  • Choose Smooth Knit for a balanced step up in softness and flexibility.
  • Choose Natural Velvet for a warm, plush surface in cooler weather.
  • Choose Two Way Tricot for a soft, stretchy premium cover with detailed printing.
  • Choose Upgraded Two Way Tricot when maximum softness, stretch, and refined detail are the priorities.

Match the cover to the inner pillow

The cover and inner pillow should use the same dimensions. Common options include 120 × 40 cm, 150 × 50 cm, 160 × 50 cm, and 180 × 60 cm, but the exact choices vary by listing. Measure an existing inner pillow before ordering.
