Squishmallows' range of soft, squishy, and irresistibly huggable collectibles has captured hearts worldwide, so much so that the SquishPillow by Original Squishmallows is debuting to offer the same comfort and charm for sleep. These super cozy pillows feature Squishmallows' proprietary super-soft fill and a pillowcase made from the brand's signature velvety material.
"When we learned so many were already using their Squishmallows as pillows, we knew we had to dream up and disrupt the home goods category by developing a branded pillow unlike any other,” said Laura Zebersky, President and Chief Commercial Officer, Jazwares.
These fun and functional pillows tap into the collectible nature of Squishmallows with six themed pillowcase styles (sold separately) and more to come later this year.
