that closes with a matching barrel toggle — the same closure as the pillow itself. It keeps the pillow protected in a carry-on, backpack, or luggage between trips.
It's designed for any upright seated travel — flights, road trips, train rides, bus journeys, and long car trips. It also works well for office use or anywhere extended neck support is needed while seated. The U-shape and adjustable toggle fit most neck sizes.

Note: individuals with a diagnosed latex allergy should consult a physician before use.
