Super King Pillows

How big is a king size pillow?

A king size pillow (we call them super king pillows) are 50cm x 90cm. That’s 15cm wider than a standard pillow. Super king pillows are ideal for making larger beds look more inviting. Standard pillows can look as if they’re a bit ‘lost’ in the space at the top of a larger bed, whereas super king pillows fit perfectly.

How much bigger should a pillowcase be than the pillow?

If you have large pillows, you might be wondering what size pillowcase to choose. Fortunately, that’s an easy decision – we sell pillowcases in sizes that match the pillow sizes we sell. That means a super king pillow would need a super king size pillowcase. We wouldn’t recommend you try to squeeze a super king pillow into a standard pillowcase. The filling will get compressed and may become uncomfortable. Find out more about choosing the right pillow in our pillow buying guide.
