An ergonomically shaped, lightweight pillow with lots of incorporated technology to promote comfort.
Big Agnes says
Just forget about using your jacket for a pillow. Wake up with a stiff neck, and can't get comfy? All this will become a thing of the past--even for the ultralight traveler. The AXL Air Pillow is light, at a scant 1.7oz, with huge benefits, including packing down to the size of an energy bar. The offset I-beam construction provides consistent stability, the four-way stretch nylon is smooth next to skin and the micro-adjust valve allows you to control how firm or soft your dreamy pillow should be.
Our Verdict
Big Agnes' has an ergonomic shape which is optimised to save weight, it uses i-beam baffles to support your head really well, spreading the pressure across the pillow. For some strange reason BA have used a smaller valve on this pillow so its not compatible with the pumphouse pumpsack. But it has an anti-fungal coating on the inside so even the moisture from your breath when blowing it up won't turn into something nasty inside.
