The picture I linked is of a buckwheat pillow. Had no idea they were a thing before today.

What about silk or bamboo pillow cases?

I’ve only ever really used cotton pillow cases and cotton stuffed pillows. I recently upgraded to a foam pillow that I’m enjoying.

No, the pillow says Aloa Vera Microfiber.

Edit: Ah fuck. I see that the filling is Polyester. It had a big writing on it with “Aloa Vera Microfiber Pillow”… but thats only whats covering the Polyester…

I guess I like it simple and flat?

You’ll be even more disappointed when you find out that “Aloe Vera Microfiber” is indeed coated polyester, with a few percent of Aloe Vera extract:

Honestl, I’m equally disappointed - I was keen to learn about a previously unknown fiber.
