Pillows

[GB]

I think we all have an idea of what sleeping bag, sleeping mat or tent we need or have but what about pillows? I have my Thermarest mat, my Luxe tent which pack up small and are relatively light but I'm missing a pillow. I tried a cheap inflatable one which packs up small but i found it uncomfortable, got a karrimor one from sports direct which is so so comfortable but a largish ack size, there must be something out there that is comfortable and small pack size? Ive tried rolling up clothes and kit but once it flattens down its useless.

I had the same question earlier this year and was pointed this way.

This is not cheap but it is simply perfect in every way. I have a bad neck so I must have a decent pillow and this is bar far the best I have ever seen or used.

When it comes to pillows skimping is not a good idea.

I use a cheap inflatable which I put underneath my thermarest. (thumbs)

Some vango sleeping bags have a velvet type material on the inside of their container bags, turn it out and stuff with clothes, nice comfy pillow (thumbs)

While away this year I tried using a sheepskin to sit on.
I found a whole one in the bottomof the airing cupboard so just plonked it on the bike. Very comfy to sit on.
But even more comfy rolled up as a pillow!
This became so important to me that i would stop and put it away if it looked like rain so I'd have a dry pillow

I have a Vango half moon pillow that is ridiculously comfy. I like a firm pillow when in bed but a soft one when camping, so the Vango one is ideal for that. Vango make really good gear, I think.
