Nimbus | Ultralight Pillow 105g
Stop Sleeping on Your Jacket.
It's midnight. You've balled up your riding jacket for a pillow. By 2am it's unrolled, a zip is pressed into your cheek, and your neck is bent at an angle you'll feel for the whole next day. A bad pillow doesn't just cost you sleep, it costs you the morning after.
The Nimbus gives you a full-size, soft pillow at camp for 105g, packed to the size of your palm.
Built for
Most people make do with one of two bad options.
The rolled-up jacket. It's free, but it's lumpy, it unravels overnight, and it's covered in zips, dust and whatever the day threw at it.
The bare inflatable. It's light, but it feels like sleeping on a pool toy. The plastic sticks to your face on warm nights, squeaks when you move, and slides off the mat at 3am.
Either way you wake up stiff, and a stiff neck on a long riding or hiking day is a long day.
The Nimbus wraps a fibre-backed inner in a soft-touch polyester lining. Your face rests on cushioned fabric, not plastic, and the pillow holds its shape under your head instead of collapsing or bouncing.
At 46 × 30cm, it's a full-size pillow surface in the world of compact pillows
Campfire smoke, sunscreen and a few days of trail don't have to live on your pillow. The lining comes off and goes in the wash, so every trip starts fresh.
At 105g, the Nimbus rolls into its compression carry bag small enough for a jersey pocket, pannier bag or hip belt. It weighs less than the jacket you were going to use instead.
- Nimbus pillow inner
- Soft-touch removable lining
- Compression carry bag
- Emberline Core seals the top. It has 850FP grey goose down and an honest -1°C comfort rating.
- Baseline R8 seals the bottom. It has an R8.0 rating, tested to ASTM F3340-18.
- Nimbus finishes the setup. In Solara Nightfall, it's designed to slot into the Emberline's pillow pocket, so it stays where your head is all night instead of sliding off.
Each piece does a job the others can't. Get all three as the Sleep System bundle and save $41.
- Same-day dispatch from Brisbane on orders placed before 3pm AEST weekdays
- Free Australian shipping on orders over $150. Add the Nimbus to an Emberline or Baseline order and it rides along free.
Comparable ultralight camp pillows from the well-known imported brands sit around $50 to $80 in Australia. The Nimbus is $36 because we sell direct: no distributor margin and no retail markup. It does the same job for $14 to $44 less, which makes it the cheapest sleep upgrade in your kit.
Leave the jacket in the pannier. Sleep on something proper.

FAQs
Does the Nimbus work without the Emberline?
Yes. The Nimbus is a standalone pillow. Paired with the Emberline, it slots into the bag's pillow pocket so it stays under your head all night instead of sliding off.
How do I keep it clean?
The soft-touch lining comes off and goes in the wash, so campfire smoke, sunscreen and a few days of trail don't live on your pillow. Every trip starts fresh.
How small does it pack?
It rolls into its compression carry bag at about the size of your palm, small enough for a jersey pocket, pannier bag or hip belt. The whole thing weighs 105g.
When will my order ship?
Orders placed before 3pm AEST on weekdays leave our Brisbane warehouse the same day. Australian orders over $150 ship free.
What if it's not right for me?
You have 30 days to return it, provided it is unused condition, and it is covered by our 3-year warranty.
