Designed to elevate your sleep naturally, the PineTales Premium Buckwheat Pillow offers adaptive support for your neck and spine while keeping you cool and comfortable all night. Thanks to its adjustable design and breathable structure, this pillow easily adapts to your unique sleep position. Built with premium materials and exceptional craftsmanship, it’s more than just a pillow—it’s a wellness upgrade you’ll feel from the very first night.

• Extra Thick, Luxurious Bamboo Cover

  Indulge in next-level comfort with our ultra-soft Bamboo Rayon cover. It’s naturally antibacterial and moisture-wicking—perfect for hot sleepers. Plus, it’s removable and machine-washable for easy upkeep, so your sleep stays fresh night after night.

• Premium, Durable Cotton Core

  The inner cotton pillowcase securely holds the hulls while maximizing airflow. Its tightly woven fibers help minimize dust buildup—making it a smart, low-maintenance choice for long-term use.

• Premium Japanese YKK Zippers

  Fitted with Japanese-engineered YKK zippers—renowned for strength and smoothness—our pillow eliminates zipper snags for good. Built to last, just like the rest of the pillow.

• Cleanest A+ Grade Buckwheat Hulls

  Only the cleanest hulls make the cut, thanks to our proprietary 4-step cleaning process. Their interlocking shape creates airflow channels for enhanced breathability—making this pillow naturally cooler than memory foam.

• Choose Your Fill Option

  Tailor your experience with three custom-fill types, each designed to match a different sleep style:

  • 100% Buckwheat Hulls: Classic firmness and full adjustability for deep, stable support.
  • Buckwheat & French Lavender: Infused with calming lavender to ease tension and promote relaxation.
  • 50/50 Buckwheat & Memory Foam: A soft-meets-firm blend for balanced comfort with a gentle cushion.

• Fully Adjustable Loft

  With a smart dual-zipper system, you can quickly adjust the height and firmness to fit your body’s alignment needs. Whether you're a side, back, or combo sleeper—this pillow adapts to you.

• Balanced Feel: Firm Yet Comfortable

  The thick bamboo cover softens the overall feel by about 20%, creating a sweet spot between structured support and gentle pressure relief. It’s firm where it counts, and soft where you want it.

• Quiet by Design

  We reduced the rustling sound by 50% with our innovative dual-case construction. The result? A peaceful sleep experience—no more pillow noise waking you up in the middle of the night.

• No Setup Needed

  Take it out of the box and start sleeping better right away. No complicated prep or accessories required. Use it with or without a standard pillowcase—it’s ready either way.

• Pressure Relief Where You Need It

  The plush bamboo outer cover adds a cushiony layer that helps ease pressure on your ears, jaw, and neck. Especially helpful for side and back sleepers seeking added comfort without compromising on support.

• Long-Lasting Quality

  Constructed with a tough double-layer pillowcase, this pillow holds up better than foam or feather alternatives—making it a smarter long-term investment in your health and sleep.

• Chiropractor Recommended

  Endorsed by healthcare professionals for its ability to support proper spinal alignment. Pair it with our Knee Pillow to further enhance your posture and sleep comfort.

• Available Sizes & Dimensions

  We offer two thoughtfully sized options to match how you sleep and where you sleep:

  • Japanese Plus (14" x 20") – Our top-selling size. It’s compact, focused, and perfect if you love a grounded, no-frills sleep setup. Ideal for smaller beds, minimalist spaces, or travel.
  • Standard (20" x 26") – A familiar size with a roomier feel. Great for active sleepers who shift positions or just want a little more surface to settle into.

• Care Instructions

  This pillow is built to last—and keeping it clean is easier than you'd think:

  • 1. Unzip both covers and pour the buckwheat hulls into a container or sturdy bag. (No need to be exact—just get most of them out.)
  • 2. Wash the outer bamboo cover on a gentle, cold cycle. Skip the dryer—air drying helps it keep its shape and softness.
  • 3. Let everything dry completely before refilling. You can even give the hulls a little sunbath on the porch if they need a refresh.

  No fluffing, no complicated routines. Just simple upkeep for a pillow that works as hard as you do at getting a good night’s rest.

A buckwheat hull pillow (also known as a Sobakawa or Japanese Pillow) is filled with the outer shells of buckwheat seeds, providing naturally firm and breathable support that molds to your head and neck.

➕ Why is bamboo fabric used for this pillow?

Bamboo fabric offers a naturally breathable, hypoallergenic, and skin-friendly experience—making it an ideal choice for pillowcases and sleep accessories. It’s gentle on sensitive skin, regulates temperature, and wicks away moisture throughout the night. Plus, it’s sustainably produced with minimal environmental impact.

➕ Are these pillows comfortable to sleep on?

Absolutely. While they feel different from foam at first, most people say they quickly grow to love the supportive, cradling feel—and many report improved sleep quality within days.

➕ How do you adjust or use the pillow?

Just unzip the pillow and add or remove hulls until you reach your preferred height and firmness. You can store the extra hulls for future adjustments as your needs change.

➕ How do you clean it?

Remove the hulls, wash the pillowcases, and air out the hulls every few months. Never wash the hulls directly—they're organic and designed to stay dry.
