    Make it a set

    Four reasons we love Koala Pillow [2nd Gen]

    • You'll fall asleep faster

      CoolThread™ fabric feels instantly cool to the touch, helping you drift off faster and stay comfy all night long. It brings that fresh-side-of-the-pillow feeling — every time you lie down.

    • Sleep deeper all night

      PolarBands® act as thermal highways — drawing excess heat away from the pillow surface to help keep you cool and comfy throughout the night. That’s why the [2nd Gen] sleeps 2.7°C cooler than its predecessor*.

    • Customise your comfort

      We think personalised comfort matters, so we made the pillow adjustable. Zip both sides for extra firmness, unzip for a softer feel, or mix it up for something in between.

    • It flips for the season

      To keep things fresh and seasonal, we've added a removable, washable cover that flips between cosy organic cotton and cool-to-the-touch CoolThread™. One side for winter, one side for summer. Easy as.

    Re-engineered for ridiculously good rest

    We’ve re-engineered the pillow with everything you need. Making it easier and quicker than ever to slip into sleep. Get ready for a ridiculously good rest on the cooler, cleaner and consistently comfortable Koala Pillow [2nd Gen].

    Did someone say 2.7°C cooler?*

    Yup, we did. Inside, PolarBands® draw heat away while you sleep, helping maintain a comfy sleep temperature. On the summer side, CoolThread™ fibres instantly feel cooler to the touch — so you can slip off to sleep faster. It’s very cool, literally.

    It’s four pillows in one

    Every head is different. So we’ve added adjustable features. Simply zip, half-zip, or unzip to change the firmness. Then flip between the organic cotton side for chilly winter nights and the revolutionary CoolThread™ side to stay cool on hot summer nights.

    Designed to keep you clean and comfortable

    A cleaner pillow means a better sleep. We’ve added washable covers, treated with antimicrobial tech and made using PFAS-tested fabrics, to keep your pillow pristine — night after night, sleep after sleep, wash after wash.

    A sleep that’s better for you and the planet

    It’s a good sleep, made of good stuff. The core of the Koala Pillow [2nd Gen] contains foam with 16 % bio-based content derived from soybean oil. Even better, the winter-side fabric is made using the equivalent of four recycled 500 ml PET bottles – diverted from landfill and spun into soft, supportive fibres.  Better in than out, we reckon.

      The best pillow I've found!

      I've tried so many pillows, from Dunlopillo, Goose down, other branded expensive pillows, but this is hands down the best. I'm a side sleeper so i need something a little higher, and the firmness of this pillow is perfect. As for the cooling side of the pillow, what a treat in Sydney summer! Highly recommend!!

      Absolutely Love the Koala Pillow (2nd Gen)!

      I couldn’t be happier with the Koala Pillow 2nd Gen. From the first night, it was clear this is a thoughtful upgrade—noticeably more supportive while still keeping that soft, cloud-like comfort Koala is known for. The balance between firmness and plushness feels just right, helping keep my neck aligned without feeling stiff or bulky.

      What really stands out is how adaptable it is. Whether I’m sleeping on my side or back, the pillow holds its shape and provides consistent support throughout the night. The cover is smooth and breathable, which makes it comfortable even on warmer nights.

      Overall, this pillow has genuinely improved my sleep quality. It feels premium, well-designed, and durable—definitely a worthwhile upgrade. If you’re considering a new pillow and want something comfortable, supportive, and reliable, the Koala Pillow 2nd Gen is an easy recommendation.

    PolarBands™ are an innovative cooling technology that are designed to remove excess body heat in order to achieve a naturally comfortable temperature.

Wash the cover with like colours on a cold gentle cycle, turning it inside out and closing the zippers before popping it into your machine. Make sure not to bleach, soak, rub, or wring out the pillow cover, and do not tumble dry, iron, or dry clean it. Make sure to line dry your pillow cover in the shade. Once the cover is completely dry, you can replace it back onto the core, matching the "Summer" and "Winter" labels to ensure the cover goes back on in the correct orientation.
