    I have the klymit pillow and it's very cool, but I recommend not inflating it fully to use in a hammock. I only inflate mine about 1/4 of the way.

    I had to read all three pages to get to someone who sues the Klymit X-Pillow. It's uninsulated so stays cool. I also only add 1-1.5 breaths . The X nests my pony tail when I'm on my back and the it's wide enough to keep the fabric off my face.

    Do you guys/gals that are using the Klymit use the larger size or the standard? Seems there is multiple sizes. Thanks, think I might try that one.

    I have an inflatable. I had to test a few at REI because some of them - maybe the most expensive one's - were very loud because of their specialized (heat reflecting) fill. And I don't like nylon against my skin so I'd use a light felt "pillow case". But usually, if I use a pillow at all, it's to support a knee. Using it under my head tilts it up too much. The hammock support is enough.

    Have posted before on my search for a pillow. The worst for me is the stuff sac pillow sac. The best are:
    1. S2S Aeros https://youtu.be/oktoLKGhRMA
    2. HG Down Pillow
    3. Klymit Pillow = https://youtu.be/i9E__bKPLu8

    All have pro's and con's. I leave the S2S in Hammock for 3 Season. Prefer the HG Down for Winter. Like the Klymit Pillow best for non hammock - ground or shelter use.

    Good Luck in your search.

    The X Pillow I have is actually a Massdrop exclusive. It's a little smaller than the standard X Pillow at 14 x 11 x 3.5 in. It works well for me but I wouldn't use it on the ground 'cause the top and bottom are 20D nylon.

    I've had good success with the REI Travel Pillow. It's actually more of a neck pillow, so it allows my head to actually rest on the hammock itself, which seems to be a little cooler than being surrounded by the pillow itself. It's light and cheap and I've also been able to use it on travel which is a bonus.

    And here's a link to the review of the pillow I did a few months back.

    I got this one on your recommendation, works great! I have a cocoon as well that I now use as my knee pillow.
