Medium 625 Fill Power White Down Sleeping Pillow Queen Size - 100% Cotton Shell, Made in Canada

This pillow is made mostly of feather, which provides excellent support as compared to down. The outer shell of this pillow is soft 500 thread count cotton. This pillow features a unique braided cord piping. Medium has a bit more fluff than the Soft version, but it still sinks down significantly with the weight of the head. If you need a tad more support, try the Firm version of this pillow. This pillow is filled with care in Canada.

The single-chamber pillow is finished with a double needle stitch and braided cord piping. The fabric is 500 thread count, down-proof, 100% cotton, which is soft and smooth. The fill is 625+ loft duck down. Down is the soft undercoating of geese and ducks, consisting of clusters of light, fluffy filaments growing from a central quill point.

This is a duck down pillow. While there is no difference in the overall look and feel of the fill (unless viewed under a microscope), there are four main, but subtle differences between goose down and duck down. Loft: Goose down tends to be available in higher lofts than duck down, though both can be found in low and high lofts. Odour: Lower loft duck down has a higher likelihood of developing an odour in humid environments than goose down or higher loft duck down, though odour is quite rare, especially with hypoallergenic down which has been thoroughly cleaned. Longevity: Duck down naturally contains more oils than goose down, which can help prevent the material from becoming dry and brittle. Cost: Goose down is scarcer and more prized, and therefore, more expensive than duck down.

For the most comfortable sleep, you want to try to achieve even neck alignment. Side sleepers tend to need the most support and can benefit from firmer-style pillows, like firm support feather or Down Perfect pillows. Front sleepers tend to need the least support and usually prefer softer, flatter-style pillows, like soft or medium support down pillows. Back sleepers and combination sleepers need moderate support and usually benefit from microfiber pillows, fuller down pillows or flatter feather pillows.
