Pillow recommendations

Dear fellow Gym Rats - can you reccomend the perfect pillow? They are either too hot, too big or not big enough. I’m 6’2 195 - broad shoulders - thank you!

I love this pillow! I'm 6'6", weigh 220 lbs and 90% of the time I sleep on my side:

Had the pillow for a few years now and absolutely love it.

I like the Pillow Cube, but needed to use a knee pillow in conjunction with it to feel like I was aligned properly when side sleeping. More recently started using a pillow between my arms too to prop up the top shoulder some.

Did you get the standard or the side sleeper version?

Side sleeper; I love the cutout, much nicer than a normal pillow

Sobakowa - drops pillow

I have a second, but use it mainly to provide a wind/light block. My wife loves fans and isn't working right now.

I’ve tried a shredded memory foam pillow in the past and it slept really hot to me, didn’t seem to breathe like a traditional feather pillow.
