For the way we travelest. '24Slowly, always.
Built for trains.
Volvos. Redeyes.
Most travel pillows are designed for nine-hour transatlantic flights. We designed ours for the chaotic, eight-hour, four-am trips Indians actually take.
Four things that make
this one different.
Twenty-seven prototypes. Eleven foam densities. One pillow that earned its place in our carry-on.
Memory foam that cradles, not crushes.
Two densities — a firm 55 kg/m³ core that holds your cervical spine, wrapped in a plush 40 kg/m³ outer for the parts that touch your skin.
A magnetic clasp that finds itself.
N42 neodymium · brass-coated · 4 lock positions · 4,000 cycles tested, even after a Mumbai monsoon.
Velvet you can actually wash.
Zip it off. Cold cycle. Line dry.
Packs to one-third. Clips to your bag.
A rip-stop nylon sleeve compresses it to 1.2L — a water bottle — and the carabiner hangs off your carry-on handle.
OEKO-TEX velvet that doesn't itch.
280 GSM, 4-way stretch, no pilling at 200 wash cycles. The same fabric inside premium loungewear, not the scratchy polyester everyone else uses.
Sewn by hand. QC-stamped in Bengaluru.
Foam from Coimbatore. Velvet from Surat. Magnets from Mumbai. Assembly in our workshop, every unit checked before it ships.
We made the pillow we wished existed.
The first prototype was three years ago. I had just gotten off a Delhi-Bangkok redeye, my neck was crooked, and the U-pillow I'd bought at duty-free had already lost its shape. I asked Aanya — my co-founder, an industrial designer — "why is there no good travel pillow made in India for the way we actually travel?"
So we made one. Twenty-seven prototypes. Eleven foam densities. One trip across the country to find a workshop in Bengaluru that would assemble it by hand, the way we wanted.
It launched this spring. We hope it comes with you somewhere good.
A small thank-you, along
the Konkan coast.
For every pillow we ship, we plant one tree through our partnership with SankalpTaru. It's not greenwashing — you'll get a paper tag in your box with the GPS coordinates of your tree, and a photo of it six months later.
How it stacks up
against the top five.
We bought every popular travel pillow on Amazon India — including the ones from Shark Tank — and lined them up.

Where it's been
this month.
2,148 small love letters.
"DEL → SFO, sixteen hours middle seat. I slept seven. I've never written a review before today."
"Mumbai–Goa every weekend on the Vande Bharat. The sleeve is the most thoughtful bit — I clip it on and forget it."
"Five-hour cab to Coorg. Hill roads, potholes, everything. My neck was perfect at the homestay."
"Bought it for my mum. Bought another for myself. The velvet feels like a five-star hotel pillow, not a ₹2,500 travel one."
A few things
worth knowing.
Still curious? Write hello@xmypick.in — a real human in Bengaluru replies within a working day.
Why ₹2,499? Won't a ₹500 pillow do?
You're paying for the materials and the make. CertiPUR memory foam from Coimbatore, OEKO-TEX velvet from Surat, a real neodymium clasp, a rip-stop carry sleeve — and the labour to put it all together by hand in Bengaluru. The ₹500 pillows use recycled polyfill that flattens in months. We'd rather make one pillow you keep for years than three you replace.
What does the 100-night trial really mean?
Take it on a real trip. Take it on three. If you don't love it inside 100 days of buying, we send a free pickup courier to your door and refund the full amount. No questions, no restocking fee, no return shipping. You only need the original box.
Will it survive Indian monsoons and humidity?
Yes. The velvet sleeve is OEKO-TEX certified and quick-dries; the foam core is hydrophobic and sealed against moisture; the clasp is brass-coated to resist corrosion. We've stress-tested the whole assembly at 95% humidity for 30 days — no mildew, no rust, no foam degradation.
Is it good for kids and shorter necks?
The magnetic clasp has four positions and fits necks from 13 inches to 18 inches — so anyone from about 11 years old up. For kids under 10, it works but is on the larger side; we're working on a kids' version for late 2026.
Shipping & COD details?
Free shipping anywhere in India, 2–5 working days. COD is available for orders under ₹5,000 across most pincodes — there's no extra fee. Same-day dispatch for orders placed before 2 pm IST on weekdays.
What's the deal with the tree planting?
For every pillow we sell, we plant a tree along the Konkan coast through a partnership with SankalpTaru. You'll get a paper tag in your box with the GPS coordinates of your tree and a photo after six months.
The pillow for the
long way home.
Free shipping pan-India. 100-night trial. Two-year warranty. One tree planted with every order along the Konkan coast.
