What are they made from?

The original Putnam Pillow is made from cold cure polyurethane foam. The memory foam version is made from a very dense memory foam. Both pillows are made from the exact same molds which remain unchanged since design conception. So regardless of the material you choose your pillow will still have all the same design features.
