Description

The Woolshire pillow is a Standard or Queen (20" × 30") wool pillow with an organic cotton inner case. Handmade in northern Idaho from virgin wool sourced from ranchers across the western US, cleaned and carded without chemicals.

The carding process stretches the wool fiber into batts. That's what keeps our pillows from clumping like loose-fill wool does. The cotton inner case is long-staple organic cotton from Texas family farms. It's undyed, with no pesticides or additives.

Wool is naturally hypoallergenic, mold-resistant, and temperature-regulating. Cool in summer, warm in winter, breathable year-round.

A note on settling: because there are no chemicals in our wool, the batting will compress slightly during the first six months of regular use. Sleep on different parts of the pillow, flip it occasionally, and fluff by hand to keep it even. If you prefer high loft, the Extra Full option uses compressed wool to resist settling.

Care Instructions

Wool pillows almost never need a full wash. A clean pillowcase, the occasional spot clean, and a sunny afternoon every few months handle most of it.

Spot clean with cold water and a wool-safe detergent.

Sun-air the whole pillow every month or two to freshen it.

Hand-fluff daily to maintain loft.

Never machine wash and never tumble dry. Both cause felting.

For a full wash or deep cleaning, follow our complete guide: How to Wash a Wool Pillow.

Sleep As Nature Intended

Natural Virgin Wool

Woolshire pillows were built as nature into them. When you lay on wool you are connecting your sleep to nature. They have no chemical gases, unlike memory foam and polyfill pillows.

Our pillows trace their roots back to how our ancestors slept. In a world of cheap, mass-produced, and synthetically made products, the Woolshire Pillow is a champion of a bygone era, a champion of quality. At The Woolshire we reject the plastic mindset, no chemical baths, no micro-plastic shedding, fashioned and crafted by a family of artisans.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL & MOISTURE RESISTANT

Wool naturally regulates body temperature. During the summer months, it vents heat and in the winter, it will keep you nice and cozy. 

Wool pillows are also naturally moisture-wicking, which makes them more resistant to the accumulation of mildew and dust mites. As a result, our wool pillows are naturally hypoallergenic and perfect for humid environments. 

Crafted For Comfort

Each one of our wool pillows is 100% handmade. All of the measurements, cuts, and sewing are done by hand at our Idaho base, which allows us to build an incredibly comfortable and durable pillow. We value quality over efficiency. 

Woolshire pillows are made with materials sourced from the U.S., which allows us to tightly control over quality. The wool we use comes from the Northwest U.S. and our cotton is sourced from Texas. It all comes to Idaho where we make the pillow you’re sleeping on. 

Common Questions

Are Wool Pillows Good For You?

Wool pillow, made the way they should be, are the healthiest pillows you can sleep on. Between being non-toxic and 100% natural there is no better option.

Do Wool Pillows Go Flat?

Wool will compress over the first month or more of using them. However, you can pick from our many fill options and size up if you're worried about your pillow not having enough support.

Can You Wash Wool Pillows?

Yes! We have an in-depth guide under "Wash & Care" on this page. Since wool is a natural material you do have to be careful when washing your pillow so as not to create unnecessary damage to the fibers.
