GOOSE DOWN PILLOW
TYPES OF GOOSE DOWN PILLOWS
It’s a safe bet that you’ve never heard a goose complaining about the cold! Geese are equipped with down, thick fluff that grows on their undersides. This keeps them warm and protected, even in the coldest water and during the coldest winters. Goose down is incredibly insulating, while still lightweight and breathable. That is why our goose down pillow is such a popular choice!
There is a wide variety of down pillows available, ranging from those made with duck down and feathers to those made from synthetic down alternatives. Of all the down pillows you can readily buy in the marketplace, though, goose down is the most luxurious. Goose down grows thicker and in bigger clusters than duck down, resulting in a longer lasting, higher-quality pillow. Unlike a duck down pillow, a goose down pillow does not have an unpleasant odor. In fact, a goose down pillow has virtually no smell at all!
There is some variety among goose down pillows. At the low end of the spectrum are the down and feather mixed pillows. While it is virtually impossible to completely remove feathers from down, the less feathers the better. Feathers are heavier and harder than down, leading to firmer pillows. Down is much more lightweight, creating a fluffier product. In addition, goose feathers are sharp and can poke through the cover to prick your skin. That’s why we engineered our Down Pillow with goose down!
There are several types of geese living in the world today. They can be found all around the world, from Canada to Egypt. Therefore, there are also different types of down products on the market. Different types of geese have different types of down and create different types of comforters. Siberian goose down is considered the best and has excellent thermal qualities. Eiderdown comes from Eider ducks of Iceland. In keeping with the extremely cold climate, Eiderdown is the warmest and most luxurious goose down that is available. The price for Eiderdown reflects that. Hungarian goose down is another popular, luxurious choice of goose down, which is the type of goose down we offer here at PureComfort!
GOOSE DOWN PILLOW FEATURES
For those with allergies, our hypoallergenic goose down pillow is a smart choice! It has an inner cover to keep the goose down secured and clean. The outer cover can be removed and washed, which helps prevent dust mites from getting into your pillow. More features for our goose down pillow include a 100% cotton outer cover that is removable and washable. This outer cover allows access to the inner pillow. The inner case has a zipper, allowing you to access the fill.
Moreover, the inner and outer cover of our Down Pillow is made with 100% natural organic cotton and is GOTS certified. The cotton we use is grown organically from non-genetically modified plants, and without synthetic agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers or pesticides. Organic cotton uses far less water, and since the crops aren’t treated with harmful chemicals, the cotton is safe for you and all wildlife eco-systems.
Adjustability is another feature that our pillows are equipped with. One size does NOT fit all when it comes to pillows! Our goose down pillow utilizes a fully adjustable loft made from goose down. Adding or removing the goose down to reach your preferred loft gives you the fluffiest, softest goose down pillow you will ever have the pleasure of owning.

HOW DO I KNOW IF A GOOSE DOWN PILLOW IS RIGHT FOR ME?
SOFTNESS
Down-filled pillows are known for their extremely comfortable level of softness. Have you ever heard of the phrase “it’s like sleeping on a cloud”? Well, that’s what sleeping on a down pillow feels like. Compared to memory foam pillows, the down pillow takes the win for fluffiness and softness. Not to mention that goose down pillows are fluffier and last longer than duck down pillows, which is why we only offer our down pillow filled with goose down and feathers. Memory foam pillows offer support that is more firm since they are designed to contour to your head.
SUPPORT
Down pillows offer the ideal support for stomach sleepers. The down pillow’s fluffy, soft feel allows your head to hang lower than a memory foam pillow does, which puts less tension on your spine and neck while you sleep. Memory foam pillows are offered in various shapes to encourage spinal alignment and relieve neck, shoulder, and back pain. The contoured shapes of memory foam pillows are designed specially to help with all types of sleeping issues, ranging from snoring to back pain. Since every person is unique, a pillow to match their sleep preferences is different from someone else’s, hence the reason why we offer completely customizable pillows.
ALLERGENS
Many people assume that down pillows are more prone to aggravate allergies than memory foam pillows or other types of pillows. However, this belief is an misconception. When goose down pillows are cleaned regularly, both down and memory foam are naturally allergen-resistant. That’s why at PureComfort, we strive to ensure our pillows are made to be hypo-allergenic and dust mite resistant. Overall, we care about your comfort, health, and the environment.
WARMTH
Down pillows and memory foam pillows are well known for holding heat inside, heating your head while you sleep. Memory foam pillows are generally made to hold in heat, however, our Cool-Tech shredded memory foam is specially designed to allow air to flow through the pillow to keep you cool at night. Our down-filled pillow also holds in heat by providing insulation without the added weight like memory foam. If warmth is a concern and you would like more airflow, consider trying our Organic Shredded Latex Pillow with a 100% cotton cover. The shredded foam used for our organic latex pillow was specially designed to have a feather down feeling and softness. Adding or removing the fill to reach your preferred loft gives you the best all-natural, organic latex pillow you’ll ever own.
DURABILITY
Down Pillows are a great investment because they last for years and don’t require much maintenance. Not to mention, they are covered under our PureComfort 5 year warranty. The only maintenance needed to keep your goose down pillow clean is an occasional wash and fluff. Memory foam pillows are also quite resilient, and they hold their shape longer than almost any other pillow on the market.
Our goose down pillow is the best feather pillow on the market. From features ranging from adjusting the fill to luxurious Hungarian goose down, our down pillow provides a fluffy yet firm loft. Don’t believe us? Try out our down pillow for 100 nights, risk free! Align your neck perfectly, sleep comfortably, and wake up refreshed every morning. You deserve it! Mark Scheifele Jersey
