Frequently Asked Questions

➕ What is a Sobakawa pillow?

A traditional Japanese pillow filled with buckwheat hulls. It provides firm, moldable support that improves posture, reduces pressure, and keeps you cool throughout the night.

➕ How is it different from other pillows?

Foam pillows retain heat and flatten. Sobakawa pillows hold shape, promote airflow, and offer customized support that adapts to your head and neck without sinking in.

➕ Will it feel too firm?

It may feel firm at first—but give it a few nights. The structure helps improve alignment, and most users report noticeable relief from neck tension and stiffness.

➕ Can I adjust it?

Yes. Use the zipper to remove or add hulls until it feels right. The more you personalize it, the better it supports your unique sleep posture.

➕ How do I wash it?

Empty the hulls into a dry container. Wash the cotton shell on a gentle cold cycle and let it air dry. Do not wash the hulls—just air them out every few months to keep them fresh.
