Finally, a travel pillow that won’t make people want to punch you. From the makers of the Air Bed comes the Air Pakk, a backpack with an inflatable and adjustable padding. It also has removable inner pockets and outer covers.

The Pocket Pillow is a throw pillow with two pockets on one side. Use it to hold small objects like a bottle or a remote control (unless your remote control is also a pillow). We prefer the plain version – it’s not too gaudy.
