Natural pillow fill may contain feathers or down but synthetic are usually polyester fill so if you are alergic to feathers like I am you can't have feathers in your home.

Hello,
Natural fill pillows, such as those with feathers and down, offer superb resilience and adjustability and can last up to 10 years if cared for properly. Down also has a natural ability to wick away moisture and its light and lofty characteristics provide superior adjustable comfort without added weight.
Many synthetically filled pillows are hypoallergenic and present a less expensive option, however they should be replaced every 1-2 years or when they lose their loft. Polyester fills are available in a variety of qualities and price ranges and are a good choice when youâre looking for something hypoallergenic. Microgel polyester fill is extremely soft â its silky construction makes it the closest in feeling to natural down. Cluster polyester fill mimics natural down clusters by shaping the polyester fibres into little balls. Like down, cluster polyester pillows can be âre-fluffedâ to maintain their shape and support.
Thanks for shopping Sears.
