Go Neck PillowUpdated 18 days ago

To keep your favorite travel companion in peak condition, think of the cleaning process in two simple parts: a "spa day" for the cover and a "quick refresh" for the core.

1. The Outer Sleeve (The Cover)

The fabric sleeve is 100% machine washable—perfect for whisking away the dust of the road.

  • The Setting: Pop it into the machine at a low temperature (30ºC / 86ºF) on a nylon or polyester setting.

  • The Soap: Use a splash of mild detergent, but skip the fabric softener to keep the fabric's integrity.

  • A Pro-Tip: Before you start the wash, press the closure straps together. This prevents the VELCRO® brand closures from tangling or catching.

  • Drying: Always air-dry the sleeve to maintain that premium fit.

2. The Memory Foam Core (The Heart)

The supportive memory foam core is where the magic happens, but it’s a bit of a homebody—it stays far away from the washing machine!

  • The Method: Spot-Cleaning Only. If the foam needs a refresh, simply use a damp cloth with a little mild soap to gently wipe away any spots. This keeps the foam clean without damaging its "squishy" support.

  • The "No-Go" Zone: Never machine wash, tumble dry, iron, bleach, or dry clean the memory foam. These can break down its structure, so sticking to a gentle hand-wipe is the way to go.
