About Performance® Pillows

Performance® Pillows are the world's only pillows personalized to fit your unique body type, sleep position, and temperature preference for optimal comfort, support, and alignment. If you’re constantly waking up with a stiff neck, overheating at night, or adjusting a pillow that just doesn’t feel right, it’s because your pillow wasn’t built for you.

Unlike basic one-size-fits-all pillows, Performance® Pillows come in a range of sizes to ensure proper spinal alignment for your body type and sleep position. Whether you need a stomach, back, or side sleeper pillow, we have the perfect fit for you. Every Performance® Pillow features innovative fabric technologies to enhance your sleep comfort, including cooling pillows to prevent overheating, moisture-wicking pillows to stop night sweats, and ultra-breathable pillows that maximize airflow. Additionally, Performance® Pillows are available in a variety of feels—from adaptive and conforming pillows for a more plush, cushioned feel to elevating and responsive pillows for more structured support—each designed to deliver a completely personalized sleep experience, night after night.

A game-changer for hot sleepers, Performance® Pillows are built for breathability, featuring our patented airflow technology that increases ventilation throughout the pillow, continuously circulating fresh air around your head and neck to assist in your body’s natural temperature regulation. Our breathable, ergonomic pillows support deeper, uninterrupted sleep and help optimize your rest and recovery so you wake up refreshed, recharged, and ready to take on the day.

Unlock Your Best Night’s Sleep: The Science Behind Choosing the Right Pillow

Sleep is the foundation of health, energy, and performance. Yet for most people, the role of the pillow in getting a truly restorative night’s rest is underestimated. The truth is simple: the wrong pillow can leave you tossing, turning, and waking up sore, while the right pillow can unlock your body’s natural ability to recover, recharge, and wake ready for the day ahead.

At BEDGEAR®, we believe sleep is personal. That’s why every pillow in our collection is engineered with one goal in mind—to adapt to you. Whether you’re a side sleeper who needs deeper support, a hot sleeper searching for cooling relief, or someone who wants a pillow that evolves with your lifestyle, we build performance gear for your bed so you can perform better in life.

Why Your Pillow Matters More Than You Think

Pillows are more than just a soft surface for your head. They are the bridge between your spine and your sleep position. If that bridge is misaligned—too high, too low, or lacking proper support—you pay the price in restless nights and groggy mornings.

Clinical research shows that poor pillow support can increase neck strain by up to 35%, creating muscle tension and reducing sleep quality. Over time, that means more than just discomfort: it can impact mood, energy, and even productivity during the day.

That’s why our design philosophy is simple: don’t force your body to adjust to your pillow—build a pillow that adjusts to your body.

Choosing the Best Pillow for Your Sleep Style

Everyone sleeps differently. To help you find the pillow that feels like it was made just for you, here’s a breakdown of the best pillow options by sleep position.

Pillows for Side Sleepers

Side sleepers make up the largest percentage of sleepers, but also face the greatest risk of spinal misalignment. A pillow that’s too thin allows the head to tilt downward, while one that’s too thick forces the neck upward. The solution is a higher-loft pillow that fills the space between your shoulder and head.

BEDGEAR® Side Sleeper Favorites:
  • Cooling pillows with breathable performance fabrics
  • Firmer, supportive cores that keep the head aligned
  • Contoured designs that reduce shoulder pressure
Pillows for Back Sleepers

Back sleepers need balanced support: not too high, not too low. The right pillow should cradle the natural curve of the neck while keeping the head aligned with the spine.

BEDGEAR® Back Sleeper Favorites:
  • Medium-loft pillows for neutral positioning
  • Responsive foams that adapt quickly to movement
  • Cooling covers to prevent heat build-up
Pillows for Stomach Sleepers

Sleeping face-down creates unique challenges. Too much loft can strain the neck and lower back, but too little leaves the face pressing uncomfortably into the mattress. Stomach sleepers thrive on low-loft, soft, breathable pillows that reduce strain while keeping airflow open.

BEDGEAR® Stomach Sleeper Favorites:
  • Thin, soft performance pillows
  • Cooling fabrics to minimize overheating
  • Flexible fill that moves with you

Cooling Technology: Say Goodbye to Night Sweats

One of the most common pillow complaints? Overheating. Traditional pillows—especially memory foam—trap heat and moisture, forcing you to flip your pillow throughout the night.

At BEDGEAR®, we take a different approach. Our pillows are engineered with:
  • Airflow Channels: Ventilated cores for maximum breathability
  • Moisture-Wicking Fabrics: Pull sweat away to keep you dry
  • Cool-to-the-Touch Covers: Instant relief when your head hits the pillow

This isn’t luxury—it’s science. By keeping your sleep surface cooler, you help regulate body temperature, which plays a key role in cycling through restorative sleep stages.

Personalization: One Size Doesn’t Fit All

You wouldn’t wear running shoes that don’t fit your feet. Why settle for a pillow that doesn’t fit your sleep style? That’s why we’ve developed a range of pillows with different lofts, firmness levels, and cooling technologies—so you can customize comfort.

The BEDGEAR® Difference

We’re not a bedding company—we’re a performance sleep company. Every product we make is designed to help you wake ready. Here’s what sets us apart:

  • Innovation First: Our pillows use proprietary technologies like Ver-Tex® cool-to-the-touch fabric and Air-X® airflow panels.
  • Sustainability: We engineer long-lasting pillows that maintain loft and support far beyond traditional options.
  • Mission Driven: From athletes to busy parents, we empower people to achieve more through better sleep.

The right pillow depends on how you sleep. Back sleepers need medium support, side sleepers need a firmer, higher-loft pillow, and stomach sleepers need a softer, lower-loft option. If you move around at night, an adjustable pillow is best. With BEDGEAR’s breathable, cooling designs, you’ll always find the fit that keeps you aligned and comfortable.

Most pillows should be replaced every 18–24 months as they lose their shape and support. If you notice neck pain, flat spots, or constant fluffing, it’s time for a new one. BEDGEAR pillows are engineered with durable, breathable materials to last longer, helping you stay cool and supported night after night.

Cooling pillows are worth it if you sleep hot or wake up sweaty. They’re designed to move heat and moisture away, helping you stay cool and comfortable all night. BEDGEAR cooling pillows use breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics to keep your head and neck at the right temperature so you sleep deeper and wake up feeling better.

Memory foam relies on body heat to mold around you, which can trap warmth and feel less responsive. Performance foam is designed to be breathable, supportive, and quick to adapt when you move.

BEDGEAR performance foams keep air flowing and your body aligned so you stay cool and comfortable all night.

One pillow can’t fit everyone, your sleep position and body type determine the right support. Side, back, and stomach sleepers all need different pillow heights and firmness. BEDGEAR offers performance pillows in multiple builds so every sleeper can find their perfect fit.

Most BEDGEAR pillows have removable, machine-washable covers — wash in cold water and air-dry for best results. Use a pillow protector to keep your pillow fresh and extend its life. Never wash the foam core, but you can spot-clean and air-dry if needed.

The right pillow can help reduce snoring by keeping your head and neck aligned so your airway stays open. Back sleepers usually need medium support, while side sleepers benefit from a higher-loft pillow. BEDGEAR performance pillows come in different builds to support healthier breathing, but they are not a medical treatment for sleep apnea.

Most pillows can’t go in curbside recycling, but you can often donate them to animal shelters or textile recycling centers. Gently used pillows make great pet bedding. If your pillow is worn out, check for local specialty recycling programs to keep it out of landfills.
