Kind of what I do. I bring a regular size pillow case with me and put all my spare clothes in it, plus a small back packing pillow. Pack goes along my side for a body type pillow. Pillow case up top.side sleeper. 6’3” Bigger guy with wide shoulders. I use at least two pillows at home.
I played around with my sleep system and pillows are tough. Here is what I use now:
I start with a sea to summit pad. I use their ether Light. 6 foot wide rectangle version. 4” thick. I place my pack at the head, off the pad. Pack frame up. I take a stuff sack Turned inside out. I put my inflatable sea to summit pillow in the bottom. Extra clothes and soft gear go on top. that gives me enough height be comfortable.
