Hullo’s Buckwheat pillow provides an excellent option for side sleepers who tend to overheat at night, keeping you cool through the night. Lightweight yet breathable, its natural materials keep the temperature down as you rest peacefully on your side of the bed.
Specialized pillows designed for side sleeping may help support your head, neck and shoulders to alleviate pain in those suffering from neck conditions. While their effectiveness remains debatable, it might be worth giving one of these specialty pillows a try if your neck hurts.
Saatva Pillow
The Saatva Pillow is a pillow-within-a-pillow that provides an ideal combination of comfort and support. The outer layer features soft down alternative material that wraps your head in warmth; while its inner core contains supportive shredded latex to prevent flattening out after multiple nights’ use. Furthermore, this combination of materials also makes this product suitable for people suffering from allergies.
The outer layer of this pillow is composed of soft organic cotton fabric that’s silky to touch, keeping you cool and dry during sleep. Featuring demure brown piping around its edges and machine washing capability (though you’ll want to ensure the inner core doesn’t become wet over time), this machine-washable option should last up to three years of regular use before needing replacing (it is recommended every three years).
This pillow should suit side sleepers and back sleepers who enjoy medium-firm support, and those needing lots of height to maintain neutral spinal alignment. Unfortunately, however, stomach sleepers tend to prefer thinner pillows.
This pillow is an ideal option for anyone experiencing neck pain, as its inner core of shredded latex helps distribute pressure evenly throughout. In addition, its supportive gel-infused memory foam core promotes spinal alignment while relieving pressure from shoulders.
The Saatva Pillow features naturally cooling shredded latex, while its cover is made from breathable organic cotton fabric that will keep you cool while you sleep. Featuring brown piping around its edges for an elegant hotel-esque aesthetic. Furthermore, there are no harmful chemicals present when arriving in your home and no low odor upon opening! To further guarantee satisfaction and peace of mind with its purchase comes its 45-night trial and 1-year limited warranty!
T&N Pillow
Tuft & Needle offers another high-quality, comfortable pillow crafted from their signature Adaptive foam that provides both soft and supportive properties – ideal for hot sleepers! Additionally, its cooling properties make this an excellent solution.
Foam used in this pillow is single cut instead of being shredded or molded, helping maintain its shape while providing a more responsive experience than many other memory foam pillows. Furthermore, its compact size means it fits easily into most luggage cases.
Though this pillow claims to be suitable for all sleeping positions, its main target audience is side sleepers. With an approximate loft of 5 inches – which should suit most average-sized individuals – but for larger body types you may require additional lofting for proper head alignment with spine alignment.
As with other Tuft & Needle products, the T&N Pillow is extremely affordable. Additionally, it comes with a 100-night risk-free trial period and free shipping both ways; if it isn’t what you were hoping for you can return it and receive a full refund; additionally it comes with a rare 3-year limited warranty from Tuft & Needle!
This pillow feels more like latex than traditional memory foam, making it suitable for some sleepers who tend to overheat during the night. Plus, its graphite and cooling gel beads help regulate temperature throughout the night!
The T&N Pillow is an ideal solution for most side sleepers. Featuring the ideal blend of softness and loft, it responds quickly when pressure changes positions – as well as being suitable for back and stomach sleepers who may require thinner options.
Eli & Elm Cotton Side Sleeper
This organic cotton pillow features a U-shaped design to encourage side sleeping, relieving neck pain and supporting spinal alignment. Adjustable loft ranges between 2″-8″. Composed of shredded Talalay latex at its core with an outer layer containing down alternative, its unique construction ensures long-term use with no signs of wear over time.

Apart from its affordability, this pillow boasts other features that make it an excellent option for people experiencing side sleep issues. The soft filling is hypoallergenic and won’t create noise as you move during the night; additionally, its design protects it against dust mites and mold allergens.
The pillow features a responsive feel, which means it springs back into place when pressed upon. Plus, its minimal off-gassing makes it an excellent choice for anyone wanting to try their new pillow out right away! There are multiple sizes available as well; even one designed specifically for children and babies!
Heavier side sleepers may require some adjustment before experiencing optimal results from this pillow, though its loft and firmness won’t compare to other options on our list of side sleeping pillows for weight over 230 pounds. Lighter people might find the firmness too much; to adjust, remove some of its interior filling.
While the Purple pillow looks similar to its Eli & Elm counterpart, there are some key distinctions. First off, its thickness exceeds that of its U-shape predecessor and features solid latex foam core that gives a responsive yet long-term comfort experience. Furthermore, they use polyester fill for its exterior which makes this model lighter than most models on the market.
Coop Original Body Pillow
As opposed to a standard neck pillow, which cradles only the head, body pillows cover more surface area and are therefore an ideal choice for side sleepers. Body pillows provide extra cushioning, support and elevation to relieve pressure points such as hips, knees and other pressure areas – this Coop Original Body Pillow contains cross-cut shredded memory foam combined with microfiber fill, so it offers some shoulder support while remaining soft enough for spine support.
Our lab tests revealed this pillow to perform exceptionally well and earned rave reviews from testers, who raved about its comfortable feel and adjustable loft. Plus, with a generous five-year warranty on materials and craftsmanship, the Coop Original Body Pillow stands out as an incredible value compared to similar styles that cost three times as much – certainly one of our top choices for side sleepers!
This pillow stands out from other models by virtue of its adjustable loft. With a dual-case design that makes filling adjustments simple, this feature stands out as being key in terms of customizing this product to meet both your height and sleeping position needs. This versatility also makes this an excellent value purchase!
Another attractive feature is that both the outer cover and inner pillow are machine washable, helping keep it sanitary and fresh while decreasing chances of accidental spills ruining it – an especially essential consideration when purchasing bed accessories like pillows.
This pillow may become somewhat heavy if filled entirely. Also, its fill may shrink over time when washed too frequently, so for maximum effectiveness it should only be washed once or twice annually.
To upgrade the comfort of your pillows even further, take a look at the Coop Eden Pillow. Similar in size but filled with memory foam enhanced with cooling gel for extra support and luxuriousness.
