The Orthopaedic Neck Pillow  (available on instayouth.sg) is made of super soft fleece and looks well… like a neck brace. But if you look past that and its seemingly meagre features, it’s in fact, one of the most innovative and best travel pillows to have graced the market.

This Orthopaedic Neck Pillow includes a few stiff ribs under the cloth on one side that can be placed wherever your head tends to loll over at — on the left, right or even under your chin. Once you’ve positioned it, simply velcro on the other end of the scarf and you’re ready for dreamland. At less than 230g, it’s light enough to slip into your carry-on bag for both short and long-haul flights, and can be thrown into a washing machine whenever you feel like it! However, one downside is that it may not always work for those who tend to shift positions in their sleep.

2. Inflatable Neck Pillow

Simply control the firmness when inflating the pillow and set it to your individual preference.

Pack it into the handy, lightweight packsack when not in use and remove the soft velvet pillowcase for washing.

3. Inflatable Outdoor Pillow
