The Buttress Pillow is a novelty latex pillow shaped like a pair of buttocks, sold direct and funded on Kickstarter with more than 30,000 units sold. It is made of all-natural latex, which gives it a springy, resilient feel rather than the slow sink of memory foam. It suits side and back sleepers who want a soft, supportive prop for their knees, lower back or head, and shoppers who like a playful gag gift. Against ordinary shaped pillows it stands out on novelty and latex durability, but it is a single fixed shape with no adjustable loft, so it is not a fit for everyone.

Owners rate it highly, calling it softer and more supportive than expected and fun to own. Most praise the latex feel and the sleep comfort; a few find the shape awkward or the latex firmer than they wanted.
The Buttress Pillow is a butt-shaped pillow made from natural latex foam. It is precision-molded in one solid piece and wrapped in a silky yoga-pant cover. The foam is made from tree sap and is not memory foam.
The center valley cradles the head and neck, and the gap between the cheeks keeps the ears and face from being pressed. The thighs can be moved closer to or farther from the neck to change the amount of lift and support. The molded latex core is built to hold its shape, and the latex is breathable and naturally hypoallergenic.
Side sleepers rest the head in the valley and slide one thigh under the neck. Back sleepers nestle the head and neck in the center valley and bring the thighs closer for more lift. Stomach sleepers lie face-down between the thighs, where the gap allows airflow. All models suit side, back and stomach sleepers.
