Cooling Pillows

Shop cooling pillows for hot sleepers and night sweats, with heat-absorbing covers built to last the whole night.

Cooling Pillows Designed for Hot Nights

A cooling pillow only works if it stays cool. Most start cold and warm up within minutes, because the cover or the fill lets body heat seep back in. Ours are built to release heat as it builds, with materials that keep the surface temperature steady from lights-out to morning.

The Cloud Cooling Pillow leads with an adjustable shredded memory foam fill and a high-performance cooling cover that pulls heat away from the body. The Cloud Side Sleeper Pillow uses the same cooling cover with a shoulder bay carved in for side-sleep alignment. The Cloud Pillow offers a softer surface, with a TENCEL™ lyocell shell that breathes through warm nights without using foam.

Every pillow in the collection uses 100% recycled fill, whether foam or fiber. Pair yours with a Breeze Sheet Set to stay cool from pillow to mattress.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cooling Pillows

Cooling pillows stay cool through two mechanisms: cover materials that conduct heat away from the body, and fills that don't trap it. The Cloud Cooling Pillow uses a high-molecular-weight polyethylene cover that conducts heat off the skin on contact, paired with a recycled polyurethane shredded memory foam engineered with Foam Cell technology to absorb and dissipate built-up heat.

Yes. Night sweats and hot flashes spike body temperature suddenly, leaving sleepers overheated and damp. A cooling pillow pulls heat away from the head and neck, where high blood flow concentrates body warmth, making it easier to fall back asleep. The Cloud Cooling Pillow is a strong pick here, with a cover that maintains a cooler surface temperature through the night and a shredded memory foam that absorbs heat without trapping it.

Side sleeping keeps the cheek pressed against the same spot for hours, building heat faster than back or stomach sleeping. Like the Cloud Cooling Pillow, the Cloud Side Sleeper Pillow uses a high-molecular-weight polyethylene cover that pulls heat off the cheek, with a carved-in shoulder bay that keeps the head, neck, and shoulder in alignment.

Gel pillows start cold but warm up against the body within an hour. Solid memory foam pillows hold shape but trap heat against the head. The Cloud Cooling Pillow takes a different approach: a high-molecular-weight polyethylene cover that channels heat off the body on contact, paired with shredded memory foam engineered with Foam Cell technology to dissipate built-up warmth. The shredded structure leaves space for airflow that solid foam doesn't, and the fill is adjustable via an interior zipper.

The Cloud Cooling Pillow is engineered to maintain a cooler surface temperature through the night. The Cloud Side Sleeper Pillow uses the same polyethylene cooling cover, holding temperature through hours of side-sleep contact. The Cloud Pillow cools through moisture management; its TENCEL™ lyocell shell draws moisture off the body and stays dry overnight.

Yes. Every Buffy pillow ordered online comes with a 7-night At Home Trial, so there is no charge at checkout until after your trial. Orders also include free shipping and 50-night free returns.
