This travel pillow looks like it's attacking you but actually just wants to give you a hug
Sleeping while traveling isn't the easiest thing to do. It's impossible to get comfortable, and good luck waking up without a massive pain in your neck.
There are countless travel pillows that go around the back of your neck, but do they actually work? Heck no. A Kickstarter project took this communal issue and created a unique solution in the form of a pair of oversized and slightly hilarious pillow hands: meet the MonPère a travel pillow.
At first glance, these hands look like they're coming for your head. But there's a method to the madness: these mitts stay secure whichever way you bend them and literally hold your head in place — making for a deeper sleep, better posture, and less bouncing around.
No window to lean your head on? No problem — MonPère apparently offers comfortable head support in any position, even if you got stuck with the aisle seat.
